FAS Military Analysis DOD 101 US Ops ... Join FAS Taiwan Geography Shaped roughly like a tobacco leaf, Taiwan is 394 kilometers (245 miles) long and 144 kilometers (89.5 miles) wide at its broadest point. The Central Mountain Range bisects Taiwan from north to south and about two-thirds of the island is covered with forested peaks. The rest of the island is made up of foothills, terraced flatlands, and coastal plains and basins. The surface structure of the island is formed by a tilted fault block running roughly northeast to southwest along the entire length. The steep slope of this tilted block faces east and the rock mass slopes more gently to the west. Because of the terrain, scarcely more than one-third of the land area is arable. The mountains are mostly forested, with some minerals - chiefly coal - at the northern end. On the east coast, the mountains fall away steeply to the Pacific. To the west, the level sediments lie just below the surface of the sea. As a result, river deposits have filled the shallow waters and extended the land 15 to 30 km westward from the foothills. The shoreline of Taiwan is simple and fairly straight. The total length is 1,566 km (including the Pescadore Islands). Off the southern end of the island lie a number of coral reefs built up along the island's shores during the Pleistocene Period. However, the area covered by these reefs is small.

Click here for details! var site="sm2dreamthedream" zhenghe @one-planet.org INTRODUCTION Background: In 1895, military defeat forced China to cede Taiwan to Japan, however it reverted to Chinese control after World War II. Following the communist victory on the mainland in 1949, 2 million Nationalists fled to Taiwan and established a government using the 1947 constitution drawn up for all of China. Over the next five decades, the ruling authorities gradually democratized and incorporated the native population within its governing structure. Throughout this period, the island has prospered to become one of East Asia's economic "Tigers." The dominant political issue continues to be the relationship between Taiwan and China and the question of eventual reunification.

TAIWAN GEOGRAPHY Taiwan is an island in East Asia and is bordered by the Philippine Sea, South China Sea, East China Sea, and the Taiwan Strait and is positioned in the Pacific Ocean. The other major cities of the island are Chilung. Tainan, Kaohsiung, and Taichung. Taiwan takes up 98 percent of the area of the islands managed by the Republican government. The majority of the island is covered with mountainous peaks. A distinguished piece of land is the Chungyang Range mountains, which stretch over the north-south part of the island. Most of Taiwans rivers emanate from the mountains. The longest river on the island is the Choshul river and the other rivers are the Tachia, Taan, Tatu, Kaoping and Tsengwen. The construction industry also receives resources such as gravel, sand and rock from the rivers in Taiwan. The climate is characterized as tropical and subtropical. It rains quite often and typhoons occur in the months of June and October. From December to February, winter occurs and the average winter temperature is 64 degrees Fahrenheit. Snow is only found on the top of the highest point in the Chungyang Range. Summers are extremely hot with an average temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit. Gold and copper are also deposited from the Chungyang Range and the eastern coastal range.
