Question
A blacksmith living on an island in this body of water used exploded artillery shells to create custom kitchen knives. During an incident named after this body of water, one country’s air force consisting of inferior F-86 Sabres was equipped with Sidewinder missiles as part of Operation Black Magic. A later incident named for this body of water occurred after a 1995 speech was given at Cornell by a politician nicknamed “Mr. Democracy.” One general’s campaign to establish the Kingdom of (*) Tungning began with capturing islands in this body of water like the Pescadores and subsequently laying siege to Fort Zeelandia. Matsu and Quemoy were heavily shelled during an incident in this body of water that was mediated by the Eisenhower Administration. For 10 points, name this body of water that names a 1950s international “crisis” and separates its namesake island from mainland China. ■END■
