Is there any reason to believe reunification is likely to happen soon?
As the US's importance in global trade declines, Taiwan's trade will slant more and more toward China, and the 2 regions will become more and more interconnected until they are de-facto unified.
That is the endgame. It's also why China has quite generous policies toward Taiwan residents, such as easy-to-get Mainland Travel Permits for Taiwan Residents. It's all to promote trade interconnection.
Taiwan isn't a country, it's a US-occupied region of China
Shite, woops on the language. My bad. The western brainrot has penetrated my subconscious.
and the 2 countries

2049 is only 25 years away...
Reunification is a process, it doesn't happen in a day. China approach is to economically couple Taiwan (it already is the main trading partner, still there is ton of room for growth), steady growing their trade until the % is large enough that even the taiwan compradores can't refuse the economic benefits of reunification.
It depends on how you define it, China has a long-term strategy, reunification could still take decades, even more so since Taiwan is an important US base
Good. I'd say maybe the US shouldn't have invested all it's eggs in the imperialist basket, but then, it's very existence is imperialism.
They may as well cry about how the (partial) abolishment of slavery and decolonization movements "devastate" the west next- well, they already do, and this counts as the latter.
"No imperialism is when no iphone vuvuzela 100 gorbillion dead" or some shite.
