China is a very big country, with a lot of people… and panda bears.

There are currently over 1 billion people living in china, with the population increasing by 12-13 million people each year. (More information) The People’s Republic of China, in efforts to slow the growth rate, imposed the One-Child Policy. There is much controversy about the policy because it is Chinese custom to favor having a baby boy, resulting in the rate of female births to decrease. Human rights are also viewed differently in China then in the United States. In China the rights of the community are valued over the rights of an individual. This view comes from the convergence of many different religions, but primarily Taoism. China also censors all of what is published, read, or seen in the internet.

This diagram on Internet censorship is very helpful, Blythe.
