Features: The Yellow River, this ancient river, has made brilliant contributions to the Chinese nation. However, due to its natural conditions and historical social systems, it has become a turbid, flood-ravaged river, failing to achieve comprehensive comprehensive management in the long term. As a result, it has brought heavy disasters to the Chinese people. It was not until the founding of the People's Republic of China that the Yellow River entered a new era. Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the ethnic groups along the Yellow River have, through more than 30 years of arduous efforts, constructed reservoirs and embankments in the lower reaches, developed flood diversion areas, and preliminarily established a flood control system. Coupled with the strict defense of the military and civilians along the river, they have overcome the annual summer and autumn floods, changing the historical situation of frequent breaches and floods. This publishing house presents the book "Century Yellow River" to the readers, its significance lies in reviewing the past and looking forward to the future. We believe that in the new century, the Yellow River will, like our country and nation, flourish and surge forward, as always, blessing the people with its broad embrace.
