Nanjing is the provincial capital of Jiangsu and has a population of 5 million. It
is the center of agriculture, electronics and automobile industries. Due
to its strategic location, Nanjing was the Capital of China in different
times and also it was the battlefield in many wars.
Nanjing is a beautiful city with plenty of trees alongside the boulevards. Yet
summer there is unbearable hot and it is well known as one of the three
"furnace" in China.
is well known by the West. Do you know how many Chinese were killed
by Japanese during the war? In one single city, Nanjing, Japanese soldiers
slaughtered 300,000 Chinese during a period of several weeks. If you want
to know the fact, visit "Memorial
of the Nanjing Massacre".
There are too many historical events that Chinese never forgot. Chinese
government was forced to sign the "Nanjing Treaty" in 1842 after
being defeated in the "Opium War" against Britain. Since then
the West and Japanese started one hundred years assault to Chinese. Even
today, the same gang but led by America, covered up with the mask of
"human right" or "democracy", still attempts to split
China and never stop interfering in the last one hundred years.
China is awakening and we will never let the shameful history to repeat again.
