Jiangdu, a municipal district of Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, is located in the northern wing of the Yangtze River Delta and the southern end of the Jianghuai Plain, and is known as the "Pearl of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River". As the core area of the main city of Yangzhou, Jiangdu has been a major land and waterway hub since ancient times, where the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the Yangtze River, the New Tongyang Canal and other waterways converge, giving rise to a profound canal culture. Historically, it was the "land of fish and rice", and in recent times, it has developed a strong industrial base, forming leading industries such as high-end equipment manufacturing, automobile parts, new materials, etc., and its total economic output has been ranked among the top 100 districts in the country for many years in a row. The Jiangdu Water Conservancy Hub Project in the district is an important node at the source of the national South-to-North Water Diversion East Route, which has multiple functions such as flood control, drainage, irrigation and shipping. Nowadays, Jiangdu is aiming at the construction of "strong, rich, beautiful and high" new Jiangdu, integrating ecological endowment and industrial vitality, and becoming a bright pearl in the northern wing of Yangtze River Delta.
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.
