I have no idea what type of history and political science you have available in China but it is not as simple as you have it said here.



Basically mainland China at the end of the 2nd WW had a civil war between the Communist Party led by Mao and the Nationalist Party (for democracy) led by General Chiang Kai-shek.

Mao won and China became a Communist led totalitarian government supported by Russia.



The Nationalist were allowed to retreat to Taiwan where they established the free Nationalist Party supported by many FREE nations incl USA, England, etc.



How much money then and now is not important as it has been in the billions over the years but the P R of China remains a Communist nation which is slowly changing (maybe quickly?) to a Capitalistic Communist country which usually leads to a country becoming a FREE Democratic nation just as Russia has done.



It also isn't important if they do or do not right now as they are allowing many foreign nations to conduct free enterprise business in China, it may or may not continue in the long run only time will tell.



Note that as of now China has the MOST amount of new Millionaires and Billionaires in the world. Yetb you also have one of the Poorest lower class of people in the world.



This is just a short and general overview, there is a lot more.



If you are able? Google/BING or whatever for in depth history and political and economical info on - in the past, present and possible future of the P R of China.

Excuses are cheap and easy to make. Many people say what you think and write here, the problem with all these people you refer to is they all belong to the CCP. What you so easily forget is the Japanese controlled China and there was nothing the Chinese people could do about this. Then these people you like to give no thanks to came to Asia and destroyed the Japanese Empire with no help from you. The Allies paid the cost in money, and manpower to free China from Japan. In doing this the Allies gave the Chinese people something the people could not do for themselves, a country run by Chinese people not Japanese. If you think the Allies made money by coming to Asia and fighting the battle for the Chinese people against the Japanese you are really a DA. What is the pitiful part is you do not even know the history of China. All you know is what the CCP has told you.
We left and returned!

The answer is Zero.

China has been running a trade surplus for many many years. Hence, in net figures, China has been making money off of foreign regimes.



None of this surplus is related to the political standoff between China and Taiwan. China and Taiwan have functioned as completely separate countries/regions since 1895, long before the PRC even existed and claimed to own Taiwan.



You can't "re-unify" something that was never unified before. Based on historical evidence (including statements made by the Qing government in China in relations with Japan in the 1870s) China never controlled nor claimed jurisdiction over more than about half of Taiwan. I'd like to express my disappointment about your never having learned facts that conflict with your CCP-based fiction.

You should study a little more about Taiwan's history before laying claim to the Taiwanese and their homes as being part of the PRC. If a billion people in China have come to believe that the Moon is made of cheese, just because their government told them so for 60 years, it still doen't make it true. Does it? STUDY!

Economies are driven by one thing the need to make money, why should any other country be different to another.



China has got countless trillions in keeping democracy out of China and being backed by then communist Russia against the fight of peoples rights.



On average China lets a fair package today do to the conditions that came from Mao era, an average it gets about 1-5 billion dollars a year in building aid, I think one year France gave it 10 billions, why on earth if China is so strong and powerful are they getting handouts?

Foreign imperialists and colonialists exploited China for much of the last two centuries. Here are the most infamous acts of criminality:



* Britain used military force during the 19th and early 20th centuries to compel China into unfavorable and unethical commercial relationships, such as allowing Britain to peddle opium to hapless Chinese peasants. Millions of Chinese died or were kept in poverty due to the ill effects of opium.



* Japan invaded China in 1931 and slaughtered over 10 million Chinese for the purpose of stealing natural resources from China. A 14 year war finally ejected the Japanese from Chinese soil.



* America supported the renegade warlord Chiang Kai-Shek when he seized Taiwan in 1949. Chiang Kai-Shek installed himself as "dictator for life" of Taiwan and 40 years of marshal law ensued. The U.S. used Taiwan as a pawn against Chinese development and peace.



I don't know how much money has been looted from China, but it must be in the trillions (adjusted for inflation).
