China has one of the world's oldest and continuous civilizations, consisting of states and cultures dating back more than six millennia. It has the world's longest continuously used written language system, and is viewed as the source of many major inventions. Historically, China's cultural sphere has extended across East Asia as a whole, with Chinese religion, customs, and writing systems being adopted to varying degrees by neighbors such as Japan, Korea and Vietnam.

Is it really that bad? Surely it will help countries that import goods from China? Asked by Carefree - Fri Dec 5 14:59:26 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. By making their money cheaper it makes their goods cheaper. So, yes, people buy more from them cheaper. But that moves money to China, it drains money from the United States that because they are making OUR goods MORE expensive they don't buy from us. Exchange rates if are allowed to operate in a free market, float normally, their money would increase value to balance the unfair, unequal trade balance, making our goods cheaper and they would buy more from us. But China is controlling their money value by manipulation to drain money from other countries. Answered by Thor - Fri Dec 5 15:21:44 2008 How is China for a lone female traveler? Q. If there is a single female tourist in China who doesn't speak Chinese except the basic greetings, what difficulties would she encounter? Is it safe for a female to travel alone?

If you're the one going to China, yes, I read lots of books/traveling books, etc before my trip to China (but I'm not a woman, as you can see by the pic) but my point is that all those books say it is safe for women, western woman in particular, to travel in China.Obviously like any other traveler, you have to be careful, be informed, be aware about your surroundings, use common sense. Good luck (if you're going), I can't wait to go! Answered by ricmon87 - Sat Jul 28 14:40:48 2007 How do I pack my china and crystal?

Answered by bundy_boy38 - Thu Mar 22 21:26:12 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "China" China is a cultural region and ancient civilization in East Asia. China refers to a one of the world's oldest civilization comprising successive states and cultures dating back more than 6,000 years. Due to the stalemate of the last Chinese Civil War following World War II, China currently looks like two separate countries: the People's Republic of China (PRC) and Republic of China (ROC). The PRC administers and governs mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau, while the ROC administers and governs Taiwan and its surrounding islands. Each government used to claim that it was the only official government of China. However, PRC is nowadays widely accepted in the world as the only offical government.
