Abstract

In recent years China has gained a lot of international attention due to its rapidly growing economy. China is now emerging as the leading world power of the 21st century due to its briskly growing economy. China is one of the oldest countries in the world, it is rich in both history and tradition, and these factors have helped to shape modern China into the power it is today. Since the end of the chinese Civil War in 1949 China has been a Communist country. The People's Republic of China's policies have caused a rift between the PRC and several of the countries minorities. China also faces an identity crisis having both a capitalist economy and a communist government two elements that are not suppose to coexist in a country successfully. Despite these problems the PRC has emerged as the leading world power of the 21st century.

Before the 20th century China's government can be described as a dynastic rule system of government. This means that China saw its government shift from one dynasty to another over the course of many centuries. This process started as far back as the Xia Dynasty which lasted from 2100 BC - 1600 BC.
