1.3 Billion: Breaking Down the Han Chinese Ethnicity
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 08. 2018
- There are roughly 1.3 billion Han Chinese in the world - 20% of the entire global population and the largest ethnic group in the world by far. In this video, we think about the early growth of this population -- what forces created this many people during the Ming and Qing dynasties -- as well as their genetic homogeneity.

The Han Chinese in indonesia is about 5.6% that is 14 million and Malaysia is about 24.5% of Malaysian are Han Chinese which is about 8 million.
21% in malaysia
I am a minority in the US. I would be one too in China. I am half Chinese, that is, 1/4 Hakka and 1/4 Cantonese, each has its own language.
Go to GuangDong and speak Cantonese. No one will think you are minority
Your are Han Chinese Hakka and Cantonese are Han
Hakka and Cantonese are both recognized as Han in China. So you’d be 100% Han Chinese.
@@megren1207 Thanks. I may be half Chinese, but I know nothing about Chinese.
basically all ethnic groups are minorities in China because even within same province dialects are different can not communicate between Cantonese Hakka chaozhou these three groups are living in Canton province
Southern Chinese are mixed with the Austronesians who originally inhabited Southern China, Northern Chinese are mixed with the steppe Turkic people who invaded and were invaded by the Chinese. The majority of these unions produced children that see themselves as "Chinese".
Both Northern and Southern Chinese are mixed with southern natives due to constant migration between north and south. The further south you go the higher the mix is. Southern Chinese also have very minor nomad’s mix.
I don't think you can call it was "mixed" when it was like 100 Austronesians (from the South) or 100 steppe Turkic (from the North) vs 10000 Han Chinese in the whole population.
How much did foreign populations actually contributed to the gene pool of modern Chinese? Because according to genetic studies, modern Chinese remains highly uniform in terms of paternal lineage.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 1/8, 1/10 maybe? Given how massive the population of the Han Chinese since ancient times. Just look at how many Mongols and Manchu actually left in China nowadays.
@@The_Art_of_AI_888 I think it's debatable. Chinese don't always have massive population, I think.
Finally, some video that accurately reflects that Chinese, even Han Chinese, is an ethnic group and not a race. Bravo!
What's the difference?
@@4KSnSLifestyle You don't know?
Wow... race = Mongoloid, Caucasian... which means, Han Chinese, Korean, Mongolian and Tibetans are of the same race. They are different ethnicity. Since when would Indian and Chinese belong to a race?
@@ociiu what kind of race do you call han, Korean, mongol and tibetan?
@@ociiu I'm staying in south east asia (Malaysia) and am an overseas chinese by ancestry both my parents. I wonder what the DNA test would show since my ancestors migrated here like 100 years ago. :)
@@leealex24 I live in the US and originally a Chinese Singaporean. Native Americans here are genetically similar to Chinese/Mongolian. Your IC in Malaysia/Singapore shows "race", that was put there by the British and since we have been using "race". That isn't correct. Chinese is an ethnicity, not a race. Genetically, Chinese are very similar to Japanese, Korean, Mongolians and Tibetans.
In America, everybody has to have a color. In China, ethnical identity is a marginal issue, I have Hui friends, Manchu friends, Yi friends, we just refer ourselves as Chinese, nothing special except minor cultural differences. The west promotes cultural pluralism, but never says a word about cultural assimilation, China is the other way around. We seek commonality and common grounds, put differences aside.
If you were in Urumqi on July 5th ten years ago, you would not say this.
Minorities add a lot of points to the college entrance examination
Many would disagree. Many minorities feel threatened and even hatred toward the Han majority. And elsewhere in Asia Han Chinese are viewed both with ill disguised contempt and fear. It is a huge, if understandable mistake, to think everyone loves you.
Runze I am Han Chinese live in NorthWest China, I want to say that you are stupid. Those minority ethnic are bad.
青空 agree, some of my family members leave xinjiang after that event, they are Han Chinese, me too. I never trust those minority ethnic. 我大姨奶，五几年西部大开发援疆去的，现在迁到成都，有些回东北了。
most of the Chinese and people of Chinese decent who live in Indonesian and Malaysian are Han Chinese
Same in Vietnam. Their ancestors mostly were Ming loyalists.
SO U TELLING ME IM HAN CHINESE YAY YEET.
A Big Lion 30%japanese have Han dna
@Soulwalker Young no lol..the native of vietnam is champa people (austronesia people) not han people..u guys really wanna erase their history huh? not to mention that dai viet only started to conquer champa kingdom in 1300-1400
@Soulwalker Young So then who built the Champa kingdom? And where did Cham people came from?
8:43 Maybe on a cultural level, but not *linguistically*, there are multiple languages spoken by this "homogenous population"
Especially in the south: Minnanese (Hokkien), Cantonese, Hakka, Gan (Jiangxi), Xiang (Hunanese)
F0RG1V3N can you understand mandarin? can you understand canto as well? what about minnanese? I can do mandarin and canto, but minnanese, gan, xiang, and hakka are completely unintelligable to me. I honestly cannot understand a word
Sure you can pick out words like me, you, but nothing more.
example
In mandarin, “go up” is “shang qu”
in minnanese it’s “diuw kee”
completely different
in mandarin, “is not” is “bu shi”
in canto it’s “mm haih”
see, these basic words are completely unintelligable among dialects, as i know from personal experience.
they are called dialects for a political reason, but in reality they are simply related languages with a unifying written script
Jim lastname Yeah manchu is completely different.
1) grammar; manchu has a sov sentence structure in contrast to chinese’s svo, it also employs tense in its verbs (by tacking on an ending), and even its nouns decline (kind of how they do in latin)
2) vocab; though i dont speak manchu, i know that manchu has quite a few chinese loanwords but the same with korean. however its words are not organized into syllable blocks like in chinese, but instead words are often multiple syllables,
e.g. oyonggo, meaning important
in chinese it’s zhong yao (literally: heavy want/need)
3) writing, manchu employs a modified version of the mongolian alphabet (modified to fit the needs of manchu phonetics), and is written vertically. chinese may be horizontal or vertical, and employs a logographic syllabic character system; completely different
F0RG1V3N the tibetans spoke a different branch of the sinotibetan language family, so the difference between any regional southern hills language and mandarin chinese would not be as great as with tibetan
Jim lastname yes u would require an interpreter.
but the difference between canto and manchu would be different from german and danish. Both german and danish are germanic languages, so they would have a similar vocabulary base. canto and manchu are from different language families and would have completely different vocabularies and grammars
Jim lastname basically no intelligibility from personal experience, similar to me, an english speaker, trying to understand dutch or german (another germanic language)
This is one Chinese subgroup that fascinates me is Sichuanese people because they look more like the ethnic minorities of the that Provence then other Han Chinese and they also dress like them even their culture
Sichuanese Han Chinese in the western margin bordering Kangba, or Kham Tibet, are a mix of local ancient Shu descendants and Han Chinese migrants. The dialect remained some loan words from ancient Shu language.
@@benliu9956 thank you for telling me this I've been waiting for someone to tell me more about them cuz I really can't find much about them
@@IAmGlutton4Life It's only in the western mountainous region. A big ethnic minority group is the Yi people, their language belongs to Tibeto-Burman languages (rather than Sinitic languages). I don't think Han Chinese in Sichuan will dress like other ethnic minorities, but they do appreciate ethnic minorities' culture more than Han Chinese from eastern Provinces. Most of the Han Chinese we see in Sichuan nowadays are migrants from Hunan/Hubei or other Han Chinese dominant regions, because there were two major massacres against local Han Chinese happened in Sichuan historically due to fall of dynasty or foreign invasion. In Sichuan, you get to see many Tibetan songs (in Chinese) sung by local aunties for leisure in the park, as well as other ethnic minorities adopting Sichuanese cuisine for their food culture etc.
There's little about local culture of any Chinese regions, not only Sichuan. It would be much easier if one could understand Chinese, these information rarely got translated into other languages.
@@benliu9956 There are immigrations occuring between regions in China, that's why Han from different regions are almost indistinguishable except for Fujian and Guangdong etc. It's also notable that Hakka, Min and Yue are the most distinct linguistic branches of Han, the rest of Chinese varieties are almost the same as Mandarin. But the most distinct Han subgroups are those in Guangxi, Hainan and Guangdong, they've significant Native admixture, therefore they look quite distinct from the rest of Han people -- especially Han ethnolinguistic groups such as Tanka and Pinghua who typically lack of Han ancestry.
@@benliu9956 Tibeto-Burman languages belong to the Sinitic language group.
Ancient Chinese = Han people 漢人.
Traditional Chinese culture = Han culture 漢文化.
(After 1949, people in China (including non -Han people) have given Chinese ID cards. However, the identity card is "ethnic groups". The Mongolian is called "Mongolian ethnic ". The Manchu people are called "Manchu ethnic". The Manchu people are almost mixed with the Han nationality. China now has 56 ethnic groups. Now the Han population accounts for 90%)
In ancient China. Non -Han and Mongolians and Mongolians were only 1% in China (99% han people). In history, they were not called the Chinese. They were called barbarians by the Han people.
It’s Mongol. Mongol is the ethnicity. Mongolian is the nationality.
@@tc2334 Most of the Inner Mongolia people are Han people.
> The Han people are 1893,5537, accounting for 78.74 %;
> The Mongolian people are 424,7815, accounting for 17.66%;
(Including the mixed race of the Han and the Mongolian , There are more mixed culture of Han and Mongolia)
> Other ethnic minorities are 86,5803, accounting for 3.60%.
These territories have been territories under the jurisdiction of Chinese politics and power since ancient times. China has tolerated other ethnic groups to live in Chinese territory. These are also clearly recorded in Chinese history.
In addition, in Xinqiang, Tibet, the main ethnic group of Inner Mongolia is Han people. There are also many different ethnic groups in these areas.

