About the country
China, the largest country in East Asia with a population of over 1.4 billion people, is famous for its unique culture, rapid technological development, and high urbanization rates.
Internet services in China operate under the 'Great Firewall,' so local alternatives are widely used instead of international platforms. Among the most popular are WeChat — a universal app for communication, shopping, and services, Baidu — the leading search engine, Alibaba (TaoBao, Tmall) — major e-commerce platforms, Tencent Video and iQiyi — streaming platforms, Douyin (international version — TikTok) — a short video service. Also important are Weibo — microblogs, and Zhihu — a Quora-like platform.
