Is the Bai family in Shanxi powerful?

Awesome.

After thousands of years of expansion, the Bai family not only became a prominent family in Taiyuan, but also spread to most of the Central Plains in central, southwestern, and southeastern Shanxi. The surname Bai is one of the surnames of immigrants from Shanxi Province. Through the great immigrants from Hongdong in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, it has spread to most of China north of the Yangtze River.

The surname Bai first originated in Shaanxi and Henan. During the Warring States Period, the Bai surname (Bai Gongsheng branch) from Henan moved to Shaanxi and other places. According to records, Bai Gongsheng's son first moved to Qin and developed and multiplied in today's Shaanxi.
