Not to be confused with Q148, which deals with a similar topic (political entity/sovereign state, as opposed to the generic cultural country). Some Wikipedias separate the sovereign state from the cultural country (e.g. ko:중화인민공화국/ko:중국), others don't (e.g. en:China). Benlisquare (talk) 13:52, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I added the precision in the title for disambiguation because many places/cities used Q29520 instead of Q148 as the country. It's a common practice in some situations to disambiguate like this. @Infovarius reverted the change so I hope he and other people will check that Q29520 is never used in place of Q148.
For people who want to check every items here, good luck, you can run:
SELECT DISTINCT ?city ?cityLabel
    WHERE
    {
      {?city wdt:P17 wd:Q29520}
      SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en" . }
    }
Try it!
