Features: This book briefly describes the geography, history, and political situations of more than 30 countries in the five continents of the world. It is a relatively complete and systematic geographical treatise on the boundaries of modern China. Under the influence of Lin Zexu, a series of works on the history and geography of foreign countries were later produced. This book was indeed a pioneering effort to set a new trend; and the author Lin Zexu was also hailed by later generations as the first person to begin opening their eyes to the world.
