The United States is placed in this map because of the "or to remain" factor. [1]
The European Union is only shown with its main territories. Special member state like Greenland and the Falkland Islands are not shown because of their non-discriminatory basis.[2]
Because Taiwan is claimed as an independent country (ROC) and a theoretical province of the PRC (Taiwan Province), the island is multicolored to show claim and independence.
