China is known to be one of the world’s largest multiethnic and multicultural country in

the world today. This is a transformation that most scholars have taken time to analyze over the

years. Various studies conducted by various scholars indicate that an outsider can view the

Chinese society as a homogenous society but in the real sense, it is a country with a very diverse

population. Its population is made up of various ethnic groups and cultures. The contemporary

China has about 56 ethnic groups which are already in the records of the national government.

The ethnic majority group among these is the Han.1 The rest of the 55 ethnic groups have smaller

populations which have made them referred as the minorities.


Even though the 55 ethnic groups are known to be the minorities, they live in vast areas

scattered throughout the country. It is estimated to cover over 64 percent of the entire country

mainly in the north-eastern, Northwestern, South West and the Northern parts of the country. All

these areas are the borders and the rural areas of China. The major economic activities done by

these minorities is either farming or pastoralism. The structure of the Chinese country took

shaped since the Song and the Qing Dynasties’ long history. The most diverse of its provinces is

the Yunnan province which hosts over 20 ethnic groups.2 The other ethnic groups live in

compact communities in the various regions of the country noted above. This diversity has

shaped and influenced the Chinese political, cultural and social activities through the interactions

between the 55 ethnic minorities and the Han. All these transformations were influenced by both

domestic and foreign factors discussed in this paper. The paper also discusses the significance of

the transformations on the social, political and the cultural aspects in China.
