Three great migrations in the great migration

During the Qianlong period, the population of China exceeded 300 million. With the intensification of the contradiction between large population and small population, as well as natural disasters and social unrest, a large number of people began to migrate to remote areas and overseas. Going to the East, going west and going south to South Asia have become the three largest migration waves in modern times. Guandong refers to the area east of Shanhaiguan, also known as Guanwai. After the Qing army entered the customs, it blocked the northeast for a long time, forbidding Han people to enter, which dispersed the fertile northeast population and even formed a large number of no-man's land.

/kloc-in the 9th century, disasters occurred frequently in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and thousands of fleeing farmers ventured into the northeast to survive, which became the beginning of "crossing the Kanto". 1860, when Russia invaded northeast China, the Qing government was forced to ban land reclamation to strengthen its defense. Farmers from Hebei and Shandong flocked to the northeast of China to reclaim land. By A.D. 193 1 year, the number of people from Shandong who traveled to Kanto had reached more than100000. People mainly come from Hebei, Shaanxi and Shanxi, with Shanxi accounting for the highest proportion. Since the Qing Dynasty, barren land and natural disasters have caused thousands of poor people and businessmen in northern Shanxi to leave their homes. They either migrated to the west and entered Mongolia by killing the tiger's mouth, or went east and entered Mongolia by Datong and Zhangjiakou.

The voyage to the West directly led to the spread of Jin culture to the central and western regions of Inner Mongolia, making the local single nomadic culture a multicultural culture with both farming and farming. The history of China immigrants to Southeast Asia can be traced back to the Han Dynasty. From the Han Dynasty to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, whenever the old and new regimes changed, the people who could not bear the war and the declining dignitaries would emigrate. Southeast Asia has become the first choice for China immigrants to go abroad because of its convenience.

After the Opium War, modern China people went to Nanyang to change the fate of individuals or families. At that time, many countries in South Asia under British and Dutch colonial rule introduced many preferential policies to attract Chinese workers, such as giving immigrants free land, temporary accommodation, transportation and even free food. Many China people, especially those from southern China, are married with children or single, and come to South Asia with hopes and dreams.
