It most certainly does. Language is a powerful tool and has been heavily manipulated in the past to achieve a variety of different goals.That's why they call it SPELLing, because your casting a SPELLStay woke.
>>536264424it does. look at the name of taiwan vs formosa. taiwan brings a chinese image into one's head. formosa a bit more confusing. Taiwan should rename itself to Formosa to distance itself from China. Formosa with unique Formosan architecture, legal and cultural systems, flag, language, etc. How could China claim it? Taiwan with all Chinese thinggs... obviously China will claim it
>>536264424>Call "The Republic of China" the "country of Taiwan">Over one billion people's feelings instantly shatter into sheer anguish Nah, you're wrong.
WEST PHILIPPINE SEA>WEST PHILIPPINE SEAWEST PHILIPPINE SEA>WEST PHILIPPINE SEA
>>536265122That's what the DPP (Democratic Progressive Party) narrative is, and Mainlanders would hate us either it be ROC or Republic of Taiwan, they want only to gain full control over Taiwan.
>>536265132Serious question Weren't you guys sold by Spain to America The territory should've been settled since then, no?
>>536265762Why doesn't Taiwan just declare independence. I doubt China would invade.
>>536265931Officially we already did but no one gives a shitIt's similar to Kurdistan if you're familiar with that
>>536266002When did you declare independence? Your name is still Republic of China with a ROC flag.
>>536264792>A Chinese nation (Mandarin speaking, Hokkien Chinese) should erase its own Chinese name and culture and cuck itself to foreign colonial name naming and culture to be removed from its Chinese origin and get closer to Judeomuttsabhorrent post
>>536266052According to the abbo female president were government in exileYou could look up the governmental website, I'm certain they have English version. it'll say that Taiwan aka ROC is a country with full sovereignty
>>536266257>it'll say that Taiwan aka ROC is a country with full sovereignty...as China, not as Taiwan. No ROC government has dropped its claims over the mainland. Not like they mean anything after the 70s but still.
>>536266256If it wasn't for the Dutch, Formosa wouldn't even be Chinese. Before the 1600's, the vast majority of Formosa was indigenous Austronesians. The Dutch allowed mass Chinese immigration. Formosa wasn't historically Chinese. I don't know why people think this. It was settled by Chinese just as Europeans were settling the new world
>>536266378The capital is now in Taipei instead of the constitutional Nanking
>>536265856Yes but we were at war with Spain for our own independence so we rejected the idea that Spain could transfer our sovereignty to US without our consent which is why we had a war for independence against the US
>>536266393Ancient Chinese pulled off an incredible feat way before Western influence
>>536266393No shit, but I'm talking about the inhabitants of Taiwan as they are today, and the Austronesians are a tiny minority. Although it would be likely that if under PRC control in the 50s or so it would have been made an autonomous region for the natives.>>536266498I heard that you also dropped the claims over Mongolia?
>>536266723Mongolia gained independence a century ago, partially due to no one wants to inhabit a desolate land
>>536266513But you're now working under America/ZOG, is that not true?
>>536265132The irony of Jollibee being flip food is that the creator and owner is a chinese from china lmao
>>536266723the aboriginals were already completely outnumbered by 1947. The massive immigration of Mainlanders fleeing with the ROC only pushed Chinese ethnic dominance even further. I think it was inevitable. China was going through massive population explosion. Literally all of Southeast Asia was affected. Malaya (incl. Singapore) was over 50% Chinese at one point. Thailand, Indonesia, and the Phillippines all have millions of Chinese descendants. An Island of a relatively small quantity of people just off the coast of Fujian, the region most noted for its high emigration, was clearly going to get swamped by Chinese immigration, regardless of who controlled what quite honestly.
>>536266002>KurdistanAnon… that’s a pretty bad comparison
>>536266966yeah well ph is all mutted up
