Carbon dioxide posted:Wtf is that site even about? Antti posted:I tried to figure out but I think the answer is "mental illness." Close enough. It seems to be some kind of Model UN, but for adults who want to change the current legislative system from a two-house system into a single-house parliamentary system. It came up in the Libertarian/jrodefeld thread because the current "Prime Minister" is in the Libertarian Party presidential primary.

Aliquid posted:of all the revanchist state policies, Taiwan's is the most To be fair, this is mostly wankery and fantasizing by the KMT (Nationalist Party). Everyone outside of that party tends to think that Taiwan should just be Taiwan.

Grand Fromage posted:There's also that if Taiwan renounced its claims to the mainland, the PRC could interpret that as declaring independence. I don't think there's anyone in Taiwan who takes that claim map seriously. I'm sure there's a few people in the KMT and a few other Nationalistic types that do.

SoggyBobcat posted:Didn't the KMT renounce their claims on Mongolia? I'm pretty sure I remember that being a thing somewhat recently. I'm struggling to remember, but I believe there was one of those tiny island townships that the PRC gave up on that recently decided or threatened to quit the ROC and join the PRC. Can't think of the name though, but I think it's one of those poorer regions that gets little support from the ROC and only exists as a middle finger to the PRC.

Whiz Palace posted:Chinese Google Maps show the South China Sea and Taiwan as PRC territory, but Hong Kong and Taipei are still marked as national capitals (circle + dot). Hong Kong and Taiwan are considered to be "special economic zones" and enjoy a legal status which is above just being a mere province in the PRC's eyes. That and someone at Google being lazy.

I'm loving how China is basically "Han's" with some Manchu up north. Because apparently the only kind of Chinese are Han.

Grand Fromage posted:I'm talking like 20 year olds, not grandparents. Korea's a very conservative place so it just stuck I suppose. Excess also is a Korean thing, they out American America on all sorts of food. Such as: Our french-fry pancake corndogs are bigger in Taiwan But they don't do the sugar or HFCS, just lightly brush ketchup on it.
