The World Expo is a masterpiece of human civilization, so it has unparalleled attraction and makes people feel excited. This kind of party can be traced back to ancient times. As early as the 5th century A.D., Persia held its first exhibition beyond the market function. At the end of the eighteenth century, people gradually thought of holding exhibitions similar to expositions, but they only exhibited and did not sell them. The modern world Expo originated in the middle of the19th century, when the industrial revolution was in its infancy. Up to now, the World Expo has been held for more than 40 times, and it has mainly experienced four stages of development.

[Edit this paragraph] The history and origin of the World Expo

◆ The origin of the World Expo

In ancient farming society, people often carried out trading activities in festivals, religious ceremonies and celebrations to celebrate the harvest, and later gradually developed into large-scale trade and exhibition gatherings with fixed places for the purpose of exchanging goods. This is the earliest form of the World Expo.

In the 5th century A.D., Persia held its first exhibition beyond the market function.

/kloc-in the 0/8th century, with the continuous emergence of new technologies and products, people gradually thought of holding an exhibition similar to the market, but only for exhibition and not for sale, with the purpose of publicizing and displaying new products and achievements.

179 1 year, the Czech Republic held such an exhibition in Prague for the first time. With the progress of science and technology and the development of social productive forces, the scale of the exhibition has gradually expanded, and the geographical scope of the exhibition has expanded from one place to the whole country, from home to abroad, until it has developed into a world exposition with the participation of many countries.

◆ History of the World Expo

185 1 year, the world's first world exposition-great exhibition of the works of industry of all nations was held in Hyde Park, London, England. The exhibition lasts from May 185 1 to October 1, and the main contents are world culture and industrial technology.

After World War II, people all over the world rebuilt their homes on the ruined ruins, and on the basis of resuming production and economic recovery, the first post-war World Expo was held in Brussels, Belgium on 1958, with the theme of "Science, Civilization and Humanity". In order to embody the theme of science, the Brussels World Expo has built a spherical exhibition hall with atomic energy structure, which represents the symbol of mankind entering the new century of scientific and technological progress. Its unique and novel shape, although nearly half a century later, is still vivid. The splendor and richness of the World Expo almost eclipsed previous World Expos.

1962, Seattle, USA held a small-scale professional exposition on "Humans in the Space Age". The Expo exhibited brand-new advanced technology, vending machines and monorail, which was a great success.

1964, in order to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the founding of new york, another World Expo was held in new york, although the theme was elegant "Towards peace through understanding". However, the strong commercial atmosphere of the Expo stopped the audience and lost the significance of commemorative activities. The World Expo was first held in Osaka, Japan in 1970. The Japanese call it the World Expo, which embodies "the progress and harmony of mankind" and shows the audience Japan's development and achievements in various aspects after the Tokyo Olympic Games. Thanks to this Expo, Japan will maintain a strong momentum in its economic development in the next 10 year.

1985, the World Expo was held again in Tsukuba, a new scientific and cultural city more than 50 kilometers away from Tokyo. The theme of the Expo is "life and environment, human home technology".

1988 is the 200th anniversary of British settlement in Australia. In order to remember this day, Australia hosted the World Expo in Brisbane, the eastern gold coast city. The theme of this Expo is "Leisure Life in the Age of Science and Technology".

1990, Osaka, Japan held the International Flower and Green Expo with the theme of "Man and Nature". The theme of the exhibition is world horticulture, as a commemorative activity to celebrate Osaka's "New Beginnings"100th anniversary. There are 82 countries participating in this exhibition, and 55 international organizations and Japanese provinces, cities and large enterprises have set up exhibition halls or booths respectively. It has achieved hundreds of large-scale world horticultural expositions in Asia and achieved great success.

1992 is the 500th anniversary of Columbus' discovery of America. For this reason, the Spanish government held the World Expo in Seville, and named the theme of previous World Expo logos as "Discovery Age". The World Expo covers an area of 4.78 million square meters, with more than 65,438+000 countries participating. The audience reached more than 60 million people.

◆ The first World Expo

1 851may1day, the world's first exposition was held in Britain.

Britain, which has completed the industrial revolution, is already a world-class power. No one doubts Britain's strength. Because of its great call, Britain hosted the first World Expo. Queen Victoria sent a diplomatic invitation, and 10 countries accepted it. Serious and rigid Britons use the country's economic strength to arrange exhibitions for the next World Expo. Victorian architecture has a heavy style, mostly huge stone buildings. In this World Expo, the British changed their old style and built a crystal palace with steel and glass as the main building materials in the famous Hyde Company. The Crystal Palace is 65,438+0,700 feet high and 65,438+0,000 feet high. It consumes 4500 tons of steel and 10 hectare of glass.

The first World Expo opened in a warm atmosphere. In the exhibition area covering an area of 96,000 square meters, the total length of the exhibition table is about13km. During the 23-week exhibition, 6.3 million people visited it. 65,438+04,000 exhibits include a 24-ton coal lump, a coal lump from Jin Gangzuan and a specimen elephant, while engines, hydraulic presses and textile machinery show visitors the development of modern industry and the infinite imagination of human beings.

This World Expo is not only a "dazzling and colorful" display, but also a pioneer of free trade in the next few decades, which indicates the arrival of the era of industrialized production to mankind. All the exhibits represent the development of modern industry and the infinite imagination of human beings. Therefore, the London World Expo is recognized as the first modern World Expo. Crystal Palace Expo has become a great driving force for scientific progress in the 20th century. Its success makes the future World Expo as grand as the Olympic Games on a global scale, so the World Expo is known as "the Olympic Games of economy, science and technology and culture".

For the first time, the China government sent its own representative to participate in the World Expo as a country. It was the Philadelphia World Expo in 1876. At that time, the representative of China's industry and commerce was Gui Li. He is a wise, brave, resourceful and courageous China man, but he was overwhelmed by that era. Gui Li wrote a book called "A New Record of Traveling Around the World", which recorded the 1876 Philadelphia World Expo. Although he is the only China person in the China delegation, it is the first time that China people have officially set foot on the World Expo.

◆ All previous World Expositions that New China has participated in.

Since 1982, the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade has organized the China Pavilion to participate in the World Expo nine times in the name of the country, entrusted by the government of China. Namely:
