    Zhōnghuá Rénmín Gònghéguó (中華人民共和國) is the actual name of the country, why did you refer to it as China? “China” likely comes from poor translations of the Qin Dynasty.

    It’s been the CCP for years. Even in 2016, it was the CCP in the CCP’s own official translation of Xi Jinping’s speech. CCP can’t just rebrand because it got bad press and expect non-propagandized nations to go along with it.
