The Middle Kingdom was situated around the Nile from approximately 2040 to 1782 BC.

China is called The Middle Country, but it's definitely not a kingdom and has never been. China is also called Zhōnghuá (中華/中华, "central beauty"), Huáxià (華夏/华夏, "beautiful grandness"), Shénzhōu (神州, "divine state") and Jiǔzhōu (九州, "nine states").
