Inside a private star room, Taiwan diffidently enters.
Author: Taiwan, glad you're here, take a seat.
Taiwan: Oh, I'm so relieved I found the right room, I was getting lost in here!
Author: Shall we start our session?
Taiwan: Yeah, let's.
Author: In EA Adventures, you sure seem to be the country who is getting the least screen time. How does that make you feel?
Taiwan: I'm quite fine with it; it's what I expected anyway, I prefer to keep things as calm as possible. Besides... I'm not good at performing when I'm being watched.
Author: At the beginning of the Adventure, why did you go back in time?
Taiwan: It wasn't my idea! My insane brother of mine tried to change history, at first I thought it was a quick visit, if I had known his real intention sooner I would've done something to stop him myself.
Author: What's it like to be living in your brother's shadow?
Taiwan: Awful, nobody in the world seems to recognize, or trade with me. My brother's wealth overshines mine, even when I'm the most cultured here, he doesn't even use traditional Chinese! Clearly, I should've been the biggest one! NOT HIM!
Author: Uh-huh... About Mongolia. It took you decades to realize his independence, all those times when you still addressed him as Outer Mongolia on your map. Why is that?
Taiwan: It's only fair to claim countries who once belonged to you. All I'm saying is, Mongolia used to be one of us.
Author: Boy... you and China sure seem to have a knack for claiming stuff that isn't yours... Next question. Is it true Imperial Japan raped you?
Taiwan: YES! I still get night terrors because of that bastard! I'm happy America obliterated his pitiful existence! Ugh, all those torturing moments, he tormented me to a breaking point. I don't even want to think about it!
Author: Okay then, even though you hate Imperial Japan, you have somewhat of a good relationship with Japan. What's your opinion of her?
Taiwan: Sure, Japan's father is a scoundrel, but she has been helping me after the war. She's trying to redeem and correct what her father has done wrong. I do feel bad calling her names the first time I met her, but we're cool now! Plus, China doesn't like her so much, anything China doesn't like, I like~
Author: Alright, I heard you keep close contact with the Korean brothers. Do you?
Taiwan: With South Korea, I do, with North, he can get lost. North is basically my brother's puppet, I guess two past communists stick together.
Author: Then again... You're working with USA.
Taiwan: He's the only one supporting my existence! He's also the barrier keeping my brother away from me. Since South Korea and Japan are allied with America, I make sure to maintain professional behavior.
Author: Your detest for North Korea and China seems... irrational.
Taiwan: My brother chased me to another island! North threatened to nuke me, I think my hatred is perfectly reasonable.
Author: What are your plans for the future?
Taiwan: Not sure... I'm waiting for China to just try and invade me, America would probably intervene and a war might start. The worst possible outcome, I could die, the best probable result, he could die!
Author: That's... pretty morbid. It says in your diary that you believe China will break someday. Why do you think so?
Taiwan: I don't know how you got it, but that's personal property! [Snatches the diary from Author's hand] But to answer your question, it could happen, I'm not saying it 100% will; unless Tibet, Xinjiang, and Inner Mongolia fight for their independence, it will severely weaken China giving me a perfect chance to strike!
Author: United Nations kicked you out of the organization, didn't he?
Taiwan: I got kicked out of it because not enough countries knew I existed! I tried to regain position several times, but he always turned me down... And it's all because of that stupid China's FAULT!
Author: Okay, that's all for now, thanks for answering all my questions, good day!
