5 cities in this atlas
Taiwan's capital, Taipei, is also its largest city, a combination that concentrates political and economic weight in one place rather than dividing them between rival centers. Beyond this, the island's major settlements sit within a narrow band of latitude, suggesting a population distributed along a fairly compact north-south stretch rather than spread across widely separated climatic zones.
