Where are the Hakkas from?

Hakka, a Han nationality whose mother tongue is Hakka, is one of the aborigines in Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangxi and Taiwan Province provinces in southern China.

In history, almost all ethnic groups have experienced the migration of past dynasties and developed to this day. Today, the aborigines in Beijing and Shanghai are mainly immigrants hundreds of years ago, especially in Guangdong, Fujian and Taiwan Province provinces. Therefore, in thousands of years of migration history, Hakkas, like other migrant groups, have become aborigines in many places.

Hakka is a branch of the Han nationality, with remarkable characteristics, and it is also one of the widely distributed and far-reaching nationalities in the world. Starting from the Yongjia Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty, Han residents in the Central Plains moved southward on a large scale, and arrived at the junction of Guangdong, Jiangxi and Fujian, where they mixed with local aborigines and intermarried with each other. After thousands of years of evolution, a relatively stable Hakka clan has finally formed.
