The United States of China (in traditional Chinese: 中華合衆國, in zhuyin , transliterated Zhōngguá Hézhòngguó) is a federal republic composed of fifteen different States in the far east of the Asian continent, bordering the Eurasian Union to the north and northwest and the breakaway regions of Tibet to the west and Yunnan and Guangxi to the southwest, as well as the Portuguese Overseas Territory of Macau. To the south is the Kingdom of Viet Nam as well as, across the China Sea, the Dominion of China, part of the Imperial Federation (composed of the territories of Hong Kong and the isle of Hainan), and across the same sea to the east the Japanese province of Taiwan and Korea. At 891 million people, China is the second largest country in the world, after the nearby Indic Federation, and, at over 5.5 trillion Euros, the third largest GDP in the world, after Eurasia and the United States of America.
China is one of the, if not the, oldest extant civilisations in the world (actually a topic of much contention with the nationalist government of Aryanam), with the Shang dynasty starting long before the start of Western civilisation. The continued replacement of dynasties in a monarchical fashion continued with only very brief interruptions of chaos for nearly thirty-six centuries, until the 1900s, when finally the population rebelled against the inefficient and corrupt administration of the Qing dynasty, after constant affronts by part of colonial powers such as the United Kingdom and France during the Opium Wars, as well as French intervention onto Guangdong and Russian intervention in Manchuria. The Chinese Revolution eventually led to the expulsion of the Qing dynasty to occupied Russian territories in Manchuria, which eventually were annexed by the reformed Eurasian Union together with the autonomous regions of Mongolia and Uyghuristan. Tensions between the nascent Chinese government, under the leftwing United League (Tongmenhui) and Europe remained high, and China soon became one of the largest enemies to the European Concert, with close relations to the United States and the Boulangist states against Europe.
Today, China is a large, federal republic with a political system split between three major blocs (Yellows, blues and reds) created roughly along the American federal system in fifteen of eighteen of the Historical Provinces of China Proper, elevated to state status (China claims the other three provinces and Taiwan as Federal States which have representation in the Lìfǎyuàn). China, after the end of the Reagan dictatorship and the establishment of a pro-European foreign order by part of the post-collapse governing party, the People's Alliance, in the United States, remains the last major bastion (together with Brazil and to a degree the non-aligned Aryanam) of anti-Europeanism and opposition to European initiatives internationally; of course, at a reduced level from what it once did, given that China's industrialising economy needs access to Western markets. Relations remain especially cold with Eurasia and the Indic Federation, whom they find as thieves of "traditional Chinese land".
