<ul>
<font face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica"><font size=+1>Notes:</font>
<br><br><font size=-1>
<li>There are many variations in the English spelling of Chinese place names found in atlases, history books, and other reference books.  The most common spellings are listed.<br><br>
<li>In English, the city or town precedes the state or territory.  In Chinese, the province or region precedes the city or town.  This applies to normal usage and to the method for addressing envelopes.  <br><br>

<li>Beijing is the capital of China.<br><br>


<li>Beijing, Tianjin, Chongqing, and Shanghai, like Washington, D.C., report directly to the central government rather than to a provincial government.  The land areas of each include not only the city itself, but several rural and suburban counties.<br><br>
<li>Hong Kong and Macao have special forms of government to suit their historical development.<br><br>

<li>The nicknames or abbreviations are used on license plates to indicate the province or region or may be used in adjectives to talk about the style of food or culture, but are not normally used in conversation.  Names are shortened when the reference is clearly understood.  Xinjiang Weiwu'erzu Zizhiqu, Wulumuqi would normally be said as Xinjiang, Wulumuqi, or just Wulumuqi since everyone (in China) would know where it is.
