Definitions
name
A geographic region consisting of two provinces in East Asia both known as Fujian, one in China (PRC) and the other in Taiwan (ROC); formerly a single province.
The slogan was not entirely empty of positive reformist content, but Hunan was a part of China's battle belt — a line of provinces stretching from Fujian in the East through Jiangxi, Hunan, and into Sichuan. Reform here was a tenuous thing, dependent upon the ebb and flow of outsiders’ ambitions.
Koxinga’s forces hoped to launch an invasion to recapture the mainland from the Manchus, but instead the Manchu armies captured Taiwan in 1682. For the next 200 years there was substantial migration from the Fujian province across the Taiwan Straits. These immigrants brought with them their culture and language, which are still in evidence today. Taiwan remained a county of the Fujian province from 1684 until 1887, when with a population of more than 2½ million it became a province of China.
A province of the People's Republic of China (mainland China), located on the southeastern coast. Capital: Fuzhou.
Taiwan opened the links between its two small islands and China without talking to Beijing, which has grudgingly accepted the move but hasn't said how much it will cooperate. So everyone closely watched how the two ships were greeted in Fuzhou and Xiamen, the cities in the southeast Chinese province of Fujian.
While North Korea and the South continue to bicker - most recently over the sinking of a South Korean warship - China and Taiwan have been building closer business ties. One project full of symbolism for the two is an undersea cable project that will link the northern Taiwan town of Tamsui (also called Danshui) to China's Fujian Province.[…] The cable appears to be a replacement for a similar project announced last year to connect Xiamen, a city in China's Fujian Province, to Kinmen, a Taiwanese island within sight of China.
A nominal province of the Republic of China (Taiwan), consisting of Kinmen (Quemoy) and Lienchiang (Matsu) counties. Capital: Jincheng.
Taiwan is good for the marine sports development for its good natural environment. Therefore, it is important to conduct a survey searching for appropriate resources and developing proper strategies for introducing proper marine sports to Taiwanese. This study, supported by the Sports Affairs Council, Executive Yuan, Taiwan, was to develop marine sports strategies for Lien Chiang County, Fujian Province, ROC.
Martial law was lifted from most of the offshore islands in 1987; and then from both island groups of Kinmen (officially, Kinmen county of Fujian province, ROC) and Matsu (Lien-chiang county of Fujian province, ROC) in 1992.
