Never realized South Korea, Taiwan, or other SEA countries are not democracies but dictatorships.

South Korea at least should probably be included in this map. It generally does include capitalist democracies, but it's not sufficient and probably not necessary for the general criteria.

Never heard that they don't generally stand alongside the rest of democracies if you hear 'international community'. All of them condemning Russias attack on Ukraine, China taking parts of the Philippines and the terrorist attack on Israel from the Hamas.
