China is one of the oldest nations on the planet. Its list of dynasties, kingdoms and empires is a veritable who’s who of enlightened despots and monarchs, spanning thousands of years in the annals of world history. Today, China boasts the largest national population on the face of the Earth, with over 1.3 billion inhabitants—and it is currently ranked the fourth largest country in terms of total land area. Naturally then, a country so large is bound to have branches that extend throughout the lineage of mankind, from East to West.
The Chinese also have one of the oldest forms of writing, known as calligraphy. This system comprises a complex series of lines, dots and characters that make up the Chinese alphabet. This pictographic language also employs compound character forms that signify entire words, phrases, and concepts.
