AP Human Geography
Unit 4 – Political Geography
Topic 4.9
How do Palestine's quest for statehood and Taiwan's struggle for international recognition reflect similar struggles?
Each represents an entity seeking recognition as a sovereign state amidst complex geopolitical circumstances.
Both represent cases where entities are universally recognized as independent nations but lack local control over their territories.
They both have gained full UN membership and widespread diplomatic recognition despite opposition.
Neither is seen as legitimate by neighboring states or international institutions due to lack of sovereignty claims.
