Interesting that a Taiwan IP range would be listed as "Province of China".
One possible interpretation is there's a thing called "de jure China", and both P.R.China and R.O.China (Taiwan) can claim themselves as legit. It's just de facto R.O.China happens to control only one province within China with is Taiwan (maybe plus some islands from Fujian).

I think the more interesting thing is that Crimean IPs are listed as part of Russia (e.g. https://ipv4.dev.sarl/@zoom=16&ip=77.121.55.93). Practically speaking Crimea operates as province of Russia nowadays, but I believe formally/diplomatically most countries still recognize it as part of Ukraine. That's almost a reversal of Taiwan, which operates as an independent country in practice, but for formal/diplomatic purposes is considered as part of "One China".
One of the ad techs lurking here can probably even help you switch out the ML fakes for the real thing. :)
Edit: zooming in it actually places me in Sweden and even gets my ISP right. But still categorises me as North America. Did geography change while I slept?
(For me it was also in North America whereas I am in the Netherlands.)
The original /8 was assigned to ARIN (which handles IP addresses in the US), and then later a more specific subnet (like a /16) was transferred to RIPE (which handles the European region).
So while the big block is correctly shown as North America, the smaller ones shouldn't be.

There are cars that are more expensive than that, so setting up a new (g)TLD is really not that difficult or expensive for any moderately large organization.
At this point, just about any random word in the dictionary has probably been made into a TLD:

Sounds about right.
If you type "how many ipv6 addresses" to google you get this weird number:
"340 trillion trillion trillion IP addresses"
Yes, it would. It isn't any different from the linked article. You just zoom out until it fits.