You forgot crops from the New World such as potatoes and peanuts also fueled China's population growth in the Qing Dynasty.
The biggest contribution to the population growth was the removal of the head tax in Qing dynasty.
And the burning of all books, traditions, culture, languages and ideologies in order to form only Han.
@@jovimathews Qin is not Qing. The burning books were from the six others states, who used the same language, and writing. Actually, Daoism, Confucianism and other culture materials that are core of Chinese culture was burnt. What you stated reflected how you are fed with.
@@guangyang547 : No way..... really ?? Were they all burned or just those 6 were burnt ?? Why were they burned??
@@MeiinUK The 7 states shared the same culture under the same Zhou dynasty (similar to warlords). If you read the story about Confucius, you will know no kings in those states showed interest to his theory during his trip to those states. No states showed interest to Daosim. Legalism was one of vital reasons for Qin to win. Daosim and Confucius were the governing theory used in early and later Han dynasty after Qin.
The people that are in Chinatown Philadelphia are mostly a mix of the minority ethnic groups from China is what I was told by different Asian Americans and they also told me, as a European American that a good percentage or a minority of the percentage of Asians in Chinatown, Philadelphia are southeast Asians from, Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia along with some from the Philippines as well. They tend to be somewhat darker in skin color then us white Americans or European Americans, whatever you want to call us, and shorter on average then us European Americans, and very noticeably shorter on average the older the population is with these Chinese and southeast Asians in Chinatown, Philadelphia. But when I am at an airport in the USA or at a very popular vacation destination in the USA, I see these tall light skin East Asians and find out that a majority of them are from China with them usually saying that they are from the northern regions of China like Shandong or elsewhere. These Chinese make us European Americans in my experience look short on average in height, and are usually as light in skin color as us European Americans. They are some much different then the Chinese in Chinatown, Philadelphia or the southeast Asians in Chinatown, Philadelphia in physical features.
I'm loving these videos... Can you do a video on the impact Han Chinese have had on Southeast Asia (eg Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand)? Culturally, economically and otherwise. I have heard that the Chinese had a huge impact on both Malaysian and Indonesian economies and that some of the richest people in those countries are Chinese.

