China Wallpapers

China: China is the world's oldest continuous civilization, with a history characterized by repeated divisions and reunifications amid alternating periods of peace and war, and violent dynastic change. Power was generally concentrated in the hands of the emperor, but sometimes shifted to powerful officials, regional warlords, imperial relatives, and eunuchs. The country's territorial extent varied according to its shifting fortunes. For many centuries, most notably from the 7th through the 14th centuries, China stood as the world's most advanced civilization and as East Asia's dominant cultural influence. During the 19th and early 20th centuries the country was too weak to repel European colonialism and Japanese invasion, while at the same time suffering internal conflicts which led to its continuing division. A Communist victory in the Chinese Civil War established the People's Republic of China in the mainland while the Nationalists held out in Taiwan. Over thousands of years the Chinese created a system of medicine known as Traditional Chinese Medicine which is still used throughout China and is beginning to gain respect from western medical practictioners. The country's population of over 1.3 billion people makes up a fifth of the world's population and is overwhelmingly of the Han Chinese ethnicity. Their language, Chinese, is divided into many spoken variations. These spoken languages are used today in modern society and in many parts of Europe and America. [br] [br]
