History
The Republic of China was created in 1949. In a bitter conflict, Mao Tse-Tung forced the Nationalist forces under General Chang Kai-Shek off the mainland. They set up their own country on the island of Taiwan (known in the west as Formosa). For the decades that followed it, there was a fragile peace between the two, that quickly became a stalemate.[1] On at least two occasions, the Nationalist government and population of Taiwan were successfully defended by the famous Blackhawk Squadron against aggression from Red China.[2][3]

In 2010, the League of Shadows planned to hit the peace summit between North and South Rhelasia. Red Arrow and Aqualad prevented it.[4] Later, Flash and Blue Devil fought off one of the Injustice League's plant creatures at a nuclear power plant. After it destroyed one of the chimneys, Captain Atom absorbed the nuclear spill.[5]
In 2016, a Magnetic Field Disruptor was activated in the League of Shadows' temple courtyard, causing lightning strikes all over the Taiwanese capital.[6]
In 2020, Doctor Fate, Zatanna and the Sentinels of Magic teleported in to find a pillar of fire had been conjured by Child, with a horde of demons crawling out of a crater at its base. Blue Devil and Etrigan were on site to handle the situation.[7]
