How to distinguish nationalities in China (division standard)

According to Stalin's definition of Marxism and ethnic issues, People's Republic of China (PRC) is officially divided into 56 ethnic groups, including the Han nationality and 55 ethnic minorities. When Stalin defined the nation, he summed up four characteristics of the nation, namely, the criteria for dividing it: * * the same language, * * * the same region, * * * the same economic life and * * * the same psychology.

Stalin believes that these four characteristics are shared by a nation, and any nation should have these four characteristics at the same time and be indispensable. Therefore, these four characteristics will always constitute a comprehensive whole, showing national characteristics. Stalin said: "A nation is a nation only if it has all the characteristics."

Besides the Han nationality, the main ethnic minorities are Zhuang (654.38+069.2 million), Hui (654.38+005.8 million), Manchu (654.38+003.8 million), Uygur (654.38+006 million), Miao (9.42 million) and Yi (87.7 million). Yao (2.76 million), Bai (1.93 million), Korean (2.33 million), Hani (1.66 million), Li (1.46 million), Kazak (1.

Other ethnic minorities may be called unidentified ethnic groups because they are too young, have a unique language but do not have their own characters, or are difficult to identify because they are assimilated by other ethnic groups. The population of this nation is 640,000.

China's Ethnic Policy

Entering the new century and looking forward to the future of the Chinese nation, the development of all ethnic groups in China will present new characteristics:

First, all ethnic groups will achieve faster development in the big family of the motherland. With the development of the times, ethnic minority areas will be further integrated into the national development tide, ethnic minority areas will be further opened to the outside world, and ethnic minorities will go to the market, the whole country and the world with a brand-new look. At the same time, with the continuous strengthening of comprehensive national strength, the state's investment and support for ethnic areas will continue to increase, which will further promote the development of ethnic areas and the common prosperity of all ethnic groups.

Second, the exchanges between various ethnic groups in China will increase day by day, and the phenomenon of mixed ethnic groups will become more common. With the increasing contacts and exchanges between ethnic groups, the floating population among ethnic groups will also increase, which will cause changes in the distribution characteristics of ethnic groups: first, the two-way flow of population, that is, the mainland population will flow to ethnic areas for work and business, and similarly, ethnic minorities in remote areas will also flow to the mainland, especially to developed coastal areas. The process of urbanization of minority population will be accelerated, which will make the minority population spread from the original residential areas to cities all over the country, and these minorities will still maintain their own national characteristics, traditional culture and living habits.

Third, the same-sex associations of all ethnic groups will increase day by day, but the national characteristics will exist for a long time. The socialist stage is a period of development and prosperity for all ethnic groups. The socialist ethnic relations of equality, unity and mutual assistance provide good conditions for mutual assistance and cooperation among ethnic groups. In the long-term life of * * *, in mutual learning and communication, there are more and more factors that all ethnic groups ask about * * *. In the socialist period, there are more and more homosexuals among ethnic groups, but they will not lose their national characteristics. When the exchanges between ethnic groups are expanding, all ethnic groups will continue to maintain their own national characteristics. National characteristics and differences will continue to exist. All ethnic groups have entered the new century with their own characteristics and the uniqueness of the Chinese nation.
