do you think taiwaan is a country?

YES of course, TAIWAN is a country. According to the books and maps and from what I know, it is as much a country as USA or Japan. I do have a feeling that this will be deleted because such post does not encourage interaction or discussion. It is actually answerable by Yes or No. I risked myself responding to this but I was just intrigued as to why you even asked.

This is historical problem,we the people in mainland China today,most do not understand the historical,after all,historical,after all,history is written by victors.As a Chinese man,still want some of the cross-strait harmony ,if not immediate reunification and do not lead to war.

I think that Taiwan is a country and it is situated in Asia. I think that China is different country. I think that I could visit Taiwan without needing a visa but I certainly need a visa for China. I don't know much about the history of Taiwan but I am interested to find out. I know this is a sensitive topic and I don't wish to upset anyone. I am very keen on traveling and know the world map very well indeed.

for me, Taiwan is a country because taiwan have own government, having territorial and border which known and internationally acclaimed. Although, in fact still a few countries admit it, but I think, it just becaused the political pressure from mainland China that forced the United States and many other countries recognize only one China that includes Taiwan's border region is a part of the border regions of China.

As a Chinese,I want to say loudly here,Taiwan is the immanent territory of China,Tainwan belong to China,we hope that the country can early reunification,hope that Tanwan can come the his mother!

Taiwan is definately a country. It has a government that is run from its capital Taipei. Although China has been fronting to have Taiwan as part of a one china that has not happen due to international politics that is played by the worlds power name the united states, uk, united nation. Taiwan has a good economy that is based on electronics that it manufacture. it is a great exporter of manufactured goods to many nations of the world including africa. In the past Taiwan was recognised as a country that is representing the people republic of china. But that has now changed and china has taken over that role. I do not think Taiwan will be unified with China in the nearest future. The Taiwan prefer to be on their own. But as Chinese Economy continue to grow very fast it is making many Taiwan to be worried about the new found status of the chinese.

Yes. Taiwan is a country and a legal regime in this country. I think Taiwan in Asia and around the world should be regarded as a democratic country in the forefront.

Definitely, Taiwan is a country on its own. Its government is doing well on its own and its economy is doing well also. At first I was confused even but I think I now know a little bit thanks to our guide when I was there. Their (Taiwan and China)roots are the same but Taiwan has developed a society or community separate from the mainland due to some political issues in the past.

What do you mean by questioning if Taiwan is a country? I just can't understand why you're questioning if it's a country or not. You said you tried communicating with other people regarding this. May I know why you're so into this query of yours?

Of course not,there are only 24 countries admitted that Taiwan is a country,in other word,more than 170 countries did not admitt.Those admitted countries are small counties,some of them are supported by material assistance from Taiwan goverment,reciprocally,they supported Taiwan to be a independent country.

I am not intersted in politics, but i know a rule in our normal life. A mother would never lose her children, and she never give up to let her children back. And China is a mother while Taiwai is one of her children.

Seeing as Taiwan is a country on the globe, I don't know why anyone wouldn't consider it to be one.
