The ROC was the legitimate government of China for a few decades there. They were so unpopular they lost a civil war with the communists despite initially outnumbering the communists.
I think it was over 2 million on the ROC side (+western support) and 1.2 million on the communist side.
They lost all territory that’s not the island of Taiwan, due to the CPC not having a proper navy. They still claim to be the legitimate government of mainland China, it’s not a breakaway state. They literally never surrendered.
Oh ROC is Taiwan, idk why it’s on the graph then.
