China isn't in light green for Taiwan. Is that situation different in some way?

But Taiwan is in light green for China...
Does Taiwan claim sovereignty over mainland China?
Technically speaking yes. It's complicated.
It did historically, and has not formally renounced its claim (which included Mongolia).
yeah, very different power imbalance and influence :)
How so? Where's North Korea's influence? If anything, Taiwan has more ability to enforce its territorial claims.
North Korea appears as a territory of South Korea, not the opposite
