I would add that at one time most states recognized Taiwan, and around a score or two still do. Few or no states have ever recognized Chechnya. -- SJK |

Many of the states that don't recognize Taiwan (e.g. most Western countries) still maintain strong informal relations with the Taiwanese government. And Taiwan is represented in several international organizations, under names such as "Taiwan, Province of China" or "Chinese Taipei" or "Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan" -- SJK |
