No. China is the large land mass between Russia and Mongolia to the north, and India plus southeast Asia to the south.

Taiwan is an island nation off the southeast coast of China. It is populated by Chinese people, many of whom are descendants of those who fled with the Chinese leader, Chiang Kai Shek - when Mao took over mainland China in the late 1940s.

China still lays claim to Taiwan, but Taiwan is still an independent nation, of its own right, at present.

china does not want taiwan to be alone in the olympics so they refer it as to chinese taipei. the taiwanese do not want to be known as chinese taipei if u look at a world map it is known as taiwan. but some people in china call it chinese taipei. the taiwanese aint stupid, they know about china. and what they do there. they know if china get taiwan back they will be slaves to them. some taiwanese are haveing an identiny crisis thinking if there chinese or not.. the people of taiwan are very nice. dont get upset if they stair at you it is because they only see taiwanese and not many visiters oftan because taiwan aint that popular yet. it is known though for its beefy noodles. even though taiwan is not part of china the chinese goverment is in taiwan. so there lots of chinese people who live in taiwan. and also alot speak chinese. in china they say lies saying that taiwan is part of china. in 2007 people think this is the year china gonna take taiwan. but it never happened. and rumors in 2011 same thing never happened. here we are in 2012. when will china take over taiwan? that is something we will never know yet till it happens. but anyway china can takeover taiwan if they want but there just no need. they make buisness with each other though. by giveing taiwan there chinese food recipes to sell in taiwan. but they do know that taiwan will be back up by us if china attacks. some people wonder why does china enter the olympics? because they want to prove to the world how there system works best. china says " if your try to back away form us during the olympics we will invade taiwan" so they have no choice as to refer it as to chinese taipei. did this awnser your question? i hope it did i will be awnsering lots of questions about asia so most awnsers are going to be form me. i know i gave you more then what you asked but i wanted to give a full message on taiwan and the relates between china and taiwan. hope this helped
