Thank you very much! I did not know... But business is out of politics... Ok, let's add it manually :)

I was too quick answering that... You have Taiwan in the "world.*" files. And that's because of its sovereignty not being recognised by all the other countries.

Actually it should have the tw directory in data folder.

We use the traditional Chinese word, and the simplified Chinese is in China.

According to the country code reference site, we can find that the Taiwan country code is TW.

And it also has the Chinese domain name on RFC.

If possible, I can create the related PR about this :).
