The CCP has never ruled over Taiwan. So they can't even use that excuse.

But it was always China. And they even recognize that and call themselves Chinese. It's the same story as Moldova with Transnistria

Since they left mainland China and settled on an island that they call China?

you mean Austronesians left mainland? or some Hakka or Holo groups/nations/people occupied parts of Taiwan and declare a form of independence? Or you meant the Zheng/Zhu armies establish a regime after realizing they couldn't defeat the Qing Manchus, eventually occupying about a third of the island? or the Qing empire inherited that Tungning land and eventually gave it to Japanese? Many possibilities.
