A best-selling Taiwanese classic for ten years, the best graphic book to understand Taiwan over the past century, with newly added graphic content on cross-Strait relations entering the "deep water zone"——
Through a century of ups and downs, we can read all the ups and downs, joys and sorrows that Taiwan has experienced over the years.
From the beginning of Japan's colonization of Taiwan to Ma Ying-jeou's re-election, Taiwan entered a more complex stage of development, and cross-strait relations entered the "deep water zone." This book uses a chronological style to record the land, people, and years of the treasure island for more than 100 years since 1900, including politics, economy, society, education, culture, etc., Such as the Wushe Anti-Japanese Incident led by Seediq Mona Ludo, the recovery of Taiwan, the February 28th Incident, the Chronicle of the Burning Island, the Kuomintang's relocation to Taiwan, the Kinmen Artillery Battle, Lei Zhen and " "Free China", the Formosa Incident, the baseball whirlwind, Teresa Teng, Luo Dayou, Wang Ku talks, the establishment of the Democratic Progressive Party, opening up mainland China to visit relatives, the "Diaoyu Islands" crisis, the showdown between Ma Ying-jeou and Chen Shui-bian, the "921" earthquake, the "services trade" turmoil... I hope that its sorrow is also the sorrow of the Chinese people, and its hope is also inspiring to all Chinese people. I believe that such efforts will shorten the psychological distance between the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and help people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait work together to create a prosperous and democratic future for the Chinese nation.
