Table of Contents Sample Articles Cities emerge from rice paddies. View from the I-Forum hotel near the railroad station, Shenzen Anyone who tries to teach the geography of China faces the dilemma of either being very general (almost superficial) or delving into so many aspects and details as to be unable to complete the task in a single semester. How does one integrate three thousand years of history, language, local cultural practices, diets, architecture, et al. with basic physical geographies and economics that range from subsistence farming and herding to sophisticated electronics and computer industries, cities like Shanghai or Shenzhen? To provide a sense of China’s diversity and its rich cultural fabric, one should probably divide the political unit into its natural parts, parts that are distinct both physically as well as culturally. Many of these "parts" have had a distinct cultural and political history as ancient kingdoms or states. Examples would include the ancient states of Shu and Ba in modern Sichuan, or of Nanzhao in modern Yunnan. In fact, each of the geographic regions discussed below at one time contained a distinct and separate culture, which over time have become melded into what is modern China. Still, these regions remain distinct in many respects. But, one also should demonstrate the many ways in which China has been "united" and how many of its canals and rivers have been evolved and used to "unite" these many parts.

The vastness of the country and the barrenness of the western hinterland have important implications for defense strategy.

Request Information Chin a's Geography Land as Varied as Her People In land size alone, China is the fourth largest country in the world. For centuries, much of this mysterious nation was hidden from outsiders. But when traders and foreign adventurers explored within China's borders, they found mountains, high plateaus, deserts, plains, deltas, and hills that rivaled those of legends. China's second longest river, the Huang He, (Yellow River) rises in Qinghai province and flows some 5000 km to the Yellow Sea, slowing to create crystal clear lakes along its journey. Of course, the Chang Jiang (Yangzi or Yangtze River), China's longest river, is world-reknowned. As China's "main street," this artery courses over 6300 km, through China's most economically developed regions, where the Three Gorges Dam is located. A huge public works project - the largest dam in the world - the Three Gorges Dam project rivals the Grand Canal and Great Wall and is wrapped in environmental, engineering, and political controversy.
