The origin of the Han nationality?

The Han nationality, which originated from the ancient Huaxia tribe in northern China, began in the Han Dynasty and is the main ethnic group in contemporary China.

Han nationality is a foreign name for Huaxia nationality. Appellation began in the Han Dynasty and is still in use today. Han nationality is a long-term historical development. There have been many ethnic migrations and integrations in the history of China, which have made the Han nationality develop and prosper continuously and gradually become the most populous and economically and culturally developed nation in China. The Han nationality is the main ethnic group in several modern countries and the most populous ethnic group in the world, which is distributed all over China.

The Han nationality, that is, the Han nationality in a broad sense, originally referred to the Tianhe River and the Universe Galaxy. In the Book of Songs, it was said that "Wei Tian has Han". Chinese people are called "Han people", which began in the Han Dynasty. According to historical records, the Han nationality is an ancient Chinese tribe that originated in northern China, and it is the main ethnic group in contemporary China.

Historically, Xu Zhuoyun, an expert in China's ancient history, believed that the Huaxia tribe, which was located on the edge of the Central Plains after Yin, Shang, Zhou and Qin Dynasties, established the "China" headquarters on the basis of the summer, and formed a "cultural identity" calling itself the Han people in the Han Dynasty. Han people are also called Han people, Han people, Tang people, Qin people and Taohuashi.

Han nationality is the main ethnic group in several modern countries. It accounts for more than 90% of China population, 74% of Singaporean population and 24.5% of Malaysian population.

The descendants of the Chinese people were once used as pronouns or other titles of the Han nationality by the China Producer Party and the China Kuomintang.

If the population of Han nationality is counted from Xia nationality, it is about 2 million. After Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, it reached about 20 million in the Warring States period. When the Han Dynasty was formed, the population of the Han nationality had reached more than 50 million, between 80 million and 90 million in the early Tang Dynasty, and over 1044 1 10,000 in the Daguan period of the Northern Song Dynasty (Wang Yumin's Population History of China, Jiangsu People's Publishing House1kloc-0/).

The Chinese used by the Han people belongs to the Sino-Tibetan language family. After thousands of years of interactive evolution, modern Chinese is divided into nine dialects, namely, northern dialect, Wu dialect, Xiang dialect, Guangdong dialect, Min dialect, Gan dialect, Hakka dialect, Pinghua dialect and Jin dialect.

Traditionally, linguists believe that modern Chinese can be divided into seven dialects. In recent years, many scholars believe that Guangxi Pinghua and Shanxi Jin dialect should be juxtaposed with the other seven dialects. In addition, some scholars divide Fujian dialect into Minnan dialect and northern Fujian dialect. These dialects have their own distribution areas, and the interior of each dialect can be subdivided, thus forming a complex language state of Chinese dialects, and the north and the south are not connected with each other. Nevertheless, due to the high degree of unity of Chinese characters, it has a strong cohesive effect on the Han nationality. Therefore, it seems no exaggeration to say that there are Han people without Chinese characters.

The culture of Han nationality is rich and colorful. In the historical process of its formation and development, it is open and eclectic, forming regional cultures with different characteristics, such as Qilu, Zhongyuan, Zhao Yan, Guanzhong, Bashu, Jingchu, wuyue, Lingnan, Yunnan-Guizhou, Fujian-Taiwan, Songliao and Gan Hui, which embodies the diversity and diversity of Chinese culture.

Since ancient times, the Han people have adopted an inclusive attitude towards various religious beliefs. Fate worship and ancestor worship are the main traditional concepts of the Han nationality. Historically, some Han people believed in Taoism and Buddhism; Later, Catholicism and Christianity were introduced to China, and some people began to believe in these religions.
