Politics of Changsha (original) (raw)

The Politics of Changsha in Hunan province in the People's Republic of China is structured in a dual party-government system like all other governing institutions in mainland China. Changsha Municipal Government today is deeply influenced by its long past. Changsha's political system reflects the two major influences on the historical development of China: on the one hand, its legacy as an over 2,000 years feudal system region, and on the other, the powerful influence exerted by China's neighbor to the north, the Soviet Union.
