It has its own constitution, democratically-elected leaders, and 400,000 troops in its armed forces. Given the huge divide between these two positions, most other countries seem happy to accept the current ambiguity, whereby Taiwan has most of the characteristics of an independent state, even if its legal status remains unclear.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=unknown&rft.jtitle=BBC+News&rft.atitle=Taiwan+flashpoint&rft.date=2009&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fnews.bbc.co.uk%2F2%2Fshared%2Fspl%2Fhi%2Fasia_pac%2F04%2Ftaiwan_flashpoint%2Fhtml%2Fpresent_status.stm&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AWestern+Australian+Museum" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-38"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-38">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222" /><cite id="CITEREFRaphael2020" class="citation news cs1">Raphael, Angie (3 December 2020). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.theaustralian.com.au/breaking-news/new-wa-museum-removes-reference-to-china-from-its-covid19-exhibit-after-complaint/news-story/0e87185ea5567b1357b3ab3e6c315054">"New WA museum removes reference to COVID-19 'originating in China' after complaint"</a>. <i><a href="/wiki/The_Australian" title="The Australian">The Australian</a></i><span class="reference-accessdate">.
