In this special issue, China Daily explains the Party's major features, through experts on its history and theory. It also lists quotes from Xi to illustrate these features.

We hope the issue helps you get more insight into the Party, its mission and philosophy, which are the lifeblood of the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative and many other initiatives.

After all, the histories of the nation and the Party are so intertwined that it is impossible to know China without understanding the Party.

The 100th anniversary is an appropriate time for the Party to reflect on its past and to look ahead to the future.

It is an equally important occasion for many in the world to understand the Party more. We hope our work here helps.
