the cultural genocide of the indigenous peoples didn't end during the guomindang era but it was probably a lot worse during the late qing era and definitely worse under the japanese colonial era.
most indigenous speak mandarin btw and (especially in the east) also still speak their native languages. never met an indigenous person that could speak cantonese but some of them can speak taiwanese
What language? Hakka? Hokkien? Assuming we're not talking about Austronesian languages but Sinitic ones.
"Taiwanese" would be Taiwanese Hokkien, however the lingua franca is Mandarin. There's also a large Hakka minority.
The blue (mandarin) areas on the east coast are the areas with the highest percentage of indigenous.
I guess the sudden dark blue in the the northwest is some part of Taoyuan where a lot of waishengren (mainlanders arriving during the civil war, mostly former military families) live
taiwaanese as in 台语 aka 闽南话. hakka is its own thing and i'm sure there's some indigenous person somewhere tht speaks tht too
