Located in the northern part of Jiangsu Province, China, Suyu is an important city area under Suqian City, which is located in the northern wing of the Yangtze River Delta Economic Circle. The region has a long history, with traces of human activities as early as the Neolithic Age. It is the hometown of Xiang Yu, the king of Western Chu, and boasts a rich cultural heritage, such as Xiang Wang's hometown and Qianlong's Palace, among other famous attractions.
In recent years, Suyu's economy has been developing rapidly, with manufacturing, modern agriculture and e-commerce as the pillar industries, and actively integrating into the overall development strategy of Jiangsu Province. The transportation is convenient, with the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and a number of highways running through the whole territory, connecting to the major cities around. Focusing on ecological construction, Suyu boasts several parks and green spaces with a pleasant environment, making it an important urban node in northern Jiangsu.
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.