Great video, one small correction: the former rulers of the Qing dynasty are the previously mentioned Manchu, not the Hui
@yo yo 95% of Taiwan is Han Chinese. I'm from Hong Kong and my Jia Xiang is in Chaozhou, with my origins further north in Zhejiang. Most of us 'southern chinese' are varied in every regard, but we mostly identify as Han Chinese, despite keeping our subgroups - cantonese, hakka, sichuanese, etc. The vast majority of Hongkongers are the descendants of Han Chinese immigrants from the mainland that came during the early 1900s, and they in turn may have come down from the north as a result of displacement during war. Just because we have a slightly distinct cultural identity compared to the north does not stop us from being Han.
@yo yo 98% of taiwanese are of han Chinese.
The remaining are native non han Austronesians.
@yo yo Han is not coincident with Mandarin speakers.
It's largely a semantic debate. A lot of the groups you mentioned would consider themselves southern Han. They're not the same people who founded the Yellow River civilization but had long ago adopted Hanzi and formed a Chinese identity.
@yo yo It's not that simple. Han identity is more cultural than racial. The people of tge Yangzijiang are not exactly descended from the yellow river civilizations either but they adopted a shared culture, writren language, and state. Today they're maybe the most archetypical han chinese around.
Sinicization is mostly a process of assimilation, not displacement.
The real slaves are the Han Chinese in China. The only countries established by the Han Chinese were the Song and Ming dynasties. The Han Chinese were a homeless people who always ran away from the Khitan, Yeojin and Mongolia.
Before 1949, the Chinese refer to the Han people (even if there are other ethnic groups in China, the Han people live in the city, and other non -Han people live outside the city. They are separated). They are separated).
After 1949, all non -Han people also gave the "Chinese ID card" as modern Chinese (including a large number of Koreans who sneaked into China after 1900). There is a "national identity" on the Chinese ID card.
Any country in modern times is multi -ethnic. Including Japan and South Korea.
关于这一段:"Before 1949, the Chinese refer to the Han people (even if there are other ethnic groups in China, the Han people live in the city, and other non -Han people live outside the city. They are separated). They are separated)."的认识有错误,也就是说,在1949年以前中国国内的民族划分并不以城市内外居民身份划分.
Interesting, I did not know that.... Really did not know that.
@@jecoatnothbeaf1567 : Because the people that were Hans, are supposedly descendents of Qin Emperor.. They say. I don't know how that works out.. since the Northern area also had like Qing people as well...
Your understanding is incorrect; it's not true that "every country in modern times is multi-ethnic." The concept of a nation-state was born in Europe, likely because Europeans seem particularly keen on categorizing people into different groups. However, China, from ancient times to the present, is a civilization that doesn't place much emphasis on lineage. What ancient China valued was the idea that all people under the sky were subjects of the country. Moreover, ancient states didn't have fixed boundaries as we understand them today but rather spheres of influence, meaning how much land could directly obey the government.
Also, the notion that "Han Chinese lived inside the cities, while other non-Han ethnicities lived outside, separately" is completely incorrect. The specific circumstances are complex and difficult to explain briefly. However, the concept of "racial segregation" does not exist within Chinese civilization; there is no phenomenon where Han Chinese lived inside the cities while other ethnicities lived outside.
@@yuyuan7204 The Han people 漢人 are the nation that attaches the most importance to "blood ".The Han people漢人 used the earliest surname,
Prevent mixed race.
The ancient Chinese refer to the Han people 漢人. The Chinese characters "Chinese 中國人" refers to the Han nationality.
Most of the Han people in China are pure species, and there are many people.
After 1949, other ethnic groups in China also attributed to the "own Chinese ID card" (which includes Korean people who sneaked). There are "national identities" on the ID card. All mixed -race people must also have. This is the same as all countries.
Japan has more mixed races than Chinese Han nationality 漢族.
The Koreans have no purebreds. They have been occupied and invaded many times. He is a mixed race of all East Asian races.
it has already been proven that the KOREAN LANGUAGE is an isolate, meaning there is no other language like it nor can people trace the Korean language to any previous progenitor or originator.
The biggest feature of ancient Korean women's traditional clothing is exposing nipples. They attract strong people to mix with them. They want to change the fate of the weak. the Mongolians will definitely do this. But ancient Chinese are unwilling to mix with any Korean woman. They think it is disgusting.
Because many Korean ancestors are " white clothes Ethnic 白衣民族 " formed by rape by ancient Mongolians.
I am Northern Han with Kazakh ancestry👋
Han Chinese are less in China, they are enthnic minorities combined as a Chinese not han Chinese people, sacrifice in war in many wars. If you read history they are less and to many invaded in mainland. Many han Chinese people are migration other countries when Chinese been invader by foreigner so they left mainland in Europe and America, alot are go to Asia to.
@@jamesteo6395 However, from the perspective of genetic results, the Han nationality itself is still dominant. For example, the results of the current sample survey of the Han population show that More than 90% of the Han Chinese are real Han Chinese rather than other ethnic minorities who call themselves the Han nationality. Therefore, the Han nationality itself can not be a minority in China
Comparisons between the Y chromosome SNP and MtDNA of modern Northern Han Chinese and 3,000 year old Hengbei ancient samples from China's Central Plains show they are extremely similar to each other and show continuity between ancient Chinese of Hengbei and current Northern Han Chinese. This showed that already 3,000 years ago the current northern Han Chinese genetic structure was already formed.[218]
Typical Y-DNA haplogroups of present-day Han Chinese include Haplogroup O-M122 and Haplogroup Q-M120, and these haplogroups also have been found (alongside some members of Haplogroup N-M231, Haplogroup O-M95, and unresolved Haplogroup O-M175) among a selection of ancient human remains recovered from the Hengbei archeological site in Jiang County, Shanxi Province, China, an area that was part of the suburbs of the capital (near modern Luoyang) during the Zhou dynasty.[237]
And the nationality itself does not depend on blood, and the national concept depends on cultural identity.Otherwise, no nation in the world is pure, because the genetic continuity of the Han nationality is one of the relatively high nations in the world, except for the north and South American Aborigines or some island aborigines.
@@jamesteo6395 Those who kept migrating are those being discriminated, for example, Hakka people. Some migrations might only be caused by change of dynasties where there're wars and massacres against those denied to be part of the new empire
I am Hakka chinese with Portuguese ancestry. No connections with Macau
@@benliu9956 Northern Han are genetically similar to the ancient people in Central Plains of China 3000 years ago. I'm not saying that Chinese are pure, but they're pretty uniformed looking at their genetic structure, especially in terms of Y chromosome which explains why given that the process of Han immigration was primarily dominated by men -- which also explains why Southern Han are mainly different from Northern Han in terms of mtDNA.
Another high quality video. Keep making more like these. In depth and fascinating stuff!
Han Chinese in Malaysia are 2nd largest ethnic in Malaysia even though the number has drastically gone down in recent years due to persecution, discrimination, and racism. Han Chinese in Malaysia are still allowed to practice their cultures and languages. There are many Mandarin schools in Malaysia and Chinese New Year is a public holiday in Malaysia with decorations filling up the malls.
You need to get your facts right. Please check the statistics of chinese in malaysia before comment. Chinese population has been increasing every year.

