Formerly a province, Guangxi became an autonomous region in 1958. Guangxi's location, in mountainous terrain in the far south of china, has placed it on the frontier of Chinese civilization throughout much of china's history. The current name "Guang" means "expanse" and has been associated with the region since the creation of Guang Prefecture in AD 226. Schools in Guangxi |
