[edit] List of Chinese Governors-General of Taiwan

There is only one Chinese Governor-General in Taiwan history. The ROC government in Nanking abolished the governor-generalship in 1947 and established a Taiwan Province to appease the insurgence in the 228 incident and to assure Taiwanese that they would be treated equally as the Chinese people.
