And even then, it's only the Schengen Area, according to a Google Search, Vanuatuan Citizens can still travel to the Republic of Ireland Visa Free (the Republic of Ireland is in the EU), there are also many other countries that sell passports (aka Citizenship by Investment) with Austria (an EU member) being one of them Edit: Well I just found out that Ireland ended their Visa Free deal with Vanuatu so this doesn't apply anymore
Soviet has used this idea in a minimal version: during the foundation of UN Soviet successfully make Ukarine and Belarus a UN member while they are still a part of Soviet(Remember that in legal term the USSR is a union of Soviet republics and each one own their own anthem etc.)
Its quite dramatic for Nauru, a country that just 50 years ago had one of the highest GDP per capita on Earth (as well that the richest population), to nowadays having to rely on diplomatic prostitution. But, as Ned Kelly said, Such is life Edit: oh yeah i forgot to mention that they also had to rely on refugee asylums for some cash. But again, life can be a cruel mistress

So what price (and economic benefits) would these countries need to recognize Taiwan as a country over China? Could we fund this approach as a method of bankrupting China quicker enough to avoid a drag-out dogfight war?

Even if Tuvalu DOES sink, they'll still exist on the internet as a domain you have to pay royalties to. So, really, I don't think they can lose.
Maybe the real Tuvalu were the fruends we made along the way.
These island countries have prepared for the sinking: the whole population will move to AU and keeping independent
Maybe that's not the case
