@Yanni47 Many provinces are named after their relation to nearby rivers, lakes, mountains, or seas.

Please can you add 'Dongbei' as a common name for the north-eastern provinces. That's the common name used in China

Probably should take off the type-in "Canton" for Guangzhou because that gets filled in automatically if you answer Cantonese for the other question.

I suggest changing 'was the former English-language spelling' to 'is', because it is still a former spelling.

For a Frenchman, the only really difficult thing here is to guess (for one long minute !) how you could possibly spell "Uyghur" in English! ;-)
