    Maybe, but they don’t want any part of that “Han Motherland” you speak of.

    I didn’t say anything about a Han Motherland, so I don’t know why you’re using quotation marks.

    And Taiwan does desire the reunification of Han areas. Under the government of the ROC.

      Again, yes, but I think there’s a lot of room to negotiate, the key sticking point is the CCP and that wall.

      The main landers would probably be OK with that too, considering the CCP killed more Chinese than Genghis Khan, the only people on the planet who don’t are the CCP

      no they don’t, they just want to be left alone.

      the only reason the old constitution hasn’t been amended is because China regularly threatens to start a full scale war if there’s any amendment to reflect the current reality, they would call it a “declaration of independence”.

        What makes you think that’s “the only reason”? Because some people on reddit said so?
