Where does China rank in population?

They have the largest population in the world, but India is right behind them. They both have over a billion people, at 1.3 and 1.2 billion, respectively (based on July 2015 numbers).

The European Union, by comparison, has less than half of either of those countries, at 513 million. The US has 321 million. Indonesia has 255 million, Brazil has 204 million, and Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh, and Russia round out the top ten with 199, 188, 168, and 142 million, respectively.

All the rest of the countries have fewer people, and even collectively don't have as many as China and India. China has about 20% of the world's population all by itself.

Who colonized China?

Almost all powerful Western countries and Japan colonized some areas in China (total around 5-10% of China's areas, but those areas are the best and most important lands, cities and seaports). Each country colonized a small region in China. Some regions are very large though like Manchurian provinces colonized by Russia and later by Japan after a serious war between Russia and Japan. Britain colonized Hong Kong and Canton area and some area in Shanghai. Germany colonized Ching Tsao area. Dutch invaded and colonized Taiwan. Portugal colonized Macau. France took Vietnam and some other areas in China. During Qing Dynasty, Manchu Chinese controlled the Government of China. Manchu Chinese badly managed the country. So, Han Chinese, the majority of China and the cultural big boss of China, waked up from a long, nice and peaceful sleep. Now, Han Chineses controlled the Government and it is totally a different phenomenon. However, because of Western countries continual support of separation of China until today, China was split into pieces. Outer Mongolia went into independence with the support of USSR. North East and North West regions of China were occupied and controlled by Russia til today. Just these 2 areas are about one third the area of China now! China now is facing another intention to separate Tibet with foreign aids from Western countries. China is pity! China was too big and wealthy that it attracted too many ants to eat it!

Is this right? That Dutch also colonize Taiwan? I thought Dutch only colonize Indonesia..................

We have some small problems with farming in Canada

Which best explains why the relationship between the United States and China improved toward the end of the twentieth century?

The Sino-Soviet split. Although both were communist countries, relations between the USSR and the People's Republic of China progressively soured after the unfavorable (for the communists) outcome of the Korean War. There were border clashes, and even the threat of a Soviet nuclear strike. The US, taking advantage of this, was eager to embrace China to pull it further away from the Soviet Union, while China was relieved to have the United States on its side against the Soviets. (Indeed, the United States informed the Soviet Union it would come to the defense of China in the event of a Soviet nuclear attack, which quickly dispelled any notions the latter had of atomic military adventurism.)

Why is China called the peoples republic of China?

cause china(people republic of china) and Taiwan was a contry, after war Taiwan (as republic of china)lost the war, so they separated.the communist got china,so they use the name, they cant be 2 china in the world, so they use Taiwan.but the real name is republic of china(ROC)

Not totally correct and very misleading. Taiwan was awarded to Japan in 1895 because of military superiority of China. Taiwan people did not have a military and China sent ships to the island in order for sugarcane and numerous minerals to be mined and grown for money to be sent back to the Empress. The Republic of China is not a land/country but it is a "government". It was the name of the government on the mainland of China up until they were defeated just after WWII. Taiwan first tried to assert themselves as an independent country in 1895 and again in 1945 (approximately) after the defeat of Japan. Because Chiang, Kai Shek was an ally during WWII and since he was being defeated on the mainland, it was thought that if he took the island, that China could be monitored by the US. The people were mistreated and killed until they were subdued enough to stop fighting back and to realize that they could not take back their country. The real name of the island is Formosa or Taiwan...not "The Republic of China". The island has only been controlled by Chinese forces for a little over 100 years prior to Japan being the so-called "owners". Taiwan NEVER fought China...therefore they could never have lost. People should read and learn and not follow what anybody says or writes.

Which group was forced to go on the long march?

The Red Army of the Chinese Communist Party.

Why?

In 1930, the Communist Red Army 红军established the Chinese Soviet Republic中华苏维埃共和国 in the southern provinces of Jiangxi and Fujian around the city of Ruijin. At that time, the Republic of China was controlled by the Kuomintang, the party lead by Chiang Kai-shek. In the autumn of 1933, Chiang started a huge attack against the Communists who were in Jiangxi and Fujian. He sought to elliminate the Communists from the Chinese political landscape.

In short, the Long March is the Red Army's military campaign to avoid and survive the hunt of the Kuomintang.