Good point in the video. To sum up, the reason for the Han Chinese being such a big ethnic group is due to the large extent of the Han Dynasty Empire in the past, allowing migration within the empire, leading to homogenization among different groups of people within the Han Empire. So, The Han Empire extended to Northern Korea and North and Central Vietnam as well, during the Han Dynasty, imparting strong inheritance of the Han language, culture, and genetic to the Koreans and Vietnamese. In fact, Korean and Vietnamese languages were largely derived from an ancient form of the Han language. Probably the same with Cantonese and the culture of Southern China today.
Dont tell that to the Koreans, they dont believe that at all.
@yo yo China is not the regime of the Han nationality, so it has not been 400 years since the Yuan and Qing Dynasties added up. Moreover, they also recognized the Han culture, because they were nomadic people at that time and had no advanced civilization. Except for these two dynasties, the Han nationality led China. How did you come to the conclusion that China was always ruled by other nationalities in 2000? You said India has been invaded by other peoples, and I still believe it. Don't show off your ignorant history.
@yo yo Mongolia only appeared on the historical stage in more than 1000 AD. How can you conclude that the Han nationality was ruled by Mongolia for more than 2000 years?
@yo yo China is ruled by other nationalities, namely Yuan Dynasty and Qing Dynasty. We all know this after studying history. Why do you say that our Han nationality has been enslaved? You are such an idiot. What I said is historical common sense. Do you want to contradict me?
@yo yo In ancient times, if you don't have a brilliant civilization, you will make rumors of other civilizations. Please stop your ignorance.

