    This is why Taiwan (ROC) is the true China who tried their best to preserve their own culture and country as much as they could, moving artifacts and such to the island (colloquially mainlanders even call Taiwan "treasure island). The CCP were demolishing temples and artifacts as well as killing millions and people and destroying their country.

      I just want to add some additional context: Taiwan existed as a nation long before the RoC fled to the island and massacred the population (look up the White Terror). There continues to be quite a bit of tension between the original population and the RoC about the national identity. I wouldn’t really call Taiwan the true China. My family is native Taiwanese and I know there is a lot of anger at how their government was taken over.
