Taiwan
North Korea

On April 13, 1919; the Republic of China recognized the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea. The Nationalist government of China participated in the Cairo Conference which resulted in the Cairo Declaration with the aim of freeing Korea and Taiwan from Japanese colonial rule.

After the communist takeover of China in 1949 and the establishment of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in 1948, formal relations between the two are non-existent, however, unofficial relations are significant. North Korea adheres to the one-China principle and considers Taiwan to be an inalienable part of the People's Republic of China.
