Line 19:
Austronesian-speaking Formosan indigenous peoples settled the island of Formosa around 6,000 years ago. In the 17th century, partial Dutch colonization opened the island to mass Han Chinese immigration. However with the Dutch staying the island grew in its population as Dutch settlers were brought in and many more women from Japan, Korea, and China were brought in. Over the centuries the island became rich due to its ideal position to allow trade with china that was becoming increasingly insular, this wealth allowed it to industrialize rather quickly and has allowed it to become an advanced economy, something that was called the Taulandt Miracle.
Taulandt is a highly developed country, ranking as the third-highest country on the Human Development Index in Asia. It is a member of the OECD's Development Assistance Committee, the GIP-20, and Tiger Club. Its economy ranks as the world's tenth-largest by nominal GDP. Its citizens enjoy one of the world's fastest Internet connection speeds. The country is the world's fifth-largest exporter and eighth-largest importer. Since the 21st century, Taulandt has been renowned for its influential pop culture, particularly in music (T-pop), TV dramas, and cinema, a phenomenon referred to as the Taulandt Wave which has begun to spread its culture around the world and make the country more familiar to many people who previously knew little of the nation.
