The republic of China has NOTHING to do with People’s Republic of China. The Republic of China is the country more commonly known as “Taiwan” today, while the PRC is that China the USA hates a lot. We normally do not refer ourselves as a part of China even though we are a part of the Republic of China. A huge part, so huge that it is basically 100%. We are Taiwanese, and we are proud to be ruled by the democratic nation of the Republic of China (Taiwan). But we don’t call ourselves “Chinese”.
Taiwan is an independent sovereign country. It has its own constitution, democratically-elected leaders, and about 300,000 active troops in its armed forces. The Chinese Communist Party regime has never governed Taiwan, and Taiwan is not a part of the PRC.
Oh my goodness! Too many walks and I'd panic.. lol glad you knew where you'd go. I'd freak out. All I can see are Chinese characters on the walls and prints. But thank you for sharing your trip. Very helpful.
*they speak Cantonese as well, theres no such language as Taiwanese. it's mainly spoken in Taiwan/HK & Macau but Mandarin is also spoken too, just not common. similar to Mandarin but the characters & pronouciation are more complex
Actually, there is a language called Taiwanese, which is based on Hokkien but has adopted many Japanese words. Before the KMT regime from mainland China moved to Taiwan, Taiwanese was once the major language in Taiwan. Even nowadays, it is still one of the major languages in Taiwan, especially in the southern part. As for Cantonese, unfortunately, most Taiwanese don't speak it, except for those who have immigrated from Canton or Hong Kong. So basically, people in mainland China speak Mandarin plus their own local dialect, people in Taiwan speak Mandarin plus Taiwanese or Hakka or indigenous languages. People in HK and Macao speak Cantonese, plus Mandarin with a strong accent, and some of them are fluent in English as well.@@jerryl1354
Did you mean to say "Hokkien" instead of "Taiwanese"? Indeed, both Mandarin and Hokkien are popular in Taiwan. There's also a language called "Hakka" that is popular, too. Hokkien and Hakka are mostly the Southern Chinese languages. The Taiwanese Mandarin is largely the same as the Chinese Mandarin.
Taiwanese (dialect) is Hokkein which is the other de-facto language spoken in Taiwan alongside Mandarin Chinese (putting Hua or GuoYi). Hokkein is also spoken amongst the Chinese in The Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore. Mandarin Chineae is the national or common language in China, Taiwan, Singapore.

Great airport! Was there in 2016!
Not Chinese Republic of Taiwan, but Republic of China, which is different from the one in Beijing
Thank you for correcting
Taiwan is not part of China. Taiwan is an independent democratic country with its own elected government officials and military forces.
Your voice is good to hear 😊😊
good report

You can call Taiwan the Republic of Taiwan, if you want. Just like we call South Korea the Republic of Korea.
