I’m more keeping it as a US territory like PR. But we have to pick between Taiwan and HK. Our military has at least a thousand war strategies in defending Taiwan.
We should assert that we have a prior claim to Taiwan as a territory by right of conquest. Hell, a Chinese Emperor renounced any right to Formosa in the 1800s! We held it for a brief period and have more right to it than the running dog CCP imperialists!

Taiwan became a dependency of Japan in 1895 when the Qing dynasty of China ceded Taiwan Province in the Treaty of Shimonoseki after Japanese victory in the First Sino-Japanese War. The short-lived Republic of Formosa resistance movement was suppressed by Japanese troops and quickly defeated in the Capitulation of Tainan, ending organized resistance to Japanese occupation and inaugurated five decades of Japanese rule. Taiwan was Japan’s first overseas colony and can be viewed as the first steps in implementing their “Southern Expansion Doctrine” of the late 19th century. Japanese intentions were to turn Taiwan into a showpiece “model colony” with much effort made to improve the island’s economy, public works, industry, cultural Japanization, and to support the necessities of Japanese military aggression in the Asia-Pacific.[1]
Japanese rule of Taiwan ended after the surrender of Japan concluded World War II in August 1945, and the territory was placed under the control of the Republic of China (ROC) with the issuing of General Order No. 1.[2] Japan formally renounced rights to Taiwan in the Treaty of San Francisco in April 1952. The experience of Japanese rule, ROC rule and the February 28 massacre of 1947 continues to affect issues such as Taiwan Retrocession Day, national identity, ethnic identity, and the formal Taiwan independence movement.