Why the Han though? Why not the Qin? Or the Zhou? Given how important Zhou was to the development of Chinese culture why is it identification with the Han?
Han seems to have had the bigger, cosmopolitan, and more unified dynasty. Kind of like the Romans, which were around at that time.
chinese do called themselves other than Han like Tang but Han is more often and strong in Cultures and traditional because in the Worlds people called them Han like Korean called Hanzi(han chinese character) to Hanja and Japanese is called Kanji, Vietnamese is called Hán-Nôm/Chữ Nôm
Geographically, the people who call themselves Han are from regions that were historically 'fully' unified by the Han Dynasty and those regions experienced a golden age. Before the Han Dynasty, China was much less politically unified and also much less culturally/ethnically homogenous.
Similarly, Cantonese people in Southeastern China like to refer to themselves as Tang because that's when the region was 'fully' unified and had a golden age under the Tang Dynasty.

Actually , China has a great Plains with temperate monsoon climate, which size if more than all East-Asia countries combined.
It's so easy for China to feed a large population in ancient time.
Hui ppl is also ethnically Han but believes Islam.
Hui carry plenty of Turkic gene, with some Arab and Jewish gene. Many of their ancestors came from central Asia to serve the Mongol Empire.

Molecular anthropology studies indicate that majority Han Chinese can trace their ancestries to one of three lineages dated between 6,000 and 3,500 BC.
Proud to call Han Chinese is during Han dynasty's period of his super power. In fact it composed of 36 different tribe groups of that time. Now chinese composes of 92 different tribes, i.e. 36 + 56 tribes of today.

Han Chinese from north and south look quite different …
From Thailand: We have both. northern chinese and southern chinese .It surprised me a lot.When we found out and also ancient Thai people had DNA associated with northern Chinese people. (Thai ancient people are half Chinese). The latest information on ancient DNA ... Prof. Dr. Viphu also took a sample of ancient DNA in Pangmapha District, Mae Hong Son Province, 1,600-1,800 years old found that Pangmapha DNA has a 50% genetic ratio from northern China.

Finally!! Chinese is a nationality not an ethnicity!!!!! For the love of God!!!!
❤❤❤❤ One of the main reason why the Chinese appears to be unified is because the written language based on common characters is the same even if the pronunciation is completely different. As a result a Cantonese may not understand what a Hokkien is talking about i.e the spoken language is completely different . But if they write it down on a piece of paper, they will be able to comprehend what the other is talking about. The common written language is what makes the hundreds of different types of Chinese feel that they belong to the same group of people i.e. Chinese. ❤❤❤😂
This video makes a good point about genetic homogenization because of lots of complex migrations and mixing over a large area, but it totally ignores the elephant in the room from the start. Comparing Han to Bengali makes no sense at all. Han ethnicity is basically equivalent to the Sinitic node within Sino-Tibetan, which is comparable to a node like Indo-Aryan within Indo-European, which has around 800 million people. There are dozens of Sinitic languages. A node like Bengali is equivalent to a node like Wu or Hakka, a node that defines a small group of languages, not a single language. Linguists define a language by mutual unintelligibility. In China and in many discussions about China elsewhere, there's a strange science-free twilight zone where dozens of mutually unintelligible Sinitic languages are infamously grouped together into a single "Chinese" language (or written language defining cultural identity instead of spoken language) and "Han" ethnicity for political reasons, which is complete nonsense and makes for meaningless comparisons to the rest of the world in terms of linguistic/ethnic diversity. Bengali is a handful of languages that are very similar, just like Hakka, with a pretty strong sense of ethnic identity (food, literature, folk music, etc), but there's also a very strong sense of shared cultural identity between many Indo-Aryan groups, like sharing the North Indian classical music tradition, just like all the Han groups share a classical music tradition from all the nationalization processes over centuries. There are also cultural features like Indian nationalism and Hindu nationalism that unite large portions of the Indo-Aryan states. The diversity of cuisine could be considered analogous between Han and Indo-Aryan, a lot of diversity across a vast bio-region and population. While India divided itself into states by dominant linguistic divisions, China's linguistic divisions are more scattered and messy, and politically suppressed by several mechanisms including the recent introduction of a national lingua franca (Standard Mandarin) and a standardized script for the lingua franca. In both nations, there are hundreds of small minority groups in isolated areas that have separate cultural identities and languages from different families than the national language family. Sinitic languages are often analogized to the Romance node of Indo-European, with Gallo-Romance analogizing to Min, etc, which is at least in the right ballpark. It's not obvious which groupings are fair comparisons, but it is obvious that the groupings you assumed in this video are not even close to reasonable. You repeated the anti-scientific assumptions of Chinese nationalist propaganda. I expected this to be the main point of the video, but you didn't address it at all.
There is no more pure Han Chinese anymore. Sad, but true. By the time you get to Beijing, Northeast China, the people are already shifted towards Mongolian/Manchu, they are to a degree Altaic. The closest thing to ancient Han "downtown China" is probably found in Wuhan area..
we are all from Africa at some point in past, so it's pointless... the difference is miniscule.
That's the same as saying Punjabis and Kashmiris in northern India are the same as people from Mumbai or Chennai. Think before you speak.
You forgot to add India and Pakistan to Bengalis, and Arabs differ a bit the gulf ones are way darker than the Levants, also there is no Russian ethnicity they're part of the Slav ethnicity.
The map you used to show Bengalis was extremely misleading. The area you showed as "lower bengal" is actually from British era when they had adjoined several different ethno-linguistic groups in a single province called "Bengal Presidency". Actual geographical expanse of Bengalis is less than one-third of what you showed in the map. But yeah, Bengalis are a huge group because despite having a smaller geographical spread, the areas they inhabit are one of the most densely populated regions on earth (Bangladesh and Indian Bengal).
Northern Han is indeed quite homogenous as a group, but Southern Han has greater variations.
No it’s the other way around
@@darkplatinum2362 Southern Han are more heterogeneous than Northern Han, it's already proven by genetic studies.
TheXanian how’s that even possible? Northern Chinese people are historically neighbors with other races and even had more invasions from foreign tribes than southern Chinese. Even many northern Han look Korean, Mongolian, Manchu rather than Cantonese or southern Chinese people who literally just look Chinese. Southern han people don’t look mixed. Northerners in the other hand look very mixed.
@@darkplatinum2362 Southern Han had also interacted with many other tribes, such as Hmong-Mien, Tai-Kadai, and possibly also Austroasiatic and Austronesian. Some of them indeed look mixed with SE Asian, especially the ones from the far south. And if you look at ancient Chinese paintings and figurines, you'll find out that the people depicted in those artworks looked more northern than southern, with wide face, small eyes, and pale skin.
@@TheXanian I've seen Chinese people in rural areas in the north and they look super dark and tanned. They look pretty much like a Southern Chinese. I think the distinction is more urban and rural rather than Northern and Southern. Of course it makes sense that Northern Chinese are generally more "pure" and "true" in terms of being Han Chinese, because Chinese civilization originated in the Yellow River after all, not the Yangtze River (though a lot of migrations happened southwards).
Just one little correction, North African are not Arab
Japanese people are closer to northern Han, than northern Han is to southern Han & southern Han are closer genetically to Vietnamese than northern Han so Han Chinese is not very genetically homogeneous depending how you look at it.
A study actually said that the Southern Han are equally distant between Northern Han and Southeast Asians with their paternal make-up being Han itself.
@@Berisha south Han is not close to Southeast asian , the only southeast asian south han close are vietnamese and Dai People ,but they both mixed with Han chinese heavily ,and plus not all south han close to them ,mainly people form guangxi and guangdong ,others are quite far away .

