History [MUST LINE UP WITH HISTORY IN "STATUS" SECTION, NOT SET IN STONE AND MUST BE APPROVED BY OPs, WRITE IT LIKE IT'S GOING IN THE "STATUS" SECTION - The presidential election was a rough and turbulent one. One side favoured independence from the PRC while the other wanted integration. It was a close election, but many have seen what the PRC did in Hong Kong and the citizens of Taiwan would not allow Mainland China into its lands. The overwhelming landslide victory to the Democratic Progressive Party was a big win for pro Independence and nationalist members of the country, but warning flags were raised as Cross straits relations immediately started to Cool.
There was also the issue of its sluggish economy. Years of PRC undercutting and interference have left the once-booming economy weak, its military outdated. The new president and her party members have much to do should the Chinese ever come, one way or another.
