But, Jay, really.

Taiwan attacking China is as realistic as the Duchy of Grand Fenwick attacking the USA.

An odd constitutional position, and certainly past its use-by date, though maybe understandable at the time. Taiwan China constitution implicit about invading China Mainland

I recommend forthwith holding a constitutional vote in Taiwan on whether to delete said absurd constitutional component. Change the constitution. Maybe while at it delete other muck lurking in the fine print of historical record.

There is far too much emphasis in making new laws instead of deleting tons of old laws. Donald Trump had it right = deleting lots of laws that were in his power to delete, though he really only deleted a tiny number. Draining the swamp was not done.

With a constitutional rule like that in the books, Taiwanese should not complain if China takes them at their word and invades Taiwan instead. But you did write "implicit" so maybe it's so far from explicit that it's not much more than "We shall act to ensure the defence of mainland China too" [Japan and USSR being a big problem in the early to mid 20th century when Taiwan became a retreat = Japan having been booted out after a long time of owning Taiwan].

I guess North and South Korea have similar constitutional laws in their books too.
