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.
Qingyun County is located in the northwestern part of Shandong Province, China, under Dezhou City, and is situated at the junction of Shandong and Hebei Provinces, making it an important transportation node and trade center in the northern part of Shandong Province. With an area of 502 square kilometers and a population of about 300,000, the county has a long history and deep cultural heritage, with humanistic landscapes such as the Jinshan Temple on the Sea Island, an ancient temple of the Tang Dynasty, and the Qingyun Palace.
As a modern agricultural demonstration area, Qingyun is known for green fruit and vegetable cultivation and agricultural product processing, while actively developing new energy and high-end equipment manufacturing industries. In recent years, relying on the ecological resources of the Mahe River, it has created wetland parks and ecotourism belts, forming a new model for the integration and development of the county's economy with "culture, tourism and ecology", which has earned it the reputation of being the "Pearl of North Shandong".
