There are a group of "white people" at the southern foot of Mount Everest, all of whom are EULAN SPA01 with big eyes. Where did they come from?

Asians are the oldest race in the world. In the traditional sense, the Asian yellow race generally refers to China, Viet Nam, Thailand, Myanmar, Japan, South Korea and other countries in Central Asia and East Asia. South Asian countries such as India and Nepal are not Asian yellow people in the traditional sense. At the foot of the mountain south of Mount Everest, a group of "white people" lived there for generations. Their number is no more than 300, and they are very different from the yellow race in terms of facial features and skin color. But since 2003, these people have become real citizens of China. What's going on here?

At the foot of the south mountain of Mount Everest, there is a small town on the border between China and Nepal called Dammam Village. This village is small, with a total population of no more than 400. 80% of the residents in the village make a living by striking iron or repairing gold and silver wares. This group of people is called Dammam. Judging from the appearance of Daman people, their eyes are blue, big and deep, their noses are very high, and their skin color is fair and delicate. Even if you live at the foot of Mount Everest all the year round. Its skin color has not changed much. From the appearance alone, the skin color and facial features of Dammam people and China people are very different. After 2003, with the approval of the State Council, Dammam officially became a citizen of China.

Then this small village of 300 people was connected with water and electricity, built a primary school, and received the education of Chinese studies. Then, why did this group of Dammam people who looked like "foreigners" become citizens of China? According to legend, Dammam are descendants of Nepalese. During the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, Fu Kang 'an of Fu Cha led 65,438+10,000 soldiers to conquer Gurkha, and the ancestors of Dammam people were Gurkha cavalry. The battle ended in a great victory in the Qing Dynasty. About 65,438+000 Gurkha cavalry were homeless because their land was expropriated by the Qing government. /kloc-At the beginning of the 9th century, Nepal and the Qing government clashed one after another in the border areas of Tibet, causing many Nepalese troops to retreat one after another, and some residents and descendants of the former Gurkha cavalry stayed in the border areas of Tibet.

/kloc-At the beginning of the 9th century, British troops invaded Nepal, and some Nepalese fled to the Tibetan border. After wandering around, these people settled on the border between China and Nepal, which is the origin and simple development process of Dammam people. In 1960s, Dammam people asked for citizenship of China many times, but our country rejected Dammam people's kindness for many reasons. Since then, Nepal and India have shown Dammam many times, and the two governments are willing to give Dammam a household registration to solve the problems of schooling and employment for his children. In turn, Dammam rejected the kindness of India and Nepal. It was not until 2003, shortly after China joined the WTO, that UN human rights organizations visited China.

The purpose of the inspection by the United Nations human rights organizations is to properly solve the problems left over from history such as Dammam. Finally, around August 2003, through the mediation of the United Nations, the State Council applied for the naturalization of Dammam, who was classified as a part of Tibet in ethnic division. Since Dammam became a citizen of China, China established Dammam New Village in 2004, and invested about 2 million yuan to build local infrastructure. By 2006, Dammam New Village had a road leading to the national highway, and the descendants of Dammam people could go to school without paying tuition fees, and every household was assigned cultivated land. Daman people also enjoy the benefits brought by the state, and their quality of life is much better than before.

Daman people are now an inseparable part. In the 1960s, China was unwilling to accept Dammam people because Indian and Nepalese got in the way. Until 2003, when the conditions were ripe, with the "sword on the side" given by the United Nations human rights organization, it was logical to accept Dammam talents. After becoming citizens of China, all Dammam residents are very happy, because their lives have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Since 20 10, China has also given Dammam people about 6,000 yuan in annual minority subsidies and compensation for other grassland wildlife. Nowadays, the life of Dammam people is no different from that of other citizens in China. I also hope that Daman people can continue to live a peaceful life at the foot of Mount Everest.
