China Traditional Calligraphy

Traditional Chinese characters, that is, the writing system of Chinese characters produced after the evolution of Xiao Zhuan into official script (followed by regular script, running script, cursive script, etc.). ), which has a history of more than 2000 years, has been a common Chinese writing standard for Chinese people all over the world until the 20th century. Since the 1950' s, the people of China and the government of China have simplified the traditional Chinese characters and formed a new Chinese writing standard, namely simplified Chinese. Simplified Chinese is mainly composed of inherited characters and simplified characters introduced by China people and China government after 1950. At present, simplified Chinese is mainly used in Chinese mainland and Southeast Asia (such as Malaysia and Singapore), while traditional Chinese is mainly used in Taiwan Province Province, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and Macao Special Administrative Region of China.
