Cape Verde–People's Republic of China relations refers to the current and historical relationship between the People's Republic of China and Cape Verde.  The two states established bilateral relations in April 1976, shortly after Cape Verde gained independence from the Portuguese Empire.  Cape Verde is an adherent to PR China's One China Policy.  China maintained relations with Cape Verde throughout from 1970s to mid-1990s mainly to prevent the Republic of China (Taiwan) from gaining Cape Verde's international recognition through checkbook diplomacy.  However, in the mid-1990s, a number of Chinese capitalists began investing in the island nation and relations grew during the 2000s as a result.

The concept of the Northern Cape as a distinct geo-political region of South Africa coalesced in the 1940s when a "Northern Cape and Adjoining Areas Regional Development Association" was formed and the first map featuring the name "Northern Cape" was published.  The geographic spread to which the term applied was not fixed until 1994, however, when it attained precise definition as the Northern Cape Province, one of South Africa's nine post-apartheid provinces.  Since then there have been boundary adjustments to include parts of the former Bophuthatswana (transferred from North West Province) adjacent to Kuruman and Hartswater.  Vryburg and Mafikeng, in the north eastern extremity of the former Cape Province - and hence regarded as part of the pre-1994 "Northern Cape" - are excluded, being part, now, of the North West Province. The Northern Cape (Afrikaans: "Noord-Kaap" ; Tswana: "Kapa Bokone" ) is the largest and most sparsely populated province of South Africa.  It was created in 1994 when the Cape Province was split up.  Its capital is Kimberley.  It includes the Kalahari Gemsbok National Park, part of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, an international park shared with Botswana.  It also includes the Augrabies Falls and the diamond mining regions in Kimberley and Alexander Bay.  The Namaqualand region in the west is famous for its Namaqualand daisies.  The southern towns of De Aar and Colesberg, in the Great Karoo, are major transport nodes between Johannesburg, Cape Town and Port Elizabeth.  In the northeast, Kuruman is known as a mission station and also for its artesian spring, the Eye of Kuruman.  The Orange River flows through the province, forming the borders with the Free State in the southeast and with Namibia to the northwest.  The river is also used to irrigate the many vineyards in the arid region near Upington.