@@Berisha you have forget one thing ,despite south chinese do intermarriged with native people of south China ,but they are not southeast asian you see today ,despite they may share some gene and even language with present day southeast asian , but please keep in mind ,present day southeast asian are mixed themselves .

And vietnamese is an interesting case , being Austroasiatic itself ,but too heavily mixed with tribe from china and Han chinese ,actually pulled them much much north than their ancestor are and become the closet southeast asian to Han chinese .
@@kellyma2992 genetic results show that Vietnamese and Thai people are both equally distant from southern Chinese. I am referring to eurogenes k36 samples.

@@zhangjeff238 : Why don't you read the comments created by my ID alone ? In the English, we say , "people from China is called Chinese"... but if you can read, and write in Chibesr, then you will know that there are different family trees, some people consider a family tree to be a single "clan", or "race"... in China. Disturbing and creating a new definition which forces the people to not accept themselves is like country suicide.... A membership to a country, by "nationality" definition does not mean that it is their own race. (FYI, I am also an overseas' British Chinese.... In case, you assume that I cannot read or write Chinese. )
I'm staying in south east asia and am an overseas chinese by ancestry both my parents. I wonder what the DNA test would show since my ancestors migrated here like 100 years ago. :)
The Han "ethnicity" is a mix bag of different ancient ethnic groups of people. Also some previous minorities become "Han" through sinicization and assimilation. It's like how the Wakhi people of Western China is categorised as Tajik when they are really 2 different ethnic groups in China. Also the ethnic Sherpas are categorised as Tibetans when they are 2 different groups actually.
so long as they self-identify as it, it is reality.

Genetically, Han in the North China and Han in the South China are not of the same ethnicity.
Not everyone in China is "chinese" ! And obviously, you could see that they are of different "tribes" or "race" as we call it in cantonese even. When you use this kind of English definition, you lose... Cos many citizens within China itself, does not classify it the way you guys do !!! They see themselves as another tribe/race.
It’s so interesting the comments under this video. Half of them are yelling at me saying the same thing as you. The other half are yelling at me saying the exact opposite.

