China has a long history and culture with Confucian values that emphasize hierarchy and harmony. Mandarin is the dominant language. The government is an authoritarian single-party state led by the Communist Party, and political stability is a high priority. China has a growing economy but also high levels of pollution. The legal system is developing but enforcement can be inconsistent. Major industries include manufacturing, technology, and renewable energy. Entering the Chinese market requires understanding cultural norms and navigating a complex regulatory environment.
