Kule veki siza kuthetha ngento yelizwe lethu—-IRiphabhliki Yabantu baseTshayina.

IRiphabhlikhi yaBantu baseTshayina ikwimpuma yelizwekazi laseAsia, kumda wentshona wePasifiki. Ngumhlaba omkhulu, ogubungela i-9.6 yezigidi zeekhilomitha. I-China imalunga neshumi elinesixhenxe ubukhulu beFransi, i-1 yesigidi seekhilomitha ezincinci kunayo yonke iYurophu, kunye ne-600,000 yeekhilomitha zeekhilomitha ezincinci kune-Oceania (i-Australia, iNew Zealand, kunye neziqithi ezisemazantsi kunye nombindi wePasifiki). Indawo eyongezelelweyo ekude nonxweme, kuquka namanzi ommandla, imimandla yoqoqosho ekhethekileyo, kunye neshelufu yelizwekazi, iyonke ingaphezulu kwezigidi ezi-3 zeekhilomitha zeekhilomitha, nto leyo eyenza ukuba ummandla waseTshayina ufikelele kwi-13 yezigidi zeekhilomitha.

Iintaba zeHimalaya zaseNtshona China zidla ngokubizwa ngokuba luphahla lwehlabathi. INtaba iQomolangma (eyaziwa eNtshona njengeMount Everest), engaphezulu kweemitha ezingama-8,800 ukuphakama, yeyona ndawo iphakamileyo yophahla. I-China inabela ukusuka kwindawo yayo esentshona kwi-Pamir Plateau ukuya ekudibaneni kwe-Heilongjiang kunye ne-Wusuli Rivers, iikhilomitha ezingama-5,200 ukuya empuma.

Xa abemi bempuma yeTshayina bebulisa ukusa, abantu basentshona yeTshayina basajamelene neeyure ezine zobumnyama ezingakumbi. Indawo esemantla eTshayina iphakathi koMlambo iHeilongjiang, emantla eMohe kwiphondo laseHeilongjiang.

Eyona ndawo isemazantsi ibekwe eZengmu'ansha kwiSiqithi saseNansha, malunga neekhilomitha ezingama-5,500. Xa umntla weTshayina usabambelele kwihlabathi lomkhenkce nekhephu, iintyatyambo sele zidubula kumazantsi apholileyo. Ulwandle lwe-Bohai, ulwandle olumthubi, ulwandle lwase-China oluseMpuma, kunye nolwandle lwase-China olusemazantsi e-China ukuya empuma nasezantsi, kunye zenza indawo enkulu yaselwandle. Ulwandle oluphuzi, uLwandle lwaseChina lwaseMpuma, kunye noLwandle lwaseChina lwaseMzantsi ludibanisa ngqo noLwandlekazi lwePasifiki, ngelixa uLwandle lwaseBohai, lwamkela phakathi "kweengalo" ezimbini ze-Liaodong kunye ne-Shandong peninsulas, zenza ulwandle lwesiqithi. Ummandla waselwandle waseTshayina uquka iziqithi ezingama-5,400, ezinommandla oziikhilomitha ezingama-80,000 zizonke. Iziqithi ezibini ezinkulu, iTaiwan kunye neHainan, zigubungela i-36,000 yeekhilomitha zeekhilomitha kunye ne-34,000 yeekhilomitha zeekhilomitha ngokulandelanayo.

Ukusukela emantla ukuya emazantsi, imisinga yolwandle yaseTshayina iquka iBohai, iTaiwan, iBashi, kunye neQiongzhou Straits. I-China inama-20,000 eekhilomitha zomda womhlaba, kunye neekhilomitha ezingama-18,000 zonxweme. Ukusuka nakweyiphi na indawo kumda waseTshayina uze wenze isiphaluka esipheleleyo ubuyela kwindawo yokuqala, umgama ohanjiweyo ubuya kufana nokujikeleza iglowubhu kwi-ikhweyitha.
