On May 23, 1951, the central people's government and the former local government of Tibet signed the Agreement on Measures for the Peaceful Liberation of Tibet, also known as the 17-Article Agreement, bringing about the peaceful liberation of Tibet.


The peaceful liberation enabled the Tibet autonomous region to cast off the yoke of imperialist aggression, safeguarded national sovereignty and territorial integrity and created the prerequisites for Tibet to join the other parts of the country in the drive for common progress and development. With the great reunification, the Chinese nation entered a new period of development.

Tibet has seen a jump in comprehensive strength and people's quality of life over the past six decades. The attractiveness, influence and competitiveness of Tibet have improved significantly. Tibet's development is a unique contribution to national unity, social stability, border security, cultural prosperity and ecological improvement.


With the abolition of the centuries-old serfdom and theocratic rule and the establishment of regional ethnic autonomy in Tibet, millions of serfs and slaves who did not have even a minimum of human rights have enjoyed equal political rights to participate in the administration of local and ethnic affairs. They have the institutional guarantee and the right to be their own masters. Today, people of all ethnic groups in Tibet enjoy full political, economic, cultural and other rights guaranteed by the Chinese Constitution and other laws of the country.


Through peaceful liberation, socialist transformation and reform and opening-up, Tibet has witnessed remarkable progress in economic and social development and a marked improvement in living standards of the Tibetan people.

One of the major concerns about the Qinghai-Tibet Railway when it was under construction was whether its operation would harm the environment along the tracks. "After three years of operations, this railway has proven to be as environmentally friendly as we promised," said Zhang Yongze, Director of the Environmental Protection Bureau of the Tibet Autonomous Region. A number of bridges totaling more than 150 km in length were built to protect the wetlands on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. To minimize damage to the wetlands, engineers created areas by the side of the railroad where they transplanted the turf dug up for construction.
