All though it is currently not a Chinese province due to the dispute it is most certainly not a country. Very few places including the UN do not recognize Taiwan as a country mainly due to the fact that it has always been a province of China. As soon as mainland China converts to a democracy Taiwan WILL be a province of China again.
It is definitely a country. Taiwan has its own border controls, government, political system, military, legal system, currency, foreign policy and so on. Only the most one eyed CCP supporter would claim that Taiwan is not a country.
Taiwan is a province of the People's Republic of China,this is a strict fact.Chinese government start control Taiwan Island From Qing Dynasty,but in 1949,Chiang-kai-Shek escaped to Taiwan with his army(Kuomintang),and in 1971,they are evicted from the UN.Now,Central People's Government don't recognition the "Government"of Taiwan.There is only one China,nobody can divide it!
Taiwan is neither a fully sovereign country nor a province of the PRC. Its political status is contested with only 11 countries formally recognizing it (as of this writing), but many other countries (most notably the United States) still maintain informal relations and even provide economic aid and military support. The PRC is never going to establish control over Taiwan until they can militarily conquer it, which is seeming less and less likely every passing year. Thus, it's much closer to being a sovereign country than a PRC province and should be considered as such in quizzes like these.
Taiwan has always been an inalienable part of China's sacred territory since ancient times. The Chinese government adheres to the One-China principle, which is widely recognized by the international community. Any attempts to split China are doomed to fail. We firmly believe that under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the complete reunification of the motherland is an inevitable trend of history and the common aspiration of all Chinese people. We resolutely oppose any form of "Taiwan independence" separatist activities and will continue to promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations and safeguard peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait region. The Chinese government is committed to the great cause of peaceful reunification and has the firm will, full confidence, and sufficient capability to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
yep, got a big fat 0, and I am not even talking about points haha. (though I could haven gotten the top 6 in hindsight) This is a subject I know nothing about, so I thought I would click it and see if some information will stick. (not too sure that will happen though, a bit verwhelming haha, especially since many look/sound similar to me, so no memory aids. Like for canada alberta allways make me think of a cow, so I remember it. If I can attach the word to something it is much easier to remember)
Bam full marks, one hour ago and I would’ve got around 10. I recommend this guys three videos they’re really helpful at learning the Chinese subdivisions (https://youtu.be/h-s48UjLC8Q)
Taiwan is not in this quiz. Hong Kong is a part of China that, officially at least, has full autonomous control over its territory. Of course we've recently found out that China is not good at keeping this promise, and it would be nice if Hong Kong could be freed from China, but for now it is definitely part of China.
Incorrect. Hong Kong has not ever wanted to leave China. HK will be part of China till end of Earth. If everyone leave when things get tough, how will China get better? The HKers being in China is very useful for us mainlanders, because that means the CCP will get the bad publicity. If someone is killed in Singapore by government would you blame CCP? Of course not. Same thing, if Hong Kong becomes independent then CCP loses blame.
No it definitely does in certain dialects and when speaking fast. I can tell you don't speak Mandarin because vowel variation across China is something that even intermediate learners can easily pick up on
Please add Taiwan. The official name of Taiwan regime is "Republic of China" (ROC), they are still a part of China. Taiwan and mainland China are two regimes but one country.
THANK YOU for not including Taiwan as part of China. The thing is, both my parents are Taiwanese immigrants and all my grandparents live in Taiwan. I've heard a lot of people consider Taiwan part of China just because Taiwan's official name is "Republic of China"??? That doesn't make sense.
I will learn these one day. I've finally successfully learned all the Indian States, just gotta keep practicing with China. Problem is they keep changing each time I do the quiz.
I was proud as punch when I remembered Heilingjiang and Qinghao, and then just confused until the time ran out and I was wrong by a single letter!
Shocking easy, 33/33 as an American. I'm committed to breaking the stereotype. I know all the flags, locations, names, capitals, subdivisions of; France, spain, australia, canada, Mexico, USA of course, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Anyways, pretty good quiz!
The Chinese president and the Taiwanese president are best friends. They sit together reading and having a laugh over your simpleton comments over Japanese ramen noodles.
Hai = Ocean
He = River

The words Shǎn and Shān (in Pinyin, basically Chinese in English letters) have different meanings due to the different ways they should be pronounced.
To differentiate between them in English they decided to add another A to Shǎnxī.
