The claimed official borders and divisions of the Taiwan Province of People's Republic of China mirror those of the ROC Taiwan Province before 1949. The PRC has not acknowledged any changes made post-1949 by the ROC. Thus, the elevation of Kaohsiung
, New Taipei, Taichung
, Tainan
and Taipei
to special municipalities has not been recognized by the PRC, and all five cities appear as part of Taiwan Province in publications issued by the PRC. Also, the PRC still regards Taipei as the capital city of Taiwan Province, instead of Zhongxing Village which is the capital of the ROC Taiwan Province. This is analogous to the previous practice of the ROC in producing maps depicting mainland
administrative boundaries the way they were in 1949.
Both the PRC and the ROC (Taiwan) claim the Diaoyutai (Senkaku) Islands
, administered by Japan, as a part of their own respective Taiwan Provinces.
Note 1: The Diaoyutai (Senkaku) Islands
, which are currently disputed between the People's Republic of China, the Republic of China and Japan
, are currently administered by Japan. Both the PRC and the ROC claim the islands as part of Toucheng Township of Yilan County
.
Note 2: The PRC most commonly uses the Pinyin romanization system, while the ROC used to use Wade–Giles, thus both governments write city names differently. For instance, the capital of Taiwan is written "Taibei" by China, but "Taipei" by Taiwan.
