The Century China,[3] whose domain name was www.cc.org.cn,[4] was a Mainland China-based liberal intellectual website[5] founded on July 19, 2000, focusing on humanistic thought and social sciences.[6]

Century China was once the most influential intellectual website in China.[7] It was organized by the Beijing Zhongqing Future Community Culture Development Research Institute[8] and co-organized by the Institute of Chinese Culture of the Chinese University of Hong Kong.[9]

Century China had the mission of "building a rational and open public space for speech",[10] and its central doctrine was to be "free, independent, democratic, tolerant and rational".[11]
