Description |
Map of Yunnan (1911) Although richly endowed with natural resources, Yunnan remained an underdeveloped region until relatively recent times; for centuries the ethnic, religious, and political separatism of the province posed obstacles to the efforts of a central government to control it. Although much of the province is still fairly underdeveloped and isolated, its economic, political, and cultural integration into the whole of China is essentially complete. Area 168,400 square miles (436,200 square km). Pop. (2010) 45,966,239. |
