Taiwan... I remember my History professor, told our class that Taiwan may cause problems for the world as soon as the Olympics ended...
not because they were gonna invade someone, but because they want China to get off their backs and are gonna start looking for allies to accomplish some goals, he said the US will have to make a choice because of some doctrines from back in the day where we promised help for Taiwan
