The Kuomintang (KMT), also known as the Chinese Nationalist Party, is a political party in the Republic of China, initially on the Chinese mainland and in Taiwan after 1949. Originally the sole ruling party in the Dang Guo system, the Kuomintang is currently the largest opposition party in the Legislative Yuan. In Taiwanese politics, the KMT primarily competes with the rival Democratic Progressive Party (DPP). The KMT opposes de jure Taiwan independence and Chinese unification under "One Country, Two Systems", instead favoring cross-strait relations with the People's Republic of China (PRC) and maintaining Taiwan's status quo under the Constitution of the Republic of China. The current chairman is Eric Chu. The Kuomintang is one of two major historical contemporary parties in China, the other being the Chinese Communist Party.

Taiwanese indigenous peoples, Formosan people, Austronesian Taiwanese, Yuanzhumin or Gāoshān people, are the indigenous peoples of Taiwan, who number about 569,000 or 2.38% of the island's population. This total is increased to more than 800,000 people if the indigenous peoples of the plains in Taiwan are included, pending future official recognition. Recent research suggests their ancestors may have been living on Taiwan for approximately 6,500 years. A wide body of evidence suggests Taiwan's indigenous people maintained regular trade networks with regional cultures before major Han (Chinese) immigration from continental Asia began in the 17th century.
