Good catch - that error carried forward from a Traveller's Century Club list. The TCC needs to correct the designation on the checklist, although the TCC checklist itself is somewhat unique.
Actually Hong Kong, Macau, PRC and Taiwan each count as a country on the TCC list as does Alaska and Hawaii, but not California or Texas. On my flagged countries visited list I subtract Alaska, add Hawaii, Texas and California and throw in the Republic of Sonora for good measure.

It's
Republic of China. Or here on FT,
usually Taiwan will do, so not to confuse with China. Discussion about Taiwan happens in our
Asia Forum, while China goes to
China Forum.
