In the long history of our country, there have been five countries that have existed as our territory. However, over time, these countries became independent and began their own development process. Today, the development status of these countries is different, but they all face various difficulties. So, is there any hope for these countries to return to our country?
Mongolia's independence is undoubtedly a humiliation for China as a weak country. Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia were originally a family living together on the land of China. However, with the decline of the Qing Dynasty, Mongolia gradually separated from China, and eventually, at the height of New China's weakness, Chiang Kai-shek's decision caused China to lose Outer Mongolia.
On August 14, 1945, one day before Japan announced its "unconditional surrender", the National** signed the Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Alliance with the Soviet Union. The core of the treaty was to allow Outer Mongolia to have a referendum on independence.
At this time, China had declined to the point where it could not negotiate with the Soviet Union. As a result, it is not surprising that under the Soviet-backed Outer Mongolia **, there were as many as 978% of Outer Mongolian citizens support independence. In this way, China has lost nearly 1.57 million square kilometers of land in Outer Mongolia.
Mongolia, a country nestled in the vast steppe, now faces many challenges. Despite its staggering reserves of abundant mineral resources, such as natural gas and oil, the economy is in trouble. In this sparsely populated country, the land flows with **, but it is unable to make full use of these resources to promote economic development.
Mongolia's development woes are no accident. First of all, the monolithic industrial structure makes the Mongolian economy highly vulnerable to fluctuations in the international market. Over-reliance on the export of mineral resources has led to a lack of diversification and stability in the country's economy. Second, the lag in infrastructure construction is also an important factor restricting economic development. Problems such as inconvenient transportation and poor communication have limited the efficiency and scope of economic activities, and have greatly constrained economic development.
In order to alleviate the country's economic predicament, Mongolia once issued a "national salvation order" to its citizens, asking everyone to sell cattle and sheep to repay the country. This move has undoubtedly placed a heavy burden on the Mongolian people. However, it also reflects Mongolia's helplessness and determination in the face of economic difficulties.
The signing of the Sino-Russian Treaty on the Survey and Demarcation of the Northwest Boundary revealed the occupation of 440,000 square kilometers of land in northwest China by Tsarist Russia. This incident is undoubtedly a huge blow to China's history and national feelings.
After Tsarist Russia seized 1.5 million square kilometers of land in northwest China, most of China's northwestern land has been divided. However, the vicissitudes of history are not limited to this paper treaty.
At the same time that Tsarist Russia invaded and occupied the northwestern lands of China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan were all Chinese territories before independence. After the Russians seized the northwestern lands, the lands of northwestern China were divided up in large quantities, and these regions were divided into different countries.
Today, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan are independent, but their history and blood ties are still closely linked to China. However, after independence, the development of these three countries was not ideal.
First of all, geographical constraints pose a serious obstacle to the development of these countries. Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan are all landlocked and have relatively little contact with the outside world. This puts them at a disadvantage in terms of access to markets, technology and capital. For example, the agricultural and mineral resources of these countries are difficult to export due to inconvenient transportation, and their economic development is greatly constrained.
Second, the weak economic foundation is also an important reason for the development difficulties of these countries. The economies of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan are largely dependent on agriculture and mining, and the development of both industries is subject to natural conditions and market demand. In addition, the economic structure of these countries is homogeneous and lacks diversified economic growth points, which makes economic development vulnerable to external shocks.
Moreover, the instability of the political environment has had a negative impact on the development of these countries. While the political situation in Kazakhstan is relatively stable, there is some uncertainty about the political situation in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Ethnic issues, political struggles and the intervention of external forces may adversely affect the stability and development of a country.
Vietnam, a small country in Southeast Asia, has always regarded itself as "Little China" in the long river of history. This is not for nothing, but because Vietnam has historically been heavily influenced by Chinese culture and has been part of Chinese territory for a long time.
As early as the Qin Dynasty, the north-central part of Vietnam was known as the Land of Bai Yue, part of the vast territory of the Qin Dynasty, where Qin Shi Huang established Xiang County. At that time, the seeds of Chinese civilization took root here, laying the foundation for Vietnam's cultural development.
Subsequently, Vietnam entered a period of control by the Central Plains Dynasty, which lasted for thousands of years. During this period, the essence of Chinese culture, such as poetry and songs, morality and ethics, and political system, had a profound impact on Vietnam.
It was not until the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period that Wu Quan defeated the Southern Han army in the "Battle of the Bai Teng River", which allowed Vietnam to become independent from Chinese control. However, even after independence, Vietnam remained a vassal state of China and maintained close ties with Chinese civilization.
However, in the late Qing Dynasty, due to the weakening of the Qing Dynasty's national power, it gradually lost its suzerainty over Vietnam. Despite this, the influence of Chinese culture still leaves a deep imprint on Vietnam. This influence is not only reflected in language, writing, art, etc., but also penetrates into the daily life and way of thinking of the Vietnamese people.
Today, when we look back on this period of history, we can see the close connection between Vietnam and Chinese civilization. This connection is not only political control and subordination, but also cultural exchange and integration. It is this profound cultural heritage that allows Vietnam to call itself "Little China" and presents us with a unique cultural landscape in Southeast Asia.
Nowadays, Vietnam is facing a number of challenges in its development.
1.Homogeneous economic structure: Vietnam's economy is mainly dependent on exports, especially labor-intensive industries. This kind of economic structure is easy to lead to fluctuations in foreign countries, and once the export market declines, it will have a negative impact on the entire economy.
2.Poor infrastructure: Vietnam's infrastructure is relatively backward, such as transportation, electricity, communications, etc. This not only affects the production and operation of enterprises, but also restricts the further development of the economy.
3.Rising labor costs: With an aging population and changes in the labor market, labor costs in Vietnam are rising. As a result, some labor-intensive industries have gradually lost their competitive advantages, putting pressure on economic development.
4.Environmental issues: Vietnam is also facing some environmental issues in the process of economic development. For example, the environment in some areas is seriously polluted, which has an impact on the health of local residents and the ecological environment.
For these five countries, the question of regression is a complex one that requires a number of factors to be taken into account. But we can be sure that the ties and historical ties between these countries and my country will continue. This connection is not just an emotional identity, but also a connection based on history, culture, and economy. In the future, China can establish closer relations with these countries, provide necessary support and assistance, and jointly promote regional peace, stability, development and prosperity.
Finally, it should be pointed out that we should respect the independence and sovereignty of these countries, whether or not they return to our country. Independence is a fundamental right of a country, and we should respect and protect this right. At the same time, we should also maintain friendly relations with these countries and jointly promote regional peace, stability, development and prosperity. Only in this way can long-term peace and prosperity in the region be achieved.
