Fuchien, Province in Taiwan

Fuchien province encompasses two island groups in the Taiwan Strait: the Kinmen Islands and the Matsu Islands, facing mainland China's coastline.

The province became part of the Republic of China's territory following the Chinese Civil War, retaining only the offshore islands near mainland China's coast.

The provincial population maintains traditional Min Chinese languages alongside Mandarin, reflecting the historical connection with southeastern mainland China.

The administrative center operates from Jincheng in Kinmen County, managing regional affairs for both the Kinmen and Matsu island groups.

Despite being a constitutional province of Taiwan, Fuchien consists solely of islands positioned closer to mainland China than to Taiwan's main island.
