 Population
• China has a population exceeding 1.4 billion, making it the most populous
country globally. The nation is experiencing demographic shifts due to a
low birth rate and an aging population, partly as a result of decades of the
one-child policy. Urbanization has rapidly increased, leading to significant
growth in major cities while rural areas face depopulation. The
government has shifted to a three-child policy to address these issues.
China's vast and diverse population influences its economic and social
dynamics profoundly. The country conducts regular censuses to monitor
these changes and inform policy decisions.

• China’s political system remains under the control of the Communist

Party, which maintains tight control over political expression and dissent.

including those related to Taiwan, the South China Sea, and trade relations
with other major economies. Despite these challenges, China's growth and
development continue to shape global dynamics significantly
