Formosa is what thePortuguese called Taiwan
when they came here in the
16th century and saw theisland's verdant beauty.
Located along the southeast
coast of the Asian Continent at
the western edge of the Pacific
Ocean, between Japan and
the Philippines and right in thecenter of the East-Asian islandarc, Taiwan forms a vital line ofcommunication in theAsia-Pacific region. It covers an
area of approximately 36,000
square kilometers (14,400square miles) and is longer
than it is wide. Two-thirds ofthe total area is covered byforested mountains and theremaining area consists of hilly
c o u n t r y, p l a t f o r m s a n dhighlands, coastal plains andbasins. The Central Mountain
Range stretches along theentire country from north tosouth, thus forming a naturalline of demarcation for rivers on
the eastern and western sidesof the island. On the west sidelies the Yu Mountain (Yushan)
Range with its main peakreaching 3,952 meters, thehighest mountain peak inNortheast Asia.
