China. The country has no land boarders and is surrounded by the East China Sea, the Philippine Sea, the South China Sea, and the Taiwan Strait, totalling 1,566.3 kilometres
of coastline (CIA, 2003). The area includes not only the main island, but also the Pescadores, Quemoy, and Matsu has a total area of 35,980 square miles (CIA, 2003).
In terms of comparison this areas is slightly smaller than the combined area of Delaware and Maryland (CIA, 2003). The climate is tropical but cloudy with a rainy season between
June and August (CIA, 2003). The eastern parts of the regions are most mountains, taking up 66% of the region, the west is flatter with plans (CIA, 2003). The highest
point can be found at Yu Shan which is 3,997 meters above sea level, the lowest point is the South China sea, which is sea level (CIA, 2003). There
are few natural recourses, with some coal deposits as well as limestone, marble and asbestos, there are also some natural gas deposits (CIA, 2003). The main land use is
arable with 24% of the land used in this way, only 1% of the land is used for permanent crops (CIA, 2003). The natural hazards in the area are
typhoons and earthquakes (CIA, 2003). The history of Taiwan as it is known today starts in 1895 when the area fell from Chinese control to the Japanese (CIA, 2003). The
are stayed in Japanese control until immediately after the Second World war when It went back to the Chinese (CIA, 2003). This was a dramatic time in Chinese history, and
with the communist party gaining power in 1949 in china Taiwan was the target of the 2 million nationalists that sought to escape the new Chinese government (CIA, 2003).
