    1. The time of facing the sun is different.

    Foreigners rarely hold umbrellas when they go out, and even girls basically don't hold them. Whether they usually go out or travel, they prefer to soak up the sun. Chinese generally wear sunscreen when they go out, and girls generally have to hold an umbrella.

    2. The time period of bathing is different.

    Foreigners are used to taking a bath in the morning, while Chinese are used to washing at night. But it's also strange that many times we wash our feet before going to bed when we don't take a shower at night, but foreigners don't have this habit, they take a bath when they want to, and never wash their feet alone.

    3. The standard of beauty is different.

    I believe many people have a deep understanding of this cultural difference, foreigners have always been more direct, and beautiful things are just to be shown. Chinese are different, often more subtle and tactful, and more conservative in dressing.

    It's no wonder that I have always felt that those colorful and revealing clothes are ugly and sold so expensive. It's all because of different cultures, different living environments, and different aesthetics.

    Generally speaking, foreigners refer to Chinese as Chinese, because the abbreviation of the People's Republic of China is China, and Chinese abroad are generally Chinese. The exception is Vietnam, which in ancient times was only a small dependent country of China, and the Vietnamese would use to call the Chinese the Northern Dynasty. In Russia, they mainly call the Chinese Khitans.

    This is mainly because of the Liao State established by the Khitans, and the Liao State also had a very important impact on Russia at that time.

    Foreign names for Chinese, different countries, different periods, the title is different, for example, Western European people call Chinese as China, Chinese is actually from the pronunciation of "Qin" (chin), plus a is to indicate the region, China actually refers to the Qin Dynasty, and the same Chinese is the Qin people. The name of the ** in the ancient Qin Empire of our country was quite influential.

    The Middle East, Eastern Europe, and Russia call the Chinese Khitan. In fact, this is related to the medieval period, the Khitan established the Liao State in northern China, at that time, the territory of the Liao State occupied the entire Silk Road, and even the territory reached the vicinity of present-day Russia, and the cultural export of the Song Dynasty at that time must pass through the Silk Road, and over time, these cultures were regarded as Khitans, so they were called Khitans. At the same time, the Khitan costumes and characters are very similar to the costumes and characters of the Song Dynasty, so it is normal for these foreigners to be confused, but the name of the Chinese can only be retained.

    2. What East Asia and other countries call us.

    North Korea called the Chinese treasurers, which mainly happened in the Qing Dynasty, because the Qing Dynasty people at that time were very good at business, and the Koreans always suffered a loss when doing business with the Qing Dynasty people.

    The Vietnamese called the Chinese boatmen, so the Chinese at that time often took big ships to interact with them, and in their eyes, the ancient Chinese were very remarkable.

    In ancient times, Japan called the Chinese Tang people, which was influenced by the Tang Dynasty. In modern times, Japan defeated the Qing Dynasty after the Sino-Japanese War and began to call us by contemptuous titles, which also made the Chinese have a long memory.

    India calls Chinese Aurora, probably with a little of its own accent when translating "China", that is, China, so it is translated as "Aurora". In addition to these, there are many other names, in short, many of them refer to China with Chinese culture.

    Foreigners call Chinese in their country are generally called ethnic Chinese, but there are also many foreigners who still have a lot of stereotypes about China, and they always think that Chinese have small eyes, and in terms of personality, they always think that all Chinese are introverts. In fact, stereotypes do not only happen to Chinese, but also have a lot of prejudices against other ethnic groups.

    Because of the recent epidemic prevention and control, many people have a vague understanding of the scope of foreigners in the Notice. Does overseas mean abroad? So what does it have to do with overseas? A more specific division is shared with you.

    Taking China as an example, it refers to the areas within and outside China that China** has not yet exercised administrative jurisdiction. Outside the territory is not the same as the land border, but also includes the part of the territory that is not yet under administrative jurisdiction. Therefore, the mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan belong to China, and China and Taiwan currently belong to overseas.

    Therefore, it is most likely wrong to say that the Taiwan region belongs to overseas before the handover.

    On July 1, 1997, Hong Kong returned to the motherland.

    Places outside Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are called overseas. Unlike overseas, overseas locations do not include China and Taiwan.

    Macao was returned to the motherland on 20 December 1999.

    Foreign and overseas are synonymous, but there is a difference between foreign rulers and foreign countries. Foreign refers to countries and regions outside China, and foreign refers to countries outside China. The state has sovereignty, but the region has no sovereignty.

    There are currently 197 countries and 31 regions in the world (e.g. Kashmir).

    Overseas, excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

    Whether overseas areas include Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan needs to distinguish between border areas and customs areas.

    Frontier refers to the extent within which a country exercises pure sovereignty. From the perspective of the frontier, Hong Kong and Macao belong to the "territory".

    A customs territory is one that applies the same customs laws or customs regime. From the perspective of customs territories, Hong Kong and Macao are separate customs territories, which are "overseas" relative to the mainland.

    Mainlanders who go to Hong Kong and Macao are not going abroad, they are going abroad. Therefore, mainlanders going to Hong Kong and Macao are included in the management of going abroad.
