The Taiwan one isn't fully accurate. Zhōng gùo applies as does Taiwan gùo depending on who you ask given they have a small population of Taiwanese natives they lived they before the mass ecosystem of the Republic of China during the civil war. Even includes a separate yet related language with 3 additional tones.
Yeah I wouldn't be surprised that the person created this image has an agenda.
