What is the proportion of Han population in China?

The population of Han nationality is 65.438+0.225 billion, accounting for 965.438+0.55438+0%; The population of ethnic minorities 1. 1.38 billion, accounting for 8.49%.

In May 1, 202 1 1, Zhe, director of the National Bureau of Statistics, reported that the Han population in China was 12863 10000, an increase of 4.93% over 20 10.

The population of Han nationality was about 2 million at first when it originated from China, and it had exceeded 20 million at the peak of the Warring States Period. It reached more than 50 million in the Han Dynasty. It reached 890 million in the early Tang Dynasty and 1044 10000 in the Daguan period of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Population characteristics of Han nationality

The characteristics of the Han nationality distribution area were gradually formed in the process of the formation, development and establishment of a unified multi-ethnic China. ?

On several occasions in history, the Han population moved from the Yellow River basin, north of Huaihe River and south of Qinling Mountain to the south of Yangtze River and Pearl River basin. When Qin unified the six countries, a large number of Kanto nobles moved to Guanzhong, and similar immigration activities occurred in the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-8 AD). However, the economic development at that time determined that the counties in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River were the most densely populated areas in China.

For example, if a county is divided into two parts, the northern part accounts for about 80% of the total registered population at that time, and the southern part accounts for about 20%.

From the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 25-220), people began to move south. By the end of the Western Jin Dynasty (AD 265-3 16), people from the Yellow River basin moved south to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the upper and middle reaches of the Yangtze River and the Hanshui River basin on a large scale. After the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the population continued to move south, which made the population of the Yangtze River basin increase continuously, but it still did not change the situation that the population distribution in the north was more than that in the south.

However, if the total population of southern counties in the late Sui Dynasty is compared with that in the Western Jin Dynasty, the population of the Yangtze River basin and Lingnan area has more than doubled. In the south, non-Han people account for the vast majority. Judging from the historical changes of the nation, except for a few Baiyue descendants who "fled the valley" and evolved the minority culture since the Tang and Song Dynasties, the vast majority of Baiyue people merged into the local Han nationality in the process of long-term comprehensive sinicization.
