Tibet Autonomous Region

Asia, Eastern Asia, China,

Description

The Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) or Xizang Autonomous Region, called Tibet or Xizang for short, is a province-level autonomous region in Southwest China. It was overlayed on the traditional Tibetan regions of Ü-Tsang and Kham.
It was formally established in 1965 to replace the Tibet Area, an administrative division of the People's Republic of China (PRC), which took over from the Republic of China (ROC) about five years after the dismissal of the Kashag by the PRC after the 1959 Tibetan uprising and about 13 years after the annexation of Tibet by the People's Republic of China in 1951.
The current borders of the Tibet Autonomous Region were generally established in the 18th century and include about half of historic Tibet, or the ethno-cultural Tibet. The Tibet Autonomous Region is the second-largest province-level division of China by area, spanning over 1,200,000 km2 (460,000 sq mi), after Xinjiang and mostly due to its harsh and rugged terrain, is the least densely populated provincial-level division of the PRC.
