      Honestly, if that’s your take-away from what I said…then you didn’t understand any of it. China has no more “rights” over Taiwan, than Russia does over Ukraine.

          Lol! The “entire country of China” fell apart when Taiwan split off. If you really want to be technical about it, Taiwan actually represents the “real” government of China, since that’s where the previously existing government took refuge during the Communist revolution. All that remained of “China”, was on that island. What was created on the mainland was something new. Something different.

          The exact same situation occurred with Ukraine and the Russian Federation during the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union ceased to exist. In its place, separate countries were formed.
