São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
Xing'an League is located in the northeastern part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the southern foot of the Daxing'anling Mountains, and the border with Heilongjiang and Jilin, is an important node for the opening of the northeast to the west. The administrative office of the league is located in Ulanhot City, where the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Government was once established, and the red culture is profound. Grasslands and forests are intertwined in the territory, with natural wonders such as Aershan National Forest Park (volcanic landforms and hot springs) and Horqin Grassland (extensive wetlands in the southern part of the country), which is cool and pleasant in summer and is a summer resort. Mongolian culture is rich, with unique folk customs such as the Naadam Conference and the Long Tone Folk Song. The economy is based on ecological agriculture and animal husbandry (corn, soybeans, beef cattle) and tourism. Relying on green resources and location advantages, it is being built into an ecological barrier and tourist destination connecting Northeast China and Inner Mongolia.
