Southeast Asia, vast region of Asia situated east of the Indian subcontinent and south of China. It consists of two dissimilar portions: a continental projection (commonly called mainland Southeast Asia) and a string of archipelagoes to the south and east of the mainland (insular Southeast Asia). Extending some 700 miles (1,100 km) southward from the mainland into insular Southeast Asia is the Malay Peninsula; this peninsula structurally is part of the mainland, but it also shares many ecological and cultural affinities with the surrounding islands and thus functions as a bridge between the two regions. Mainland Southeast Asia is divided into the countries of Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar (Burma), Thailand, Vietnam, and the small city-state of Singapore at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula; Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, which occupy the eastern portion of the mainland, often are collectively called the Indochinese Peninsula. Malaysia is both mainland and insular, with a western portion on the Malay Peninsula and an eastern part on the island of Borneo. Except for the small sultanate of Brunei (also on Borneo), the remainder of insular Southeast Asia consists of the archipelagic nations of Indonesia and the Philippines. Southeast Asia stretches some 4,000 miles at its greatest extent (roughly from northwest to southeast) and encompasses some 5,000,000 square miles (13,000,000 square km) of land and sea, of which about 1,736,000 square miles is land. Mount Hkakabo in northern Myanmar on the border with China, at 19,295 feet (5,881 meters), is the highest peak of mainland Southeast Asia. Although the modern nations of the region are sometimes thought of as being small, they are—with the exceptions of Singapore and Brunei—comparatively large. Indonesia, for example, is more than 3,000 miles from west to east (exceeding the west-east extent of the continental United States) and more than 1,000 miles from north to south; the area of Laos is only slightly smaller than that of the United Kingdom; and Myanmar is considerably larger than France. All of Southeast Asia falls within the tropical and subtropical climatic zones, and much of it receives considerable annual precipitation. It is subject to an extensive and regular monsoonal weather system (i.e., one in which the prevailing winds reverse direction every six months) that produces marked wet and dry periods in most of the region. Southeast Asia’s landscape is characterized by three intermingled physical elements: mountain ranges, plains and plateaus, and water in the form of both shallow seas and extensive drainage systems. Of these, the rivers probably have been of the greatest historical and cultural significance, for waterways have decisively shaped forms of settlement and agriculture, determined fundamental political and economic patterns, and helped define the nature of Southeast Asians’ worldview and distinctive cultural syncretism. It also has been of great importance that Southeast Asia, which is the most easily accessible tropical region in the world, lies strategically astride the sea passage between East Asia and the Middle Eastern–Mediterranean world. Within this broad outline, Southeast Asia is perhaps the most diverse region on Earth. The number of large and small ecological niches is more than matched by a staggering variety of economic, social, and cultural niches Southeast Asians have developed for themselves; hundreds of ethnic groups and languages have been identified. Under these circumstances, it often is difficult to keep in mind the region’s underlying unity, and it is understandable that Southeast Asia should so often be treated as a miscellaneous collection of cultures that simply do not quite fit anywhere else. Roofs of the Forbidden City, Beijing, China Britannica Quiz All About Asia Yet from ancient times Southeast Asia has been considered by its neighbors to be a region in its own right and not merely an extension of their own lands. The Chinese called it Nanyang and the Japanese Nan’yō, both names meaning “South Seas,” and South Asians used such terms as Suvarnabhūmi (Sanskrit: “Land of Gold”) to describe the area. Modern scholarship increasingly has yielded evidence of broad commonalities uniting the peoples of the region across time. Studies in historical linguistics, for example, have suggested that the vast majority of Southeast Asian languages—even many of those previously considered to have separate origins—either sprang from common roots or have been long and inseparably intertwined. Despite inevitable variation among societies, common views of gender, family structure, and social hierarchy and mobility may be discerned throughout mainland and insular Southeast Asia, and a broadly common commercial and cultural inheritance has continued to affect the entire region for several millennia. These and other commonalities have yet to produce a conscious or precise Southeast Asian identity, but they have given substance to the idea of Southeast Asia as a definable world region and have provided a framework for the comparative study of its components.

