    Hi Bridget,

    Xi Jinping is a super important figure! Not only has he impacted the lives of his wife and daughter, he has also impacted all of China! Did you know that there are nearly 1.4 billion people living in China? I think that is pretty wild, my brain cannot even fathom that many people existing.

    It looks like he has held a lot of powerful positions, including his current Presidency. Can you imagine being the President of a Country? Could you do it? I don’t know if I could handle all that attention to be honest.

    Thanks for sharing this blog post Bridget, keep up the great mahi!

      Hi Beren, thanks for commenting on my blog!

      Before this activity I didn't know a lot about Xi Jinping. I didn't know there was 1.4 billion people living in China, I just knew there were lots of people living there. I agree it is pretty crazy that there is that many people living in one country.

      I don't think I would be able to handle the responsibilities of being President, espicialy a country as big as China. Again thanks for commenting on my blog!
