Extractions: History of Taiwan Native People - The Aborigines Mainland Chinese Migration European Colonialism Japanese Colonialism ... Taiwan, Inc. Native People - The Aborigines (~8,000B.C. - 1400's A.D.) The first inhabitants of Taiwan were aborigines of 'Austronesian' descent who possibly migrated from the Pacific islands including Indonesia, Micronesia, Polynesia as well as the Philippines (their bone structure most closely resemble those of the aborigines on Taiwan). According to the government and international archealogists (through radio-carbon dating), Taiwan has been inhabited by people for over 10,000 years. They also believe Taiwan's links to with mainland China may also be just as old based on several stages of prehistoric tool development that match those of the mainland. There were two distinct groups of aborigines when the mainland Chinese first came to Taiwan. One lived on the plains of central/south-western Taiwan and the other lived in the mountains (a derogatory term for aborigines in Taiwan literally translates as"Mountain People.") The mountain residents were more violent and engaged in incessant fighting, head-hunting, and ritual tatooing, continuing up to the present century!

Extractions: Reference Desk Sponsored Links TripAdvisor Encyclopedia Taiwan The earliest Chinese settlements on Taiwan began in the 7th cent., chiefly from the mainland provinces of Fujian and Guangdong. The island was reached in 1590 by the Portuguese, who named it Formosa [=beautiful]. In 1624 the Dutch founded forts in the south at present Tainan, while the Spanish established bases in the north. The Dutch, however, succeeded in expelling the Spaniards in 1641 and assumed control of the entire island. They in turn were forced to abandon Taiwan in 1662, when Koxinga , a general of the Ming dynasty of China who had to flee from the Manchus, seized the island and established an independent kingdom. However, the island fell to the Manchus in 1683. Chinese immigration increased, and the aboriginal population was gradually pushed into the interior. Japan, attracted by the island's strategic and economic importance, acquired Taiwan by the Treaty of Shimonoseki (1895) after the First

Extractions: The Manchu (not the Han Chinese) established rule in Taiwan from 1683 to 1895. Japanese occupation of Taiwan (Formosa). Chinese occupation of Taiwan Escape of defeated soldiers from China to Taiwan. Taiwan completely independent from China. Taiwan was part of China for at most 4 years (1945-49) during the 20th century. 4 years out of 109 years is not a very strong justification for China to acquire Taiwan. Compare this with the German occupation of France during 1941-45. France was occupied by Germany for 4 of the last 109 years. Does this mean that Germany has the right to demand the reunification of France with Germany? Certainly not!

Extractions: Friday, May 27, 2005,Page 14 Advertising People in Taiwan seem to have a fascination with maps, which is odd considering that a vast majority of those published in Taiwan, be they tourist or transport maps, are incorrect and impossible to comprehend. The population might be cartographically challenged, but this doesn't stop books focusing on old maps of Taiwan from becoming bestsellers, copies of the Council for Cultural Affairs' (CCA, ) 2005 calendar featuring ancient maps of Taiwan from selling out in less than a day, and people from flocking to exhibitions in droves whenever maps are the order of the day.

Extractions: In 1895, military defeat forced China to cede Taiwan to Japan, however it reverted to Chinese control after World War II. Following the communist victory on the mainland in 1949, 2 million Nationalists fled to Taiwan and established a government using the 1947 constitution drawn up for all of China. Over the next five decades, the ruling authorities gradually democratized and incorporated the native population within its governing structure. Throughout this period, the island has prospered to become one of East Asia's economic "Tigers." The dominant political issue continues to be the relationship between Taiwan and China and the question of eventual reunification.
