Taiwan is a part of the geographical and cultural region commonly referred to as China, and is currently administered by the government called Republic of China (ROC), a democratic and free sovereign state that was the historical government of all of the China region from 1912 to 1949. It is not a part of the People's Republic of China (PRC), also known as Communist China, which was founded by Mao Zedong and has ruled mainland China since 1949.
The Qing Dynasty was overthrown and Republic of China (ROC) was established in mainland China in 1912.
At the end of World War II in 1945, Japan surrendered and gave Taiwan back to China according to Cairo Declaration. ROC then took control of mainland and Taiwan and was recognized as the only legal government in China
.
Meanwhile, because the Chinese Civil War between the ROC and the Communist Party of China is in progress, the ROC finally lost the civil war and its government fled to Taiwan in 1949. Still ROC claimed that it is the only government on mainland and Taiwan The Communist forces took control of mainland and founded the People's Republic of China (PRC) in the same year.
Since then, Mainland and Taiwan became separate. The People's Republic of China is now commonly known as China and the Republic Of China is now commonly known as Taiwan.
That's a complicated issue. The short version is that China says yes and Taiwan says no.
Taiwan's government used to be China's government, but it was overthrown by the communists in the 1940s. After the communists took over the Chinese mainland, the nationalists retreated to the island of Taiwan. China's new communist government planned to bring Taiwan under its control as well, but those plans were sidetracked by the Korean War. To this day, China and Taiwan have separate governments, each of which claims to be the only legitimate government of China.
So, really, China says yes and Taiwan says yes, they just disagree about which government is the one legitimate government of both the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.
