    Isn’t Taiwan like the largest supplier of lithium? I imagine every country will fight tooth and nail for their resources.

      No, Taiwan is not a producer of lithium. It does however host the leading and most important semiconductor fabs in the world. A war would have catastrophic consequences, given that everyone depends on chips from the island nation.

        Ah yes the semiconductors! Yeah I imagine the world would do whatever they can to keep China from having control over semiconductors.
