What's the difference between nomadic people and farming people? Tracing back to the source is a group!

What is the difference between nomadic people and farming people brought by easy search in schools today? I hope I can help you.

There have never been nomadic or farming peoples. It is even more wrong to define civilization by a certain mode of production.

Western historians call slash-and-burn farming primitive agriculture and grazing primitive animal husbandry, which separates animal husbandry from gathering, fishing and hunting.

Therefore, those engaged in fishing and hunting are called fishing and hunting countries, those engaged in farming and planting are called farming countries, and those engaged in stocking livestock are called nomads.

With the development of the times, countries with developed commerce are also called commercial countries, and countries with developed maritime trade are also called maritime countries. In modern times, it has too much space to explore, and another country has come.

Then civilization is defined as a certain mode of production, which is divided into farming civilization, nomadic civilization, fishing and hunting civilization, commercial civilization, continental civilization, marine civilization and Thai-air civilization.

The division between civilization and country by western historians is wrong and meaningless.

First of all, primitive agriculture includes three aspects: hunting, slash and burn, and stocking livestock, which cannot support the survival of human beings in the fixed-point migration stage.

The era of forest migration is an era when human beings collect, fish and hunt according to the growth habits of animals and plants. It can be divided into hunting migration stage, seasonal migration stage and fixed migration stage.

Fixed-point migration stage, that is, in the process of migrating with the seasonal changes of animals, after gradually understanding the growth habits of different animals and plants, human beings no longer follow the seasonal migration of animals, but migrate at fixed points between different terrains.

Because of the different terrain, the growth and prosperity of animals and plants have their own characteristics, and the collection of catches, hunting or planting livestock will all produce characteristic development.

For example, grasslands, whether vast grasslands or small pastures in forests, can stock livestock; Rivers, big or small, can catch fish. Riverside, whether it is valley, plain, basin or swamp shoal, may be cut and burned; Mountain forests, whether hills or plateaus, can gather for hunting.

In any region, the growth and prosperity of animals and plants will change with the seasons. But no matter from the social productivity or food preservation technology of this era, a certain mode of production in a region can not provide food for human tribes for a whole year.

Therefore, human tribes set up bases in different terrain centers and migration points in different terrain. With the change of seasons, people move back and forth between base areas and migration areas, and carry out different production operations such as slash and burn, fishing and hunting, and stocking livestock. In order to get the food they need.

However, the base area is not a city, and the residential area is not a village. Because in a certain season of the year, only a large number of people will gather in the base areas and migration places. When the season changes, people will go to empty buildings again. Tribes do not settle down, but constantly flow between base areas and settlements.

Therefore, from the beginning of primitive society, there was no nomadic, farming, nor separation of gathering, fishing and hunting. Humans can't live only by a certain mode of production, even if a certain mode of production provides the main source of food. Nomadic people or farming people are impossible.

Second, in the era of river settlement, the so-called nomadic people are tribes outside the basin. They can't rise to civilization and are still in the stage of fixed-point migration.

In the era of river settlement, that is, in the process of fixed-point migration, human beings gradually realized the land attributes of different migration points, thus establishing water conservancy facilities in the original river basin where rivers flooded, and moving all the production methods of migration points with different topography to places with water conservancy facilities, so as to settle down and stop moving.

Because of this, slash-and-burn agriculture has become agriculture and irrigation, grazing animal husbandry has become captive animal husbandry, and the original fishing and hunting collection has become an encouraging fishing and hunting collection. The so-called encouragement of fishing and hunting that still exists in modern society,

Because in this era, the tools used by human beings are wood and stone tools, the construction of water conservancy facilities can only be carried out in large river basins with fertile land and easy cultivation.

As a result, the tribes in the big river basin have established their own countries and developed their own civilizations, while the tribes in other regions are still in the development stage of fixed-point immigration. Whether it is the so-called nomadic people or the fishing and hunting people, their tribes are in the stage of fixed-point migration, and their production and lifestyle are also fixed-point migration.

Thirdly, due to the arrival of the era of mainland expansion, the so-called nomadic peoples such as Xiongnu, Xianbei, Rouran, Turkic, Uighur and Mongolia are very powerful. They are strong because of the power of China civilization.

In the era of mainland expansion, that is, in the process of transforming and utilizing the land in the river basin, human beings gradually realized the role of land, discovered the metal minerals in the land, and developed the metal smelting industry. From bronze to iron. With the appearance and popularization of iron, human society has the ability to develop land outside the basin.

The era of continental expansion can be divided into three stages: east-west expansion, north-south expansion and overseas expansion.

In the east-west expansion stage, in addition to the central plain composed of Haihe Plain, Huanghuai Plain and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, some small watersheds can be developed, such as Chengdu Plain, Hanjiang Plain, Poyang Lake Plain and Hanzhong Plain, all of which were developed during the Warring States Period. The Pearl River Basin Plain was developed in Qin and Han Dynasties. Xiongnu and Qin and Han dynasties appeared at the same time, because Xiongnu occupied the Yinshan Hetao area and Hexi Corridor, and the small plains there could also be developed.

In the stage of north-south expansion, Mongolian grassland, northeast, Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, southwest and south hilly areas can also be developed. Therefore, with the rise of Sui and Tang Dynasties, Goguryeo, Turkic, Tubo, Nanzhao and other countries have risen one after another, and the economic focus will also shift to Yanji and Jiangnan. Therefore, Yang Di built the Sui and Tang Grand Canal to connect these two areas. Turkic, Khitan, Jurchen, Mongolian, these ethnic minorities do not rely on nomadic life, they are all ethnic groups that can gather energy and strike while the iron is hot. Nomadic economy is only a part of the whole economy.

In the stage of overseas expansion, the center of China civilization shifted from Luoyang and Chang 'an in Henan to Beijing and Nanjing in southern Hebei. China's border areas have been developed on a larger scale. The ethnic minorities occupying the center of Beijing civilization established Liao, Jin, Yuan and Qing Dynasties. Because the Beijing Civilization Center was stronger than the Nanjing Civilization Center, the Ming Dynasty rose in Nanjing, but it wanted to move its capital to Beijing.

Conclusion: After the decline of modern China civilization, these so-called nomads became silent. Therefore, nomadic people exist and nomadic people do not exist; Farmers exist, but agricultural countries do not exist.

When Chinese civilization is strong, people living on the map of Chinese civilization will also be strong, so western Renye Fang is afraid. When Chinese civilization is weak, not only can we not make the Western Expedition, but all nations that have already made the Western Expedition will return to the East to seek the protection of the motherland. For example, the Turkmen tribe in Mongolia was hunted by Russia and returned to the motherland after life and death.
