Taiwan is a self-ruling island of 24 million people that is officially known as the Republic of China.
About only a dozen countries recognize it as a nation because China claims it as one of its provinces.
Taiwan is called “Chinese Taipei” by international organizations and at the Olympic Games.
The ambiguity of Taiwan’s nationhood contrasts with a growing Taiwanese claim of identity.
For many people, it’s through food, one of the things the island is known for, aside from its semiconductor industry.
