Why did china refuse to accept Taiwan as an independent nation?

If Taiwan were to take the gamble and cross that line, the argument goes, it will have moved closer to "de jure independence," or legal separation from the mainland, and Beijing would have little choice but to engage it militarily. And yet, Taiwan has repeatedly "declared" its independence ever since the island's process of democratization began at the end of the last century.

What is the debate on China and Taiwan province?

The People's Republic of China recognises Taiwan as one of it's province. While the people from both sides of the sea often refers to each other as 'brothers and sisters'. It is clear however, the officials of Taiwan want it to be an independence country. But if you have lived in China for 10 years like I did, you can clearly see the passion of the 'Taiwaness' to not to be 'Taiwaness'. In the past, when Taiwan was at its peak power, China was still very poor, and this is one of the first reason that caused the officials of Taiwan to wish for independence. However as China is now every powerful, western countries do 'take sides'. For example: US stated it does not recognise Taiwan as a country. To be a globally recognised country, there must be a representitive at the United Nation, Taiwan has no such representitive.
