Chinese Taipei is Taiwan, an independent nation. As much as China would like to claim otherwise, Taiwan is not China.

They claim to be China though. The ROC see themselves as the legitimate government in exile. Both the PRC and the ROC believe in "One China", they just disagree as to who is the "real" China.

That is true, so then if Taiwan sees itself as the official government in exile, then wouldn't that mean China proper is an extension of Taiwan, and not the other way around? :)
