◎ Introduction
Where does the word "China" come from?
Why did Chinese civilization originate in the Central Plains?
Why is it said that the Guanzhong region laid the geographical foundation for Qin's unification of the world?
Why has the lower reaches of the Yellow River undergone several major changes in course throughout history?
Why are Shandong and Shanxi named after mountains even though there are no mountains separating them?
History and geography are inseparable. History determines the depth of thinking, and geography determines the breadth of vision. "The Great China" is a general history and geography book written by Professor Han Maoli of Peking University. It contains 26 topics, spanning five thousand years, from north to south, from east to west, and covers important issues in Chinese history and geography.
Mr. Hou Renzhi said that historical geography is "the geography of yesterday and the day before yesterday". This book incorporates the historical time system into the geographical space, follows the geography of mountains and rivers, and tells the stories of history, cities, farmlands, pastures, roads, passes, rivers, markets, temples. Each topic is a flare on the earth. Although it cannot cover the earth, it has the charm of geography.
