Mainland Taipei

Guland, also known as Mainland Taipei is a geographical and historic region in East Asia, that used to be defined as the land between Orochi-proper and Arvidland. Today, Chugoku, Yangtze Leased Territory, the International Province of Formosa and the eastern parts of 7th Heaven are located in Mainland Taipei. The region is mainly inhabited by Gulandians, Formosans, Ninjagoans and a minority of Orochs. In 2020, Arvidlandian scholars coined the defining characteristics of Guland, and deemed it a geographical region due to the cultural similarities found between the various ethnic groups. Gnome Chomske remarked that "a Formosan living in Guland would certainly have more in common with their Gulandian neigbor than someone from Formosa. [..] The Garmadon dynasty ensured that."
== Etymology ==
Mainland Taipei as a term to describe the areas around the Yangtze and the Yellow rivers, mainly inhabited by Gulandians, was first used in ShitCraft IV. This was due to the Johanian Republic, which had claimed Guland's southern coast line, and later also the Yangtze River into Johanian Taipei, located close to the Johanian colony on Formosa, giving the Guland coastal areas the official name of "Mainland Taipei". The International Powers also started to use the term, and later more broadly to include the historic Gulandian area, especially by Arvidland's landlord Gnome_Lord. Ninjago, who refused to recognize Johanian claims in the East Guland Sea and not being too fond over Gulandians either, used terms such as Mainland Taihoku or Chugoku instead.
