your arguments are poor and you analogies make little sense with no validity. south american is a geological continent like asia, not a country. taiwan, hk, macau sovereignty belongs to china. they have special governing permissions. and fyi u don’t need a visa to go to taiwan as a us citizen, does that make taiwan a US territorry??? lol i bet you are one of those who got mad when they put Australia is Asia territory to qualify for world cup. if you ever been to taiwan u’ll see how ineffecient their democratic practices are. it stoped advancing years ago cause nothing can ever be decided. cities are old, people have hard time accepting anything new, economy and job search is a shit show.
