I always get curious about unrecognized states. I check the "T" section and there is no option for a "Taiwan" lol.

Didn't mean to make this political, just found it intriguing.

(Also fun fact: My grandmother is literally older than the country I was born in, PRC, in a way, she was technically born in a different country (ROC) than I was born in... well... I mean, same land, but a different state/government.)

De jure, the RoC extends to all of China. So does the PRC. De facto, the RoC is pretty much just Taiwan and the PRC is the rest.
