The history of the Russia-China border reveals its critical geopolitical significance, serving as a meeting point for diverse civilizations and imperial interests. From the late nineteenth century to the Soviet Union's collapse, the region transformed dramatically, with intertwined cultures giving way to strict regulations and nationalist policies. The author utilizes extensive research and local narratives to highlight the impact of the border on communities and the ongoing cultural divide that persists even after the border reopened post-Soviet Union.
