The history of large-scale exchanges between mainland China and Taiwan Province Province.

China has a written history of more than 4,000 years, and the literature about Taiwan Province Island can be traced back to 1700 years ago, which is a record of the southeast coastal customs in the Coastal Water History written by Shen, a native of the State of Wu in the Three Kingdoms period. In the 7th century, the Sui government sent more than 10,000 people across the sea to Taiwan Province Province, and quite a few people stayed on the island, becoming another group of residents from the mainland to Taiwan Province Province. Although more than 800 years ago, some people from the white tribes along the coast of China landed on the island, they were mixed with Polynesians there and became the indigenous people of Taiwan Province Province.

12 and 13 centuries, China's Song Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty had set up administrative institutions in Penghu Island in the island chain of Taiwan Province Province, and brought Taiwan Province Island into administrative jurisdiction and territory. 14 and 15 centuries, organized pirates confronted the government off the coast of China. The Zheng family once occupied the island of Taiwan Province and became the main force of pirate groups. Later, they were recruited by the government as coastal trade officials in Ming Dynasty, and played an intermediary role in China's trade with the outside world.

/kloc-At the beginning of the 7th century, Dutch pirates landed in Taiwan Province Province by deception and built military castles in Tainan Port. Later, the Dutch and Spanish established farm settlements in the south and north of Taiwan Province province in China by missionary way, and colonized and expanded. 1662, Zheng Chenggong led the Ming navy to expel the Dutch colonists, set up Chengtianfu, and comprehensively managed Taiwan Province Island. After the Qing Dynasty unified China, this governance became a part of Fujian Province. 17 14, the Qing government sent people to Taiwan Province province for surveying and mapping. Since then, Taiwan Province Island has been regarded as the "gateway to seven southeast coastal provinces".

/kloc-After the 9th century, the powers threatened East Asian countries by force, and the seaports of China and Japan were successively invaded by British and American fleets and landing troops. Later, in order to protect themselves, China and Japan adopted "Westernization Movement" and "Meiji Restoration" to develop their military strength and learn from western science and technology. 187 1 year, after the reform, Japan sent armed men disguised as fishermen to the eastern part of Taiwan Province Island, which was resisted by indigenous people. The Japanese took the opportunity to intimidate the Qing government into giving up the right to protect the Iwo Jima regime, and made a territorial claim to Taiwan Province Province, which was rejected by the Qing government. Since then, in order to consolidate the defense of Taiwan Province Island, the Qing government has intensified its immigration to Taiwan Province Island, and formally established Taiwan Province Province in 1885, sending Liu Mingchuan to control Taiwan Province Province. Liu Ren laid the first railway, the first submarine cable and the first transmission line in China, and established the first power plant and the first telegraph office. Taiwan Province province developed industry and commerce and modern education, which became the "Westernization Movement" of the Qing government at that time.

1894, Japan launched the Sino-Japanese War of 1894. The following year, the Qing government was defeated and forced to sign the treaty of shimonoseki and cede the island of Taiwan Province Province. At that time, the reporter reported that the whole province "shouted loudly" for a strike, and the Qing government officials also stuck to their original posts, fighting desperately against the Japanese occupation with the local garrison and the people. People along the southeast coast of the mainland also donated money to participate in the anti-Japanese struggle. Even after the 1920s, in order to resist Japanese colonial rule, the forces represented by Lin fought for their rights as China people through parliamentary protests, while Jiang Weishui and other intellectuals and teachers also wrote and stated the history of China in Chinese in newspapers and books, and publicized the consciousness of China people to Taiwan Province compatriots.

The purpose of Japanese colonial rulers' efforts to build Taiwan Province Province is to make this rich island a springboard for their expansion to Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific. During Japanese rule, Taiwan Province Province was plundered of a large number of resources and labor. The wages of workers in Taiwan Province Province are only one-seventh that of Japanese workers, and a large amount of timber, coal, minerals, steel, sugar and rice are shipped to Japan. The Japanese even regarded the aborigines in Taiwan Province Province as wild animals, surrounded their settlements with barbed wire, and committed genocide against them with mortars and gas bombs. The purpose of Japanese education in Taiwan Province Province is to make them tame slaves. The Japanese never allowed people from Taiwan Province Province to attend political and legal courses in universities, but only studied engineering and medicine, which became Japanese tools. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, Japan exercised high-handed rule over Taiwan Province Province, and carried out a "imperialization movement" similar to Hitler's Nazi culture, forcing compatriots in Taiwan Province Province to change the name of China, give up their language and be loyal to the Japanese emperor and militarism. The Lee Teng-hui family and Ku Kuomintang family are the best followers and successors of Japanese policy. Japan also recruited a large number of young people from Taiwan Province Province to join the Japanese army invading the mainland and Southeast Asia, and even participated in the attack on Pearl Harbor in the United States.

1In August, 945, the world anti-fascist war won, and China and War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression won. According to the Cairo Declaration signed by China, the United States and Britain and the Potsdam Proclamation signed by China, the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union, Taiwan Province Province and the Penghu Islands were returned to China. 10 10 On October 25th, the surrender ceremony of Taiwan Province Province in China War Zone was held in Taipei. The China government announced to the world that Taiwan Province Province and Penghu were under the sovereignty of China. At that time, western journalists in Taiwan Province Province reported that firecrackers were ringing, people were laughing and decorating everywhere, and people were jubilant and celebrated that they had become China people again. They shed tears of joy, paid homage to their ancestors and celebrated the return of Taiwan Province Province to the embrace of the motherland.

Since modern times, our compatriots in Taiwan Province and Chinese mainland have experienced the same history and suffered colonial aggression from foreign powers. At the same time, Taiwan Province compatriots fought hard with Chinese mainland for the rejuvenation and development of the Chinese nation. Compatriots on both sides of the strait experienced wars and realized that the history of Chinese mainland's separation from Taiwan Province was entirely the result of imperialist powers' invasion and colonization and China's long-term weakness and civil strife. China's reunification is not only a symbol of national rejuvenation, but also an objective fact that China people on both sides of the strait must face when they move towards comprehensive modernization.
