taiwan is a key flashpoint in the tussle between china and the us for supremacy in asia. but what is the historical background to their current, complex relationship? our reporter tom brada has more. the elections in taiwan are being closely watched around the world. that is because taiwan finds itself at the centre of a geopolitical flashpoint between the us and china. for all practical purposes, the island has been independent since 1949. but china sees it as part of its own territory which will one day unite with the mainland — if necessary, by force. on that, here's the chinese president speaking in 2022. translation: we will never promise to renounce the use| of force as an option. to understand why the issue of taiwan is so contentious, it is important to understand some of the island's history. in the first half of the 20th century, there was a civil war on mainland china which pitted the chinese national party
