Taiwan, a nation and country, is antagonized by China regularly.

If Taiwan is its own nation, they should really specify that in their constitution instead of claiming to be the rightful government of all of China and Mongolia.

That still makes it a nation... That claims to be the rightful government. These are not mutually exclusive haha
