Taiwan is a self-governing island with a democratically elected National Assembly. However, China still considers the territory its own and has threatened to use force if the Taiwanese authorities officially declare the island as a separate state. The line that was crossed is a kind of unofficial border between China and Taiwan in the Taiwan Strait.
