Mainland I'm not sure. Taiwan's local culture is actually quite predominately influenced by one particular province in China, and that is Fujian. Most people who regard themselves as local Taiwanese have their ancestors from this region.
When KMT retreated from China to Taiwan in 1948, they brought around 2 million people to Taiwan, this group of people came from different regions of China.
There were also local aboriginal culture.
I guess reading up on wiki if you want english source on japanese resistance, objectivity may not be assured.
I think to know more about the background it also pays to read into Taiwan's history from before the 19th century.
I take it you can speak/understand hokkien?
