Where is Taiwan (aka The Republic of China) in all of this – a country which has its own constitution, monetary system, has a democratically elected president and yet, because China holds the world in a death grip by the throat, cannot be declared legally as a sovereign nation? At best, it is called “Chinese Taipei” in international venues such as The Goodwill Games, at worst, it is blatantly ignored by international agencies like the UN because everyone’s afraid of upsetting the PRC and having them retaliate for acknowledging Taiwan. I thought that would have been number 2, right after Tibet, another victim of China’s greed for control, for sure.

Correction #9:

"Cabinda is a region located in west central Africa between Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Cabinda’s claims to independence from Angola trace back to its days as a Portuguese protectorate. When Angola achieved independence in the 1970s (1975), the exiled Cabinda government declared independence as well, though it went unrecognized. Its government is currently based in Paris."

ok?

@#35. James
‘This is the cultural genocide. What difference would it make it Tibet gains it’s independence in 20 years if the majority of the population then is Chinese and simply votes to rejoin China?’

Check out my post previous, it explains the Tibetan stance. No one is advocating a break away nation. It amazes me that people know the Dalai Lama won the Nobel, but they don’t know one of the main reasons he won it was based on creating a plan for the Tibetans and Chinese to co-exist peacefully together- not kick the Chinese out or anything like that- that’s just Communist party progaganda (the same people calling the Dalai Lama a violent terrorist… sigh). It isn’t a fight for ‘independance’ but a struggle for freedom and autonomy. To achieve the protection and rights of freedom within Tibet of their culture and society. I hope that can kinda place it in a more understandable light.

given some recent comments -
keep in mind if you want to post personal info in comments you do have other options. i would strongly recommend getting a free throwaway email addy to then exchange information offsite. or use our forums Private Messaging system. also..forums is a much better place to chat than via comments on mainsite. and i think the IRC channel is still active also.

never share personal information online you would not want the whole world knowing

and if you are going to go to the bother of doing so..then take a few extra minutes and safeguard yourself w/ the previous suggestions.

and remember..Listverse is about lists and comments w/ an additional offsite forum that is better suited to more personal interactions. (see the navbar for the link)

unless ya’ll want to start funding the changes needed to make this a real social networking site

lol…
