China’s incursion into Taiwan again: How did the dispute between China and Taiwan start?

Taiwan’s first contact with China was in the year 1683 when Taiwan came under the control of the Qing dynasty.

But its role in international politics first came to the fore in the Sino-Japanese War (1894–95), in which Japan defeated the Qing dynasty and made Taiwan its first colony.

In 1949, Chiang and his party, the Kuomintang (KMT), lost a civil war to communists led by Mao Zedong. After which the Sheks fled to Taiwan and maintained administrative control over it.

Just as Mao was about to attack Taiwan to annex China, the Korean War broke out in 1950.

The war not only kept Mao busy assisting the communists in North Korea but also forced the United States to come forward for Taiwan’s security and independence.

Few people in present-day Taiwan support its integration with mainland China. There are two main reasons for this – ethnic nationalism and more importantly, civic nationalism.
