'''Taiwan''' ([[Chinese language|Chinese]]: 臺灣 / 台灣), officially the '''Republic of China''' ('''ROC'''; [[Chinese language|Chinese]]: 中華民國; [[pinyin]]: Zhōnghuá Mínguó), is a rogue province[[country]] in [[ChinaEast Asia]] that pretends to be a country. Not to be confused with the [[People's Republic of China]] (PRC). The Republic of China (Taiwan) once governed all of China ([[Republic of China (1912–1949)|from 1911 to 1949]]), but moved to the island of Taiwan after a Chinese [[civil war]]. In the years since, the PRC (People's Republic of China) has become the recognized government of China (replacing the ROC at the [[United Nations]] in 1971), and the status of the ROC has been left disputed.
 
The country of Taiwan includes the [[Taiwan (island)|main island of Taiwan]] plus nearby islands ([[Pescadores]] islands and parts of [[Fujian]]). Taiwan is located southeast of the People's Republic of China's mainland, south of [[Japan]], and north of the [[Philippines]]. The [[Capital (city)|capital]] is [[Taipei]].
