Hmm, yes I think it's kinda strange. What the use of dividing the country in so much provinces?



I think there too many provinces.

Thanks, that answered my question.

Maybe they should change it, because the way it is now might cause more bureaucracy. And hard to remember the names of 60 provinces. icon_smile.gif

Why is China such a large, filthy, and overpopulated cesspool? Why is China divided into like 49823094820394 provinces? Why are the Chinese so imperialist? Why is it that most of the territory the Chinese currently hold is rightfully someone elses? Tibet, Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Manchuria? etc.

Actually China was 26 or so provinces with a size similar to USA.

furthermore, Vietnam has probably tripled its size (compared with its original size).

VinhTroung, of course we have rights to hold those place, because Manchuria is home to our last dynasty. we have rights to hold tibet and mongol, because we own them, it is just like USA have rights to hold CA, AZ and texas

Your statements makes it quite obvious that you are ignorant of at least two things:

First, U.S. being larger than China is highly debatable. Here are the detailed stats of both China and the U.S. from CIA's "World Fact Book".

China

total: 9,596,960 sq km
land: 9,326,410 sq km
water: 270,550 sq km

U.S.

total: 9,631,418 sq km
land: 9,161,923 sq km
water: 469,495 sq km

I assume you are fluent with basic math and if I assume correctly, you should be aware that 9,326,410 > 9,161,923. However, because U.S. has more coastal areas, it has more "water regions" and therefore when you add both together, U.S. appears to be "bigger" than China, but then again, how many people do you know live on water?

Second, you are obviously quite ignorant when it comes to human development and basic sociology. But at least you know that there are different accents in American English so that should make my job a tad easier. The reason why China has various dialects while U.S. basically only has one is because of three main reasons: 1.) large, wide-spread land, 2.) language development through time, and 3.) methods of communication.

1.) Both China and U.S. have a large territory and we all know that when people are far apart, they start developing differently.

2.) As time go on, languages change, this is why it's difficult for us to read Shakespear's plays today when we're used to modern English as opposed to classical English. The Chinese language has been evolving and changing for over 4,000 - 5,000 years. American English only started to evolve and change about 200 years ago.

3.) One main reason why American English has so few variations is because of our modern inventions like TV, radio, and computer. Thousands, or even a couple of decades ago, such inventions didn't exist.

I assume you're intelligent enough to piece all of these facts together.

Have you looked at a map recently?

China is predominantly Mandarin. Then some Cantonese, Shanghainese, etc. Just like America is English with Spanish, French, and basically every language you can think of.
