Has The Republic of China [Taiwan] Bitten Off More Than It Can Chew?

Day 2,314, 12:45 Published in Japan Republic of China (Taiwan) by Natalia Poklonskaya

The Republic of China [Taiwan] Is a small island nation in the Pacific. Currently, however, it retains control over the southern Korean peninsula and Japan.

The editors have recently interviewed citizens of both areas; they have asked that we protect their identity.
The following is the transcript of both interviews:
編者(Editor): あなたが台湾占領についてどう思いますか?
How do you feel about the Taiwanese occupation.
山田花子(Hanako Yamada): それは抑圧的である。私はそれを好きではない。
It is oppressive. I do not like it.
編者(Editor):あなたが台湾占領についてどう思いますか?
How do you feel about the Taiwanese occupation.
홍길(Hong Gil):私は独立を願っています。
I wish for independence.

Many, too, wish for independence and distaste the current tenants of their land.

Why, then, have there been no successful revolutions?
