What is China's current official name?

People's Republic of China(PRC).

What was the official status pre-ww2?

It was part of Japan from 1995-1945 as a result of the Treaty of Shimonoseki.

Did that make his proclamation of retrocession legal?

Nope, but Chiang didn't care.

I understand that, and that makes the argument that it never broke from China as it was not part of China}

It was and is part of China. CKS, pretended it was China.

Whats your social credit score?

Social Credit was the name of a now defunct socially conservative party in Canada.

True.  Social Credit AKA "Socreds"  ruled BC for a long while .. like 40 years with only a single short NDP break



BC was fairly conservative until 1990 .. although it was their going VERY conservative that finished them



Odi - I think China is the only one issuing Social Credit scores, assuming they followed through on it

[Anonymous]

Well, seems if it was part of Japan (no matter how it got to be), it was fair game after they surrendered  & Chiang beat China to the draw

What happened to the sovereignty of Taiwan after Chiang acting as an agent of the victorious USA?



Did it automatically return to the then Republic of China as the generalissimo claimed?



No, that can only be accomplished through a treaty which is how Taiwan became part of the Empire of Japan..



Taiwan's soverignty has never been held by either the Republic of China or People's Republic of China for one day..



Chiang Kai Shek's authoritarian regime exercised effective territorial control over an area(Taiwan), but not sovereignty.

So, the last president of China before communism accepted the surrender of the Japanese, but he told the Chinese this was a legal return of Taiwan to China and it was not?

I´m aware that it is a Chinese thing.



I´m insinuating that Shen is an agent of the Chinese government.

Zhong Xina is a traitor.

She is saying it was a Canadian thing until the 1970's.

Retrocession Day in Taiwan is based on a lie started by dictator Chiang Kai Shek.

The big worry for me is that this issue is a matter for China.



That the US staunchly backs Taiwan is based on the same principle it backs Israel, South Korea and Ukraine.



It wants outposts close to their traditional enemies.



Does the average US citizen care much for Koreans, Israelis or Ukrainians?

[Frood]

The average American is fed a bunch of bs about American exceptionalism and evil adversaries which want to end liberty and godliness.

[Bricktop]

Has been for decades.



That's why their government gets away with sending their sons and daughters to die in jungles and deserts.

If it weren't for Pearl Harbor, much of the other conflicts never would have had public support....

[Odinson]

Its true that the attack on Pearl Harbor was convenient for Roosevelt and Churchill.

IN FDR's case, do you mean to enter the war?
