The PRC is a single-party state governed by the Communist Party, with its seat of government in the capital city of Beijing. It exercises jurisdiction over twenty-two provinces, five autonomous regions, four direct-controlled municipalities, such as Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Chongqing, and two mostly self-governing special administrative regions, such as Hong Kong and Macao.
China is estimated to have a population of 1411.96 million in the year 2023 and is expected to reach 1404.3 million by 2027, decreasing at a CAGR of 0.14%.
