Sounds independent to me. Forget your pedantic nonsense.

As does Taiwan to me, and right back at you comrade.

So the “nation” that doesn’t even consider itself independent sounds independent to you?

And I’m the one being pedantic?

Sorry to say but independence isn’t a vibe.

It’s not a vibe based analysis.

They cannot claim themselves independent or else China would attack. Don't you think it's kind of ludicrous that a country can force another "region" to not be independent by threatening them?

What are your opinions on the civil war in the US?

Should the confederacy have been allowed to leave without threat of force?

I don't really care about the history of the US.
