    China has 9.6 million square kilometers of territory and 4.7 million square kilometers of sea area, which is something that every Chinese understands, but this number is only an approximation, not a granular number. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, when measuring the land area of our country, the data is not accurate due to the limitations of measurement tools and methods, and other countries will have this problem to a greater or lesser extent.
