I just recognize everything as it is

There is still a North and South Korean government, both recognized by the UN

Crimea is controlled by Russia but is also claimed by Ukraine, so it's a disputed region

Israel and Palestine exist whether you like it or not, their borders on the world map are disputed but exist.

While I have South Vietnamese-Origins I recognize North and South Vietnam as one state (much to my displeasure), South Vietnam has NO self-standing government.

Etc.

While politics can be differently interpreted by the masses, I don't change general history  or anything to make me feel better. I just look at the up-to-date world map and accept it.
