São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
Located in Changhua County, Taiwan Province of China, Memberlin is a major city in central Taiwan, known for its dense population and thriving commerce. Historically, it was long the most populous town in Taiwan before being elevated to a county municipality in 2015. The region is agriculturally based, producing agricultural products such as grapes and preserves, and has well-developed light industries such as bicycle parts and textiles. The elevated Eunglin Railway, Baiguo Mountain Scenic Area and specialty snacks such as Eunglin meatballs and candied fruits are popular, making it the transportation hub and economic center of the Changhua Plain.