Crea un quiz basandoti sul seguente testo: La Repubblica Popolare Cinese (中華人民共和國T, 中华人民共和国S, Zhōnghuá Rénmín GònghéguóP ascolta la pronuncia in mandarino standardⓘ), detta anche solo Cina (中國T, 中国S, ZhōngguóP; lett. "Paese di mezzo"),[7] è uno Stato dell'Asia orientale. La Repubblica Popolare Cinese è stata in passato indicata come Cina popolare, al fine di distinguerla dalla Repubblica di Cina, comunemente chiamata Taiwan (o Formosa), indicata invece come Cina nazionalista. Entrambe le entità reclamano il controllo sul territorio complessivo cinese. La Repubblica Popolare Cinese con 1 miliardo e 400 milioni di abitanti nel 2023 è lo stato più popoloso del mondo insieme all'India.[4] La Cina è una repubblica popolare in cui il potere è esercitato dal Partito Comunista Cinese (中国共产党 oppure 中共). Il governo ha sede nella capitale Pechino (北京首都) ed esercita la propria sovranità su ventidue province (省), cinque regioni autonome (自治区), quattro municipalità direttamente controllate (直辖市) (Pechino 北京, Tientsin 天津, Shanghai 上海 e Chongqing 重庆) e due regioni amministrative speciali 特别行政区 (Hong Kong 香港 e Macao 澳门) parzialmente autonome. La Cina rivendica la propria sovranità anche su Taiwan, che a propria volta rivendica la propria sovranità sulla Cina continentale. L'isola è rimasta dal 1949 sotto il controllo del governo della Repubblica di Cina (中華民國 o Taiwan), che precedentemente governava anche la Cina continentale, ed è rivendicata dalla Repubblica Popolare Cinese come provincia di Taiwan. La complessa condizione politica di Taiwan è una delle conseguenze della guerra civile cinese, che ha preceduto la fondazione della Repubblica Popolare Cinese. Con la sua superficie di circa 9 572 900 km², la Cina è il quarto stato più grande del mondo per superficie. Il paesaggio della Cina è vasto e diversificato: va dalle steppe della foresta e i deserti dei Gobi e del Taklamakan nell'arido nord alle foreste subtropicali e umide del sud. L'Himalaya, il Karakorum, il Pamir e il Tian Shan sono le catene montuose che separano la Cina meridionale dall'Asia centrale. Il Fiume Azzurro (长江) e il Fiume Giallo (黄河), rispettivamente il terzo e il sesto più lunghi del mondo, scorrono dall'altopiano del Tibet verso la costa orientale, densamente popolata. La costa della Cina lungo l'oceano Pacifico è lunga circa 14 500 chilometri ed è delimitata dal mare di Bohai, dal mar Giallo, dal mar Cinese Orientale e dal mar Cinese Meridionale. L'antica civiltà cinese, una delle più antiche al mondo, si sviluppò inizialmente nelle pianure comprese tra il Fiume Giallo e il Fiume Azzurro. A partire dall'età del bronzo, verso la fine del II millennio a.C., si ha evidenza di strutture feudali, in cui i nobili si raccoglievano intorno a monarchie ereditarie. Vi sono testimonianze di una casata regnante nella prima metà del I millennio a.C., nota come dinastia Zhou (周朝), il cui declino condusse alla nascita di un discreto numero di regni indipendenti in competizione per il predominio sulla regione (periodo delle Primavere e Autunni, 春秋), con stagioni di conflitto che si fecero particolarmente accese nel periodo che va dall'VIII al III secolo a.C. Nel 221 a.C. lo Stato di Qin sconfisse e conquistò i territori di tutti gli altri Stati combattenti, dando vita al primo impero della storia cinese sotto la guida del primo imperatore cinese Qín Shǐ Huángdì della dinastia Qin (秦朝). Da quel momento il titolo di imperatore della Cina divenne il sinonimo della raggiunta supremazia. La dinastia Qin non durò a lungo, infatti i popoli precedentemente conquistati vennero poco dopo riuniti sotto l'egida della dinastia Han (汉朝, III secolo a.C. - III secolo d.C.). I quattro secoli in cui regnarono i sovrani della dinastia Han sono considerati cruciali per la definizione e l'affermazione della identità culturale cinese, tanto da divenire il termine con cui i cinesi definirono se stessi (con il termine appunto di etnia o popolo han, 汉族). Da allora, la storia cinese ha visto l'alternarsi di periodi di divisione e fasi di unificazione, con conseguenti periodi di frammentazione, contrazione o espansione territoriale, sotto l'egida di diverse dinastie, talora di etnia straniera, come avvenuto nel caso dei mongoli o dei mancesi. L'ultima dinastia fu quella dei Qing, il cui regno si concluse nel 1911 con la fondazione della Repubblica di Cina (中华民国). Dopo la sconfitta dell'Impero giapponese (大日本皇国) durante la seconda guerra mondiale, il Paese fu scosso dalla guerra civile, che vedeva contrapposte le forze nazionaliste del Kuomintang (国民党), il partito che allora deteneva il governo del paese, e le forze facenti capo al Partito Comunista Cinese. Nel 1949 la guerra si concluse con la sconfitta del Kuomintang e la conseguente fuga del governo nazionalista sull'isola di Formosa, nella cui capitale Taipei (台北) ha tuttora sede l'attuale Repubblica di Cina, altresì nota come Taiwan. In seguito alla vittoria conseguita sul continente, il 1º ottobre del 1949 a Pechino le forze comuniste guidate da Mao Zedong proclamarono ufficialmente la nascita della Repubblica Popolare Cinese. Dopo l'introduzione di riforme economiche nel 1978, l'economia cinese è diventata quella dalla crescita più rapida al mondo. A partire dal 2013, è la seconda economia più grande al mondo sia come PIL totale nominale sia per parità di potere d'acquisto; per quanto riguarda solamente il PIL nominale, invece, la Cina ha sorpassato il Giappone, sino ad allora seconda potenza mondiale dal 1987, nel 2010. Nel 2022 il prodotto interno lordo cinese è sui ventimila miliardi di dollari.[8] Essa è anche il più grande esportatore e importatore di merci al mondo. La Cina è ufficialmente uno Stato munito di armi nucleari e ha il più grande esercito permanente del mondo, con il secondo più grande bilancio della difesa. È, inoltre, membro dell'ONU dal 1971, quando ha preso il posto della Repubblica di Cina tra i seggi dei membri permanenti del Consiglio di sicurezza delle Nazioni Unite, e quindi gode del potere di veto. La Cina è anche membro di numerose organizzazioni multilaterali,[9] tra cui l'OMC, l'APEC, il BRICS, l'Organizzazione di Shanghai per la cooperazione, il BCIM[10] e il G20. La Cina, unanimemente riconosciuta come grande potenza dal consesso internazionale, è una potenziale superpotenza secondo un certo numero di accademici e analisti che si occupano di questioni militari, politiche ed economiche. Dissidenti politici e gruppi per i diritti umani hanno denunciato la dittatura del governo cinese per diffuse violazioni dei diritti umani, tra cui repressione politica, repressione delle minoranze religiose ed etniche, censura, sorveglianza di massa e la violenza utilizzata nel reprimere il dissenso, come quella esibita durante le proteste di piazza Tienanmen del 1989.
