People's Republic of China - Nepal Relations (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The bilateral relations between the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal and the People's Republic of China have been friendly and defined by Nepal's policy of balancing the competing influence of China and Nepal's southern neighbour India, the only two neighbors of the Himalayan state.Nepal's historical relations with China (and Tibet) have been shaped by conflicts over territory and the control of Tibet. In 1792, Nepal was forced to sign a treaty stipulating the payment of tribute to China after the latter defeated Nepalese forces in Tibet.
