The nationalists fled to Taiwan after the communists took over Mainland China.
Taiwan is an island which has a different government than the Chinese mainland because the losing non-communist forces during the Chinese civil war fled to Taiwan leaving the communists to take over the mainland. The official title of Taiwan is the 'Republic of China'
The Communist Chinese own and occupy Taiwan. ___ No that is incorrect. The Communist Chinese DO NOT occupy Taiwan. Taiwan is called the Republic of China, a separate country from the People's Republic of China. At the end of the Chinese Revolution, Chaing Kai-Shek and the Kuomintang fled China and set up government in Taiwan. The existence of the Republic of China has been a contentious issue between Taiwan and mainland China.
The Chinese Communists finally succeeded in conquering mainland China in 1949, although some additional conflict and subjugating continued for years after. It was in this year, however, that the Nationalist government fled from the mainland to Taiwan, leaving the Communists as the (to many outside observers, surprising) masters of continental China.
When the Chinese Communists defeated the Chinese Nationalists (Kuomintang/Guomindang) in Mainland China, the Nationalists retreated to the island of Taiwan (also known as Formosa) and established rule over the island. To this day, one of the dominant political parties in Taiwan is the Kuomintang (which goes under the moniker of "the Blue Party").The irony is that because Kuomintang has unity with mainland China as an aspirational goal (as opposed to its political rivals which seek Taiwanese independence), the Communists in Mainland China prefer to negotiate with Kuomintang leaders in Taiwan than any other major Taiwanese political party.
They went to Taiwan and still are there today.
The Strait of Formosa separates Taiwan (aka, Formosa) from the mainland Chinese Provence of Fukien. The Strait is an arm of the Pacific Ocean that runs from the South China Sea to the East China Sea.
The Nationalist Chinese Party from Mainland China evacuated to the island of Taiwan in 1949. Taiwan is not a separate nation.

Chiang Kai-shek
When the People's Republic of China was established on the Chinese mainland in 1949, Chinese nationalists fled to the island of Taiwan. Since that occurrence, there has been a dispute over whether Taiwan is part of China or a separate, sovereign country.
By Taiwan I'm sure your are referring to the Republic of China (ROC). The ROC would say they are "The Chinese." But, by Chinese control I assume mean the People's Republic of China (PRC) or "Communist China." No, the ROC has not reunited with the PRC. Said another way, Taiwan/Formosa has not reunited with mainland China.
Taiwan is a country, and an island south of mainland China.
