The Cultural Revolution era borders (1966-1976) are the same as modern day China borders. The modern day China borders are the dotted lines and the Qing dynasty borders is the orange-brown. The Qing dynasty was the dynasty previous to the Cultural Revolution. During the Qin dynasty, there was no Mongolia. China owned that land. Modern-day China is bordered on the north by Mongolia and on the west by many different countries. To the east is the East China Sea and south of China are many countries including India, Nepal, and Vietnam. Mt. Everest is on the border of China and Nepal.
