and from the midstream of the Heilong River north of Mohe in the north to the southernmost island Zengmu ’ansha in the South China Sea, about 5, 500 kilometers apart. It is a united multi-ethnic country being divided into 23 provinces, 5 autonomous regions, 4 municipalities, and 2 special administrative regions directly under the central government. • The name “China” is an English Transliteration of the Chinese Character “秦” (pronounced "chin"), which was the first imperial dynasty of the country being in power between 221 B.C. and 209 B.C.
