China’s government provides heat to the country based on the Yangtze River . . . if you are north of the river, you receive heat and if you are south of the river, you do not! It’s not based on actual temperature, but on mere location.
Loosely phrased, the country is split into “northern” and “southern” China.

This has an interesting slide show on China and includes references to books, etc. It uses the terminology “north and south China” in reference to the Yangtze River.
Good luck!
