Summary

"Taiwan is a place filled with beautiful landscapes, unique architecture, rugged mountains, and modern cities. While it officially became Taiwan in 1949, the island has existed for thousands of years. From its days as a Portuguese colony to its historic conflicts and more recent struggles with China, many dramatic events have shaped Taiwan into what it is today. Through the use of detailed photographs, fact boxes, and sidebars, readers meet the people of Taiwan. They dive into their lifestyle, culture, favorite foods, holiday traditions, and more, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the country, its values, and its people"--, Provided by publisher
