As Chinese, we are very familiar with the term "China". This name, which has been passed down for thousands of years, shows the cultural confidence of our ancestors that the country they live in is the central country. But what did other civilizations call our country? This book deeply explores the various names used by different civilizations for this great country, China, from the three dimensions of language, history, and culture. It is divided into ten chapters to carefully analyze the profound meaning and evolutionary trajectory behind these names. With rich historical materials and unique insights, the author reveals the universal laws of language communication as a bridge for cultural exchanges. It not only presents a feast of cultural knowledge about China's nicknames, but also provides a vivid example of cultural exchanges and mutual learning. This book is not only an in-depth interpretation of Chinese names, but also a journey of cultural exploration across time, space and regions, allowing readers to appreciate the charm of China and broaden their cognitive boundaries while feeling the diversity and splendor of the world.
