Taiwan

Taiwan, officially Republic Of China was a island country located southeast of the Chinese mainland, south of Japan, and north of the Philippines. It's capital was Taipei. 
==History==
At the end of the Chinese Civil War, the Chinese Nationalists of Kuomintang lost, and escaped to the island of Taiwan, where they set up Taipei as the temporary capital of Republic of China, while Mao Zedong's communists set up their empire in the mainland. The country was not recognized by every other state, and in 1971 Taiwan was even expelled from the United Nations and replaced by the People's Republic of China.
However, for Taiwan, everything ended well, as after the Third World War, both Chinese states united, with the help of NATO, and at last, Kuomintang was victorious. There was much rejoicing in Taipei that day, with many Taiwanese men rushing home to their families, newspaper in hand, screaming "It's over!" or "We've won!". Thus, Taiwan as a country ceased to exist, as now the Republic Of China encompassed both the mainland, and the former controversial island.
==Trivia==
*Originally, Reds Over World was to feature a mission in which China bombs Taiwan using a nuke; the player would witness the nuclear explosion first-hand, and would have to duck into the city's sewers, and fight the Chinese inside the sewer system.
