In John Oliver’s latest episode this past Sunday, John Oliver gives a good yet entertaining overview on Taiwan – from its history to its relationship with China and the rest of the world, including the United States. It’s an important topic given that Taiwan is a source of someĀ what is emerging as part of Asian American culture and the currently stressed global supply chain.
If you don’t know much about the political history of Taiwan, this is a good backgrounder. I was highly entertained that Oliver also mentioned how Taiwanese legislators periodically get into physical altercations with each other.
