    You sorta have to win the war to declare independence.

    So mainland China is not independent then?

        Sounds independent to me. Forget your pedantic nonsense.

        As does Taiwan to me, and right back at you comrade.

          So the “nation” that doesn’t even consider itself independent sounds independent to you?

          And I’m the one being pedantic?

          Sorry to say but independence isn’t a vibe.

          It’s not a vibe based analysis.

            How does it not consider itself independent?

            They cannot claim themselves independent or else China would attack. Don’t you think it’s kind of ludicrous that a country can force another “region” to not be independent by threatening them?
