Fujian

"Fujian (en chino: , pinyin: Fújiàn, transcripción antigua: Fukien), provincia de la República Popular China. Su capital es Fuzhou. Ocupa un área de 120.000 kilómetros cuadrados y su población en 2003 era de casi 32 millones de habitantes. Está situada al norte de Cantón y al sur de Zhejiang, en las costas del mar de China, frente a la isla de Taiwán situada a 180 kilómetros de distancia. Una parte de la provincia, en concreto los archipiélagos de Quemoy y Matsu, está bajo la administración directa del gobierno de la República de China (en Taiwán)."

"Fujian (Chinese: ; pinyin: Fújiàn; pronounced [futin] ), formerly romanised as Foken, Fouken, Fukien, and Hokkien, is a province on the southeast coast of mainland China. Fujian is bordered by Zhejiang to the north, Jiangxi to the west, and Guangdong to the south. The name Fujian came from the combination of Fuzhou and Jianzhou (a former name for Jian'ou) two cities in Fujian, during the Tang dynasty. While its population is chiefly of Han origin, it is one of the most culturally and linguistically diverse provinces in China. Most of Fujian is administered by the People's Republic of China (PRC). However, the archipelagos of Kinmen and Matsu are under the control of the Republic of China (ROC). Thus, there are two provinces (in the sense of government organizations): the Fujian Province administered by the PRC and the Fujian Province of the ROC. Fujian Province, where most of the overseas Chinese in southeast Asia originated from, is still famously known as the Hokkien Province, based on the local pronunciation of the two Chinese characters ""."