@@Asianometry : I can tell that, you are actually not Chinese. Cos what you said in the video.. about "people cannot distinguish who is who". This is actually not true. The "Hans".. if that is the yellow river people. They literally have an actual "family surname book". And every single person's surname and generation is written into this family tree book. So that you know who is who. And you consult the book as well before you name your child. You do not have this ? Ahhh... why IS that? Eh ? Cos you did not come from the "Hans" or the Confucian ettiquettes? It figures. In my father's village.. everybody's names are written down... and it went as far back as before the creation of PRC as well... I find what you say odd. What ming dynasty and what qing dynasty did, did not applied blanket to the entire region. So this is why some people also DO dispute this today. Cos some family tree names are allowed to prosper.. or they can breed but others cannot. And at the same time, there is an element of "Hanification" going on. Like.. those from Northern China or Beijing... if they are civil servants or diplomats or CCP members whatever those organisations are, they get sent to those rural and odd places where those so called 56 ethnic groups are... and in the past, they literally bred with those people and literally OVERTAKE the land ! That is how they "conquered" and managed that region basically... This is why some of those old villages and rural that dated back at least 300 years... they now send a representative into the state council to smooth things out. And they fought off those who tried to take their village. They also had back up as well. You cannot use the current 2022's modern eyes and construct to apply to actual and traditional values... which, as far as I am concerned , still exist. Or rather should exist. Modernity is not all that.
The worst thing that PRC did was to remove its borders.. That ruined everything thereafter. And then people intermixed... and even taken in some odd ball archiac DNAs as well... So bad. And the people in the USA side keep fanning the situation. This is not good. If you're Hans chinese, shouldn't you have like a larger DNA sample of O3 or O2??? Why is everyone's DNA or ID cards.. have Hans, if they are just purely like 20% ?
Chinese Han people are a nation that attaches great importance to inheritance and blood. And ancient Han people believed that non -Han people were barbarians. There were only Han and barbarians in China (including Koreans and Japanese). National identity was important.
Marriage between Han and other ethnic groups is a major event. Compared with other countries and nations, the Han pure blood index is very high, because the ancient Han people have a large population. Other nations are almost destroyed if they are married with the Han nationality.
(Otherwise, the Chinese ethnic minorities disappear. Han nationality identity is displayed on the Chinese ID card).
Since ancient times, the Han people in China and the non -Han people in China have lived separately (the population ratio is 99: 1),
The Han people live in the city, not the Han people live outside the city (there are also a small part of the Han people who have been exiled and escaped from the war outside the city).
Therefore, Chinese ethnic minorities have always existed (some menstrual history), and their genes and culture have also retained very primitive, and they have changed very little. (For example: a large number of Korean people sneaked into China in 1900, and they have always existed. Have a Chinese ID card, but most of them are not married to the Chinese)
As for Korean history, it has been controlled by multiple ethnic groups for thousands of years (men are sent to China and Mongolia to be slaves, women are prostitutes), and there are almost no purebred Korean. It can only be said to be mixed with East Asians.
The same is true of the Japanese (or Korean). Most people in Europe and other countries are mixed.
Bengali at about 300 million. Bangladesh alone has 160 mil. Where'd you get 140 mil? Arabs are at about 400 million+. Then again it's not homogeneous. Arab countries have diverse ethnic groups because of their history.

O2 haplogroup is found among the Han Chinese 56% and the nagas in India with around 80%. Y chromosome which they inherited from their father.

As descendant of Southern Chinese from Canton. All I know is that my elders traditional self description via a vis outsiders has always been Tong Yan or Tang People. This is true of the Hakka Hokkien Teo Chew. Even Muslims Chinese were viewed as Tong Yan in South East Asia if they speak any one of the major Chinese languages or celebrate Chinese Lunar New Year unlike in China where they would be viewed as separate from Han. Hua is the new modern description that includes minorities particularly the Miao and Zhuang if they have migrated together with the other Tang migrants (which was few and far between) and followed customs of the other Tang migrants. We had one China born catholic priest of Miao descent who is insisted we place a ancestral plaque in Church to pay homage during Chinese New Year mass. I prefer to self describe as TONG YAN or Tang Ren as oppose to Hua Han and Chinese. One it has a longer history of self identification AND second that it has become nationality neutral as oppose to the CHUNG HWA or HAN which still denotes a sense of CHINESE NATION. HAN is too divisive and rooted in Yuan Ming Qing politics.
Millions of Chinese all over the world especially Southern/Cantonese call each other Tong Yan. It unified especially overeas Chinese as belonging to this huge ethnic group. Its either you are Tong Yan or not. They dont call Korean or Japanese, Mongolian, Turks Tong Yan that's for sure.
Huaren and tang Ren and han ren are the same thing.
Huaren doesn't indicate any dynasty associated. It's a general term to call every Chinese people. Before the term han was used, Chinese people called themselves huaxia people
Chinese people only started calling themselves han ren in the han dynasty which china reached its first golden age.
And tang Ren was when china reached the 2nd golden age and people started migrating to Canton area and thur brings them the term tang Ren people of tang.
Tang dynasty should be loved, but your were Xia before so hua xia
@@ingtlitto8964 nope. I was never Xia. Or Hua. My ancestors were Yueh peoples . And I am Tong Yan. I dont even considere mya self Chinese . All these may seem like semantics to many but there are underlying political reasons for this.

I don't think you can compare a Chinese ethnicity on its own to all European ethnicities. For one China is a singular country with a singular majority ethnic population. Europe is a continent and does not have a singular majority ethnic population, the countries within Europe hold their own majority ethnic groups that are locally native to each countries border. Lumping them all together into one category and then comparing all of them to a singular ethnic group isn't really genetically correct at all. It would be like saying since Japan and China are both in Asia then they're both ethnically the same people and we can speak of them as such.
I think part of the message of my video is that the idea that China being a singular country with a single ethnicity is more of a belief than an established fact. There’s a lot of differences between peoples and populations of different provinces - each of which have had the same enclave like effect as you’d say is in Europe. Politically the CCP is incentivized to make clear the ethnic unity of the Chinese people. I don’t particularly find it to be true. You’d only need to look at many people of the “Han” race to kinda get a sense of what I am talking about
@@Asianometry Han Chinese is a singular majority ethnic population of china encompassing almost all of china besides the far west, they make up 93% of the entire population of China. Europe does not have a single majority ethnic population anywhere near the size of that. The biggest ethnic population in Europe most likely accounts for 20% of the total population of Europe tops, probably not even that much. Ethnic groups in Europe-unlike China are confined to citizenship within their borders and resemble the same numbers of other ethnic populations within other European borders. Maybe you could compare slavic countries to each other but in reality they don't even really assimilate themselves. Like i said i just don't think you can compare all of Europe to all of China. Europe is more comparable to all of Asia.
The point is, that saying Han is like saying Roman. It's not really an ethnic group, but rather a cultural one. Han are more diverse than Slavs, and if you don't consider the slav people to be a unique ethnicity, you can't consider the Han to be one.
asianometry CCP does not promote the Han nation at all, in fact they suppress it the most
chonburi11 Not true, Han Chinese was always the majority of China and have been one ethnicity since at least 1000 years ago. The assimilation process was long completed in China proper, saying Han Chinese is not a ethnicity is like saying German is not a ethnicity, historically there were many tribes, duchies in Germany as well, now all Germans, not prussians, Merlenburg etc etc
Hui is a mixed group with Muslim Turkic and Muslim Chinese including Han.

