Taiwan would be the smallest country to have airlines in all three major global alliances. The U.S. does, and P.R. China does as well, but those are massive markets both in terms of origin and destination traffic.
Even India doesn't have airline members in all three alliances, and its population and its traffic numbers are much larger than Taiwan's.
