What kind of misleading info you are throwing here??? Do you understand that the modern China is a nation of 56 ethnicities with the Han Chinese as one among the 56 ethnic groups, it just happens that the Han Chinese has the overwhelming majority, about 90% of the population. Please do not post arbitrary info here if you have no idea about the nation concept of the modern China, i.e. the PRC. And this is not the right forum to delve into the Chinese long history, values & traditions, outlook and world views, nation-building & politics and so on... but if it's deviated too far then it stands to be corrected.
56 Ethnic Groups in China
The following Chinese ethnic groups are listed by their population (sorted from valueshigh to low):
I think it is you who miss understood my post here. I don't have any intention to say about modern China consist only Han ethnicity alone, and actually I don't care on how many ethnicity there in China. What my post said was about how people discredit China advancement just because there are some experts that's actually from Foreign Origin. Like those Vietnamese Carpenters who built Tian An Men in Ming Dynasty, A Korean General who lead Tang's army in a conquest to the west, etc; while actually their nationality / ethnicity were not matter. As they are all work for Chinese Empire / Government.
That's it.
Why do I care that PRC has 56 Ethnicity? Plus, all Chinese experts that I know (like Ma, etc), have Han name. So whatever they are Han or Ethnic minority, they have Han name.
