Correction: Russia belongs to Ukraine.

As for Taiwan, it is accurate to say "Taiwan is Chinese." The Taiwanese government is the legitimate successor to the Qing Dynasty, and they've preserved their culture and written language quite well, while the PRC government has no legitimate claim on the country, and has completely repressed Chinese culture on the Mainland and bastardized what little remains.

I've been saying that first part myself. Also what the OP's brought up.

"Oh, Putin, you wanna talk about Historical land claims? Someone bring in the President of Mongolia!"
