PROMPT: China has dominated East Asia historically and culturally for most of its history. As a regional superpower, the most populous nation on earth, and claiming a place as one of world’s largest economies makes it certain that it will continue to be the hinge in which East Asia turns.For good reason, The People’s Republic of China is a major focus of East Asia and this chapter. It could not be otherwise.
Write an essay explaining how China’s physical and human geography has impacted the realm’s development.
Explain how China’s geography can be utilized to better understand its strengths and weaknesses over the years (even historically over the centuries).
Explain the nation’s massive economic growth. Can you tell us about the rationale behind China’s 34 major political divisions? What about its demographic issues and government population policies?
A recurrent problem is that some regions in China have developed more quickly than others because of their location. For example, the coastline of China with its ports and fertile soil has developed more rapidly than western China with its deserts and mountains. Western China is more isolated and thus lags behind the coastal regions.
Explain the differences in China regionally highlighting factors such as resources, languages, etc. What are your impressions of China’s relationship with its neighbors?