@xxsharon xxx I'm staying in south east asia (Malaysia) and am an overseas chinese by ancestry both my parents. I wonder what the DNA test would show since my ancestors migrated here like 100 years ago. :)
of course, they are Han
ethnic Chinese = ethnic Han
0:15 Bengal Map is wrong..
Oops. Well, it’s not a Bengali channel.
Yup Assam region is shown as Bengal.. Totally misinformed
There really isn't any significant Mongol genetic portion, after all the history starting with Ghengis Khan?
Would be better if u practice your narration a bit..
There is no "HAN" Chinese race. Chinese who can get along normally identify a common ancestor. In time to come, they inter-marry and find the earliest ancestor dating all the way the recorded history from Han Period (Han Dynasty). It is not a BREAD ROLLING and ROLLING Concept like you said in your video. That's nuts. If you marry a pretty maiden from the area you demarcate as "CHINA" because you are not committing incest since you are not cousins marrying, then your marriage will be happier, but your kids who are halfies may want to marry someone from that side. This is PROHIBITED unless it is NOT incestuous, then to trace relations, you find a common ancestor on a chart - Ming Jin Tang whatever you want, when your kids or grandkids intermarry with others who have a common ancestor in the Han period, then you are considered "Han" or "Tang or whatever" but mostly Han cos Han is the oldest recorded period... If you don't marry or have sex your children will never be Han, they will just be in McDonalds... eating all day....and they will remain American. That's very simple, don't you understand?
han is semi biologically related
0:18 shouldn’t the British diaspora be at least 200M?
i would like to know about soy based fertlizer?
I actually don’t understand as why any other ethnic is called Chinese. Han is Chinese and Chinese is Han. Oh well.
come on , the English word of 'China' is from 'Chine' of Franch which means 'Chin' or 'Chinstan' from Persian, which means 'Qin' for Qin Dynasty.
And in Qin Dynasty(220 BC), the Han race are not formed at all.
@@TK-my7jg don’t see your point at all. Chinese Heritage is Han heritage. Minority have their own thing going for them. There for they are not Chinese. Is that a hard concept?
@@frankmcconnel2730 Manchu is indeed Chinese now
@@frankmcconnel2730 or call their Manchu Chinese
China have 56 ethnic groups. Stop your igorant comments.
Where are the Indians in your chart?
We're just everywhere 🤣😅
Sadly many Zhongguo Chinese had become like the Manchurians of old.
>Qing Dynasty
>content population
Real hilarious
Han Chinese here in the Philippines
LOL The bitcoin mining!
Oof I guess I’m a rounding error then
Unlike Europe where people are dying from wars, famine, viruses, China probably didn’t have many of that that would significantly affect population growth. This also explains stereotype that all Chinese lookalike. There are not many genetics variation.
If you look up bloodiest wars in history around half of them are Chinese civil wars. The numbers are ridiculous in both absolute numbers and percentage of population.
In the 700s China lost about at most 2/3rds of its population to the An Lushan rebellion.
China lost around 30 to 50 million people in the Taiping Rebellion in the 1800s.
No taipings is not killings the Han
But ..manching and traitors did..
@@robincray116mf the Chinese at the time were suffering from constant civil wars, invasions from Mongols, invasions from Manchu, then invasions from Japan etc
I wonder if some of that "homogeneity" has to do with Mao streamlining the number
of Chinese ethnic groups (or tribes) down to 56. With that happening before DNA analyses became a thing,
could small differences that define, lets say, French, English or German not simply
have been absorbed into the template that "defines" Han ?
I only know chinese before, thanks for the knowledge
'The public the people's republic of china'. Lol
They went to america
You can see them there
And europe in the slavs
I'm not han at all. This is still very interesting to me
My dad is bataknese tobanese and my mom is northeast india, so why I have chinese y dna, something wrong in dna test, I really hate
northeast india have many tibeto-burmese people groups. tibeto-burmese peoples are cousins of chinese sinitic peoples, under sino-tibetan family.
You've missed out Punjabi's, they are between 150 to 200 million in total.
China and Taiwan are multiracial countries. It's just that minorities and natives were forced to become Chinese when the Chinese migrated there.
How Chinese fertilized their land to feed so many people same land but not Europeans and Americans were able to do? Look like Chinese know use natural fertilizers like dead plants, animals and poops?
The Chinese had a head start because of geography
