What differs, and by how much

Preferred written form The two preferred forms differ by a single character. In Taiwan the standard term is 維吉尼亞; on the Mainland it is 弗吉尼亚 - both point at “variant of 弗吉尼亞州|弗吉尼亚州”.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 維吉尼亞、弗吉尼亞 for this concept. The Mainland standard is among them - the difference is which form each side makes the default.

Neither term carries an HSK or TOCFL level in this table - this pair is dictionary-recorded, not syllabus-derived.

Pair source: the OpenCC cross-strait conversion table, which maps each Mainland term to the form used in Taiwan.
