 About ""Two Chinas"" 

I re-wrote and expanded the ""History"" section for several reasons.
 One, I think ""Background"" is more appropriate since the article is about the term ""Two Chinas"". There is no actual thing as ""Two Chinas"". So a section that deals with the background of the situation described by the term is better called ""Background"" and not ""History"" - ""History"" should be used for a section on the history of the term.
 Two, there was a lot of misleading content in the article, such as the stuff about the Ruijin Soviet: I've seen that claim (that the Ruijin Soviet was the first time there were ""two Chinas"") bandied about in online forums and anti-Communist China magazines from time to time, but it is factually untrue, since China was split between many autonomous entities throughout the Republican period, and the Ruijin Soviet was no different from any of them.
 In re-writing the Background section I was hoping to illustrate that history of division and separation in order to place the final division that led eventually to the current situation in a historical context.

I don't want to get back into the debate. My latest run-in with the Indian flag-wavers (thanks for noticing, btw) has made me very disillusioned, and I will trust your good judgment to trim, edit, or restore whatever parts of the text as you see fit. Cheers,  (Talk) "
