I would like to point out that most people consider taiwan to be part of China, and not a nation of it's own. AND there are no legal documentations whatsoever that declares Taiwan an independent nation. Therefore it is rude to call taiwan the "Republic Of China". --Primexx 03:28, Sep 16, 2004 (UTC)
- quite the opposite. That's we call it the "Republic of China" instead of "Taiwan": "The Republic of China (ROC) maintains a large military establishment..." instead of "Taiwan maintains a large military establishment..." This is an issue for wikipedia:naming conventions (Chinese). --Jiang 03:45, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)
The so called "republic of china" does not exist, because it is part of The People's Republic Of China. --Primexx 23:10, Sep 17, 2004 (UTC)
- there's a government in Taipei claiming to be the Republic of China. Therefore it exists whether in de facto or de jure form. Please see our NPOV policy. --Jiang 02:39, 18 Sep 2004 (UTC)
if you are not biased, then you wouldent say that it is a nation.
- i didnt call it a nation. it is a de facto sovereign state. the debate is over whether it is de jure, not whether it exists at all. --Jiang 05:50, 18 Sep 2004 (UTC)

- One of the ironies here is that Beijing would much rather deal with a group of people calling themselves the Republic of China than a group of people calling themselves Taiwan. There have been quite a number of recent articles in the People's Daily complaining that Chen Shuibian wants to use the name Taiwan instead of the Republic of China. Also its pretty clear that if the government in Taipei formally changes it name to Taiwan and formally abolishes the ROC, then the PRC will take military action.

[edit] Category structure
I've removed some recently added categories which are redundant or do not apply:
- Category:Military of the Republic of China is already filed under Category:Republic of China, which itself is filed under Category:China, making the latter two circular and redundant.
- The military is an institution of the state (the ROC), so Category:Taiwan does not apply here.
- Category:History of the Republic of China should be placed on an ROC military history article. This article provides a general overview not limited to history.
- Category:Armies does not apply here as this deals with all branches. Unlike the PLA, the ROC Military as a whole is not referred to as an army. That distinction is left to the ROC Army which is already categorized there.
- Category:Military deals with general military topics, not individual militaries which are listed under Category:Military by country. Category:Military of the Republic of China is already listed there.
When adding categories please take care to add only nonredundant and categorizations under the correct context. Thanks. -Loren 16:13, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
