Comparison between north and south areas

According to China's natural zoning (planning of Xi Fancheng), China is divided into three natural zones: eastern monsoon climate zone, northwest arid zone and Qinghai-Tibet alpine zone. I think the southern and northern regions you mentioned here belong to the eastern monsoon climate zone. In the eastern monsoon climate zone, the Qinling-Huaihe line is the dividing line between the southern region and the northern region, the northern region is north of the Qinling-Huaihe River, and the southern region is south of the Qinling-Huaihe River. The dividing line between the northern region and the northwest region is: along the Daxinganling south to Yanshan region, and then to the Great Wall site in the west to the eastern foot of Qilian Mountain, which is basically consistent with the 400 mm isoprecipitation line; The dividing line between the southern region and the Qinghai-Tibet region is Minshan, Daxue Mountain, Qionglai Mountain and Hengduan Mountain. In order to fully understand the southern and northern regions, we must make clear the geographical meaning of Qinling-Huaihe line, which is a very important geographical dividing line.

The Qinling Mountains, which straddle the central part of China, have a great difference in climate between the north and the south due to its huge barrier function, thus forming the dividing line between the north and the south of China. Its concrete manifestation is that most of the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains in the eastern monsoon climate zone of China has a temperate monsoon climate, while most of the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains has a subtropical monsoon climate. At the same time, Qinling Mountain is also the place where the isothermal line of zero degrees Celsius passes in January and the 800mm precipitation passes. This also determines that it has become the dividing line between subtropical zone and warm temperate zone in China's temperature zone, and the dividing line between young and middle-aged humid zone and semi-humid zone in dry and wet zone.

Due to the great influence of Qinling Mountains on climate, rivers in the north and south of Qinling Mountains in China show different hydrological characteristics. The rivers south of Qinling Mountains have no freezing period, and are rich in water and low in sediment concentration. However, the rivers in the north have a freezing period in winter, and the longer the freezing period goes to the north, the greater the sediment concentration in the river and the smaller the water volume.

The obviously different climate makes the natural landscape between the north and the south of Qinling Mountains very different. There are warm temperate deciduous broad-leaved forest and forest grassland-brown soil belt on the northern slope of Qinling Mountains and the Guanzhong Plain to its north, and mixed forest of deciduous broad-leaved forest and evergreen broad-leaved forest-yellow brown soil and yellow cinnamon soil belt on the southern slope of Qinling Mountains and the Hanjiang River basin to its south.

Due to the differences in geographical location, climate, soil and plants between the north and south of Qinling Mountains, there are obvious differences in agricultural production.

South of the Qinling Mountains, the average temperature in January is above zero degrees Celsius, and the annual precipitation exceeds 800 mm, which belongs to the subtropical humid area and crops can grow all year round. Good hydrothermal conditions ensure the development of rice and rape, and vegetables can be cultivated in the open field in winter. It is the main producing area of rice, wheat and rape, and the cultivated land is mainly paddy fields, and rice and wheat are double-cropped to triple-cropped every year.

North of Qinling Mountains, the average temperature in January is below zero degrees Celsius, and the annual precipitation is less than 800 mm, which belongs to the warm temperate and semi-humid area. Due to the low temperature in winter, it provides conditions for winter wheat to overwinter. The growth and quality of winter wheat are better than those in the south of Qinling Mountains, and the high temperature in summer is suitable for planting cotton, corn and rice. Therefore, warm crops are the main crops, and cultivated land is mainly buried. The scenery in winter is generally monotonous.

Southerners and northerners have obvious psychological differences, and people in different regions also have different personalities, which is closely related to the environment. Most northerners are bold, enthusiastic and extroverted; Southerners, on the other hand, are more delicate, steady, introverted and calculating. The reason for this difference is not because of the difference in brain structure or genetic factors between southerners and northerners, but because of the different geographical environment of life.

In the north of China, there are fewer mountains and more plains. Looking around, you can see Fiona Fang for miles or even hundreds of miles. So northerners are more open-minded and generous. On the contrary, in the south, there are fewer plains than mountains and rivers, and the topography is blocked by mountains and rivers, which is quite broken. Only now the plains are criss-crossed, surrounded by mountains, and the vision is confined in a narrow space. Southerners plough intensively on palm-sized land. In order to survive, they have developed a cautious thinking habit and are good at using existing resources to exert their intelligence. In addition, the climate difference between the north and the south has caused the psychological difference between the north and the south. The climate in the south is mild and humid, and all kinds of flowers and plants compete with each other, making southerners calm, peaceful, emotional and delicate. The climate in the north is cold and dry, windy and dusty, with frost and snow in the past six months. Therefore, people who have lived in the north for a long time have formed a calm, childlike and virtuous character.

