Geography Taiwan (sometimes called "Formosa") in a large island located on Asia’s Pacific rim, between Japan and the Philippines. The Taiwan Strait, an expense of ocean about 165 kilometer (100) miles wide, separates the island from the southern Chinese coastal province of Fukien. Taiwan’s peculiar shape has often been compared to a sweet potato. the island as a total area of 36,000 square kilometers (13,900 square miles), roughly the size of the Netherlands or the U.S. state of West Virginia. Taiwan is 377 kilometers (226 miles) long and 142 kilometers (85 miles) wide at its widest point. Mountains dominate much of Taiwan with human settlements primarily along the western and southern coastal plains; only 25-30% of the land is suitable for agriculture. there are over 60 peaks with elevations of more than 10,000 feet, including Yu-Shan, which at 3950 meters (13,113 feet) is higher than Japan Mount Fuji. Volcanoes, all extinct or dormant, ring the island. Taiwan lies on a major earthquake fault, and tremors of varying magnitudes occur frequently. Forests cover 55% of the surface, but most are not suitable for commercial development. Acacia trees are found in the foothills, and bamboo flourishes all over the island. Numerous rivers traverse Taiwan, and the otherwise resource poor island has modest deposits of coal, petroleum, and natural gas.
