@nikubeeemu@tymaymaychan It's also easy to explain. After 1972 when the 日中共同声明 has signed, Mao gave up Japanese repatriation and Japanese government offered ODA to PRC, they have recognize them being the government of China, the continuation of WWII ROC.
@nikubeeemu@tymaymaychan Here comes the issue - you think that the war was fought between governments. But you choose to ignore the actual victims which are the people in the country. In short - whoever can represent the Chinese population now have the right. Japanese bomb landed in Nanjing not Taipei.
@nikubeeemu@tymaymaychan Meanwhile there were a lot of Taiwanese fighting for Japan during the war. How come the current ROC government who doesn't control Mainland China have the claim to be the continuation of the force that fought Japanese during WWII?
@nikubeeemu@tymaymaychan There's nothing difficult. The battle fought between Chinese and Japanese happend on Chinese soil, in nowadays PRC. Most people who are involved in the war are in PRC.
you know, “Cho Chang” etc gets a lot easier to understand when you remember Rowling was writing in the NINETIES in SCOTLAND. There was no internet to look this kind of thing up and no Koreans or Chinese to personally ask. People really do not remember pre-internet life
