Qin and Han immigrants

Han people (short for Han people) generally refer to Han people.

The Han nationality is the main ethnic group in China, a descendant of the ancient Huangdi and Yan Di tribes, and a descendant of the Chinese nation. "Han" originally refers to Tianhe and Yinhe. The Book of Songs says: "Where there is Han, there is light in prison." Han people are used to calling themselves Han people, because the Han Dynasty in China used to be called "Huaxia" or "Zhu Xia".

Qin people are a branch of Han people who moved westward. The ancestor of the Qin Dynasty was the sage Boyi, who was a descendant of Zhuan Xu. He was originally an ancient tribal leader, and Shun Di gave him the surname "Won". At the end of the summer, Chang Fei (the great-grandson of Ruomu, the second son of Boyi) went to Shang Dynasty in the summer and conquered Shang Tang, and was defeated by Mingtiao. Later, from generation to generation, Yin Shang was assisted by Won surname, so there were many Won surnames in history.

The Han Dynasty and the Roman Empire in Europe at the same time were juxtaposed as the most advanced civilization and powerful empire in the world at that time. So after the Han Dynasty, Han people were called Han people.

Although the most commonly used title before the twentieth century was "Huaxia people". For example, in the Han Dynasty, many people called themselves "China people". In the Ming Dynasty, both Han and Huaxia were regarded as synonyms. However, as a whole, the Han nationality and Huaxia nationality have been the most common since the Han Dynasty.

The word "China people" came into being when ancient Han Chinese immigrated overseas and claimed to be from China. With the development of Chinese civilization, the word "China people" has spread all over the country, and the concept of "China people" has gradually expanded from the Han nationality in China to the ethnic minorities influenced by Chinese civilization, becoming synonymous with the whole Chinese nation.

Therefore, Chinese is synonymous with all people in China, including the Han nationality, while the Han nationality (Han nationality) cannot be synonymous with all people in China.
