You've got it backwards - Taiwan (the Republic of China) actually used to control the mainland before the Chinese civil war that resulted in the modern-day government (the People's Republic of China) taking control. Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Civil_War

"Taiwan" was never the administrative centre of China, come on. Some of the Chinese ruling classes fled there after the revolution. It's like saying the capital of Germany was always Bonn.

Sorry, bad phrasing. I intended to say "The current government of Taiwan"
