Mr assphucked, you should read this:

Japan controlled these islands from 1895 until her surrender at the end of World War II. The United States administered them as part of the United States Civil Administration of the Ryukyu Islands from 1945 until 1972, when they were reverted to Japan. Since 1971, they have also been claimed by both the Republic of China (Taiwan) and the People's Republic of China. China has claimed discovery and administration between 16th century or earlier until 1895

It was very very difficult to find this. I only found it in less than 2 second doing a search on google. "China has claimed discovery and administration between 16th century or earlier until 1895"
