## What it is
Taiwan.md is an open-source, AI-friendly curated knowledge base about Taiwan, written in Traditional Chinese as the single source of truth and translated into 12 languages, with over 1000 Markdown articles. It ships as a static website with a knowledge graph, an npx CLI reader, and an MCP connector so AI tools like Claude or Cursor can answer questions with source-backed Taiwan content.

## Use cases
- learn about Taiwan in depth beyond Wikipedia
- give AI assistants reliable source-backed facts about Taiwan via MCP
- read Taiwan articles from the terminal with npx taiwanmd
- find official Taiwan government and resource websites
- explore connections between Taiwan topics via a knowledge graph
- translate or contribute articles about Taiwan in many languages
- use structured Markdown content about Taiwan for RAG pipelines

## When to choose
- you need curated, AI-readable content about Taiwan rather than encyclopedic or tourism material
- you want to ground LLM answers about Taiwan in a citable open knowledge base
- you want multilingual (12-language) Taiwan content with Traditional Chinese as the source of truth

## When to avoid
- you need neutral encyclopedic coverage comparable to Wikipedia
- you need a permissively licensed dataset - content is CC BY-SA 4.0 and the repo shows no code license
- you need strictly human-written content, since some articles are AI-assisted drafts under community review

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, search-engine, rag, mcp, cli
- domain: education, documentation, developer-tools
- platform: cli, cross-platform
