Which nation is Xianbei in ancient times now?

Now, Xianbei ethnic group has merged with other ethnic groups and become another ancient ethnic group that disappeared on the road of ethnic integration. However, according to the ancient DNA laboratory of Jilin University (the key research base of humanities and social sciences of the Ministry of Education and the Frontier Archaeological Research Center of Jilin University), Professor Zhou Hui studied the ancient mitochondrial DNA of the remains of the ancients, which confirmed that the modern Xibe people were probably descendants of the ancient Tuoba Xianbei. The main reason for Xianbei's disappearance is population exhaustion. In general, the Sinicization policy of Xianbei ethnic group was not particularly successful. Some Xianbei ethnic groups were sinicized first and then Hu Hua. Extended information

Xianbei nationality is an ancient nomadic people who rose in the Mongolian Plateau after Xiongnu, belonging to Mongolian language family of Altai language family, and rose in Daxing 'anling. As a nomadic people who had the greatest influence on China in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, it originated from Donghu people and distributed in northern China. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Donghu was defeated by Xiongnu Modu Khan and divided into two parts. They surrendered to Wuhuan Mountain and Xianbei Mountain respectively, and both took the mountain name as the clan name, forming Wuhuan and Xianbei ethnic groups, which were enslaved by the Huns. Therefore, the customs and habits of Xianbei people are similar to those of Wuhuan and Xiongnu.

Xianbei invaded the border with Xiongnu in 45 AD, and Xianbei was known to the Central Plains Dynasty as a national entity. After the split of Xiongnu, Xianbei people gradually got rid of their control. In 1985 and 1987, Xianbei attacked Xiongnu twice to resist oppression. In 1991, the Northern Xiongnu, which was hit by the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Southern Xiongnu, was forced to move to Central Asia, and the Xianbei people took the opportunity to occupy the Mongolian grassland.

During the Sixteen Kingdoms period, Xianbei tribes took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to establish their own countries. In 385, Tuoba established the Northern Wei Dynasty and unified the North in 439. In 493, Tuoba Hong, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, moved to Luoyang, where he was heavily localized. In 534, the Northern Wei was divided into the Eastern Wei and the Western Wei. In 557, the Northern Zhou Dynasty replaced the Western Wei Dynasty. The Xianbei people established ten countries. In addition, in Qinghai and Gansu, there was a Tuguhun regime partially transformed from Xianbei Murong, which was not annexed by Tubo until 663.
