Located in the central part of Henan Province, Xinzheng is a county-level city under the administration of Zhengzhou Municipality, and is one of the important birthplaces of Chinese civilization. It is known as the "hometown of the Yellow Emperor", and according to legend, the Yellow Emperor built his capital here, with 8000 years of civilization and 5000 years of city building history, and prehistoric cultural sites such as Pei Ligang Culture, Yangshao Culture, Longshan Culture, and so on, are dotted all over. As the capitals of Zheng and Korea during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, Xinzheng preserves the ruins of the Zheng and Han Imperial City, and the remains of the city walls, palaces, and tombs bear witness to the splendor of the ancient capital. Nowadays, Xinzheng not only continues its profound historical lineage, but also develops modern industries such as aviation logistics and biomedicine by relying on the location advantage of Zhengzhou Comprehensive Experimental Zone of Air Port Economy, becoming a famous city in the middle of Henan with both historical heritage and vitality. Every year on the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar, the Huangdi Ancestor Worship Ceremony attracts Chinese people from all over the world to search for their roots and ask about their ancestors, which highlights its unique status as the "Ancestral Land of Chinese People".
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.
