Taiwan does appear... but with most of columns empty (whereas the currency TWD is properly listed in currency-codes). That's indeed an issue, it's a pretty large country :)

No, Taiwan actually is not part of China. Does China really govern Taiwan? Do Taiwan people pay any tax to China? Does Taiwan use the same constitution with China? Does Taiwan use the same currency-codes with China? All the answer is NO. China people always like to deceive themselves.

Obviously yes, it's not part of China. PRC does have enough power now to force through threats most countries to cut official ties with Taiwan, but that doesn't yet make their dreams come true :p Anyway, that's partly why having most of the Taiwan columns empty is a bit awkward :)
