Abstract or Introduction
What leads to the establishment of diplomatic relations between an emergent nation like Taiwan and a devoloping country like Paraguay? One is part of the American continent, the other one part of Asia;a quiete far distance between them. What kind of relations unite them? And what gains each one of them by those relations? Almost nobody in the Western hemisphere would consider the possiblility of relations between Taiwan and Paraguay. Taiwan mostly is regarded as a part of the People’s Republic of China. And Paraguay is not really known at all, in contrast to its great neighbours Brasil and Argentina.
The Latinamerican region became the place where Taiwan fought for its international acceptance. The Republic of China wishes to become an independent democractic state, fully accepted internationally. That’s why Taiwan is building up relations to other countries. At this point of time 27 countries accept it as an independent state.
