The following year, the Legislative Yuan voted to abrogate the treaty.Liu, Weiling (1997-08-15), "Mongolian visitors draw attention to border debate", Taiwan Journal, retrieved 2010-01-04 The Republic of China continued to represent China at the United Nations (UN) until 1971 and used its position as a permanent member of the UN Security Council to block the admission of the Mongolian People's Republic into the UN throughout the 1950s.

The ruling was issued on March 2, 1821. Having resolved the significant jurisdictional issues, the Court issued a relatively-unremarkable opinion the next day on the merits of the case construing a Congressional statute authorizing a lottery in the City of Washington, District of Columbia. (At the time, the District of Columbia consisted of two cities, the other being Alexandria, which was retroceded to the State of Virginia in the 1840s so that it could keep its role as a major slave market outside the federal capital.) The main issue in the case was the preliminary issue of whether the Supreme Court had jurisdiction to hear an appeal in a criminal case decided by the courts of Virginia. It was argued by Virginia that the U.S. Constitution does not give the Supreme Court appellate jurisdiction over criminal judgments by the state courts.
Certain ambiguous wording in the treaty concerning the controversial political status of Taiwan (i.e. whether the territory of Taiwan was legally retroceded to the Republic of China in 1945) after Japan renounced all right, title, and claim concerning the island of Taiwan, the Pescadores, the Spratly Islands, and the Paracel Islands in 1952 (with the ratification of this treaty in the ROC) has given rise to the Theory of the Undetermined Status of Taiwan, which is one of the major theories within this debate. This particular theory is generally Taiwan independence-leaning since it offers evidence supporting the notion that Chinese sovereignty over Taiwan (whether ROC or PRC) is either illegitimate or temporary and must be resolved via the postcolonial principle of self-determination. Proponents of this theory generally do not claim that Japan still has or should have sovereignty over Taiwan, though there are exceptions.

The French colonial empire constituted the overseas colonies, protectorates and mandate territories that came under French rule from the 16th century onward. A distinction is generally made between the "First French Colonial Empire," that existed until 1814, by which time most of it had been lost or sold, and the "Second French Colonial Empire", which began with the conquest of Algiers in 1830. At its apex, the Second French colonial empire was one of the largest empires in history. Including metropolitan France, the total amount of land under French sovereignty reached in 1920, with a population of 110 million people in 1936. France began to establish colonies in North America, the Caribbean and India in the 17th century but lost most of its possessions following its defeat in the Seven Years' War.