Some environmental meteorologists have also demonstrated the influence of geographical environment on psychology and personality from another logic. They think that because of the vast territory and sparse population, mountain residents have developed a character of loud voice, straightforward speaking and sincere treatment. Therefore, they have the saying that "people love mountains". The warm and humid coastal areas of rivers and lakes are full of vitality because of the humid climate and beautiful scenery. Therefore, the residents here are often sentimental and resourceful, so there is a saying that "love the water is wise". Due to the vast grassland and inconvenient transportation, the herdsmen living on the vast grassland of the factory are generous and hospitable. In cold areas, due to the lack of outdoor activities, people often get along with others in a narrow space, so they often have strong endurance and self-control. Eskimos living in the coldest place on earth have amazing control and are called "people who never get angry" in the world. On the contrary, people living in some parts of the tropical region often live and work outdoors in order to avoid the heat. Coupled with their backward culture and education, they are often bohemian and often fight for small things. It can be seen that the influence of geographical environment on people's psychology and personality is not a duck meeting-nonsense!

Racial division

From the appearance, you can clearly distinguish the difference between the two.

The northern Han nationality belongs to the Far East race, while the southern Han nationality belongs to the South Asian race.

The excessive race of the oriental race.

But on a larger scale, all ethnic groups in East Asia belong to Mongolian race.

, are all yellow. The yellow race in Asia can be roughly divided into northern Mongolia.

There are two kinds: ethnic and South Asian Mongolian. Moreover, the Far East race mentioned here is real.

The world is a mixture of the two.

However, the nationalities in the Far East also have some unique characteristics. If you are taller than both, your cheekbones

The bone is close to the eyes, the humerus is thick, the hair is thickest, straightest, hardest and so on.

Specifically, the northern Han nationality has the following characteristics:

1

Tall people in North China, Northwest China and Northeast China are generally 6- 10 cm taller than southerners.

It is the highest race in East Asia and the highest race except Patagonian Indians.

seven

The inner corner of the eye is low and the outer corner of the eye is high, that is, the eyes are tilted upward.

In the second stage, the coat (sexual hair) is less than that of southerners, which is different from our usual impression.

Same.

1 1

The head index is small, and the so-called head index is the ratio of the left and right width of the skull to the front and back length.

The northern head index is 794, which belongs to the middle head type and is similar to all ethnic groups in North Asia and Mongolian grassland.

Similar. Nantou index is above 80, similar to North Korea 8 1 and Japan 84, belonging to

Short head type.

12

Thin lips.

13

Skeleton outline is blurred.

Accordingly, southerners have the following characteristics:

1

Short stature.

2

The subcutaneous fat is very thin.

three

Dark complexion.

four

The nasal bone is low, the alar is developed, and the nasal index is large.

five

The cheekbones are low.

six

Rabbit lips, big eyes, double eyelids.

seven

The inner corner of the eye and the outer corner of the eye are on the same level.

eight

Only southerners "northerners" and a few people have Mongolian pleats.

nine

Narrow-faced bone

10

Sexual hair is more developed than that of northerners.

1 1

The head index is large.

12

Thin lips.

13

The skeleton has a clear outline.

But this is not absolute, there is a general trend. What's more, there are "northerners and southerners"

Hunan and Hakka "are certainly not included here.

The great difference between southerners and northerners is not only related to the climate, but also to the Han nationality.

About historical development.

On the land of China six thousand years ago, the race was very different from now.

1

In today's Hexi Corridor and the northern part of the Loess Plateau, there are Chinese-speaking tribes.

Race is close to the Far East.

2

There are Turkic-speaking ethnic groups living in Hetao area and the western part of Mongolian grassland, belonging to ethnic genera.

In North Asia, they created Ordos culture.

three

Mongolian people live in the eastern part of Mongolian grassland and Liaohe River basin, and they are also ethnic groups.

Near the Far East, they created Xiajiadian culture.

four

Tungusic (Manchu)-speaking peoples live in the northeast of China, and their races are close.

Far East people, they created Hongshan Culture.

five

The Tibetan-Burmese language family living in Qinghai and other places is the closest to Chinese tribes.

six

An ancient nation living in the middle reaches of the Yellow River is very developed in culture and language.

It belongs to Sino-Tibetan language family and is closer to Chinese. But it's a bit racist.

Characteristic of South Asian race.

seven

Malays live in the Yellow River, Huaihe River basin and the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and are ethnically southern.

The Han River valley is inhabited by Thai-speaking peoples, who are ethnically South Asians.

nine

South Asians live in the vast south, and their languages are not Cambodian.

Almost none of the language rivers and Meng languages outside the village have been handed down.

10

North Asians live in the north of Mongolian grassland and the south bank of Lake Baikal. Their language

Kamchatka has not been passed down except for the ancient Asian language family.
