Taiwan is located in Eastern Asia just off the southeastern coast of China, north of the Philippines. It spans an area slightly smaller than Maryland and Delaware combined. The climate in Taiwan is tropical with a rainy season during the southwest monsoon (June to August) and frequent cloudiness. Much of the eastern territory is covered by rugged mountains while the west forms flat to slightly rolling plains. Natural resources include small amounts of coal, natural gas, limestone, marble and asbestos.
Taiwan has a dynamic capitalist economy with diminishing government involvement in investment and foreign trade. Gross domestic product (GDP) growth has averaged 8% for the past thirty years. Exports have grown even faster and now provide the basis for Taiwan's economy. The success of the export sector has given Taiwan a seven-year-high real GDP growth of 6.1% in 2004. However, excess inventory, higher international oil prices, and rising interest rates dampened consumption in developed markets, and GDP growth dropped to 3.8% in 2005. Agriculture comprised 35% of GDP in 1952, but today it contributes only 2%. Taiwan is an important and major investor in many Asian nations and China has become its largest export market. Taiwan's GDP is comprised of: agriculture (2%), industry (29%), and services (69%).
