About China
With a history that stretches back 40 centuries, the People's Republic of China has been ruled under many different dynasties and ruling systems, and with recent improving ties with the West, is poised to be a major component to the world's economic future. China's 1.2 billion people (the highest of any country in the world) are mostly spread throughout the eastern and southern part of the country, including its major cities, Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou and Hong Kong (thanks to its recent independence from Britain).
