Which of the following is not a reason for taiwan to consider itself independent and sovereign? a. taiwan has declared its independence from china. b. china has recognized taiwan’s independence. c. the us and other countries have recognized taiwan's independence. d. taiwan was founded as a separate state after wwii.

The correct answer is B, as China hasn't recognized Taiwan's independence.

Explanation:

In 1949, when the Chinese Civil War turned decisively in favor of the Chinese Communist Party, the Republic of China led by the Kuomintang withdrew to Taiwan and placed the provisional capital there in Taipei, while the People's Republic of China proclaimed another republic in China with Beijing capital.

Since then, relations between the two governments of Beijing and Taipei have been characterized by limited contacts, tensions and instability, due to the fact that the Civil War stopped only formally with the signing of the peace treaty but the two countries are still technically in a state of war. In the early years the military conflicts continued, while the respective governments competed to consider themselves each the "legitimate government of China". More recently, the question has arisen over the political and legal status of Taiwan which has focused on the ownership of the Taiwan Strait waters and thus ultimately the unification of the two countries or the recognition of Taiwan's full independence. The People's Republic of China remains hostile to any form of declaration of independence and maintains its own claims on Taiwan.
