    After the Northern Xiongnu moved westward, they lost their records because they were out of the field of vision of civilized peoples and did not have any written language. Whether the Huns who appeared in Europe 300-400 years later were the Xiongnu or not is a great debate in the historiographical circles.

    Mainstream historians in modern times generally believe that the Huns from Central Asia and the Huns north of the Central Plains were mixed nomads (or barbarians) who preferred to fight and form alliances with horses, but they were only ethnic groups rather than homogeneous groups.

    Summary. In fact, the northern ethnic minorities existed before the Xia and Zhou dynasties, and in the Spring and Autumn Period, the powerful ethnic groups in the northwest were the dog Rong, and later evolved to differentiate other ethnic groups, the Xiongnu was a minority that rose later in the north, and the Warring States period began to be strong, like the Zhao State during the Warring States Period, and the Yan State all had traces of building the Great Wall to resist the invasion of the Xiongnu.

    The fundamental reason for the war and peace between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty:

    The backward slave nomads were attracted by the civilization created by the advanced feudal farming peoples, who lacked the advanced technologies of farming, iron smelting, and salt smelting that the agrarian peoples possessed.

    The war between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu was one of the reasons for the barbarian invasion.

    The fundamental reason for the war and peace between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty:

    The backward slave nomads were attracted by the civilization created by the advanced feudal farming peoples, and the nomads lacked the advanced technologies of farming, iron smelting, and oak and salt smelting.

    The direct causes of the war and peace between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty: 1. The rise of the Xiongnu national power; 2 Daily needs for salt, iron, silk, etc. The direct cause of the Han Dynasty's war with the Xiongnu:

    1 In the period of Emperor Wu, the country was strong; 2. The internal political environment is stable (the policy of cutting feudal domains has cracked down on the power of the kings); Only the lease and sale 3 The southern border is stable; 4 The interest of peace and kinship (temporary border tranquility) is less than the benefit of military means (depending on World War I). The Battle of Mayi opened the prelude to the Western Han Dynasty's strategic counterattack against the Xiongnu.

    It can also be said that the war between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu was one of the reasons for the barbarian invasion, but the most direct reason for the discussion was the rise of the barbarian forces, and their demand for resources and interests would inevitably lead to contradictions.

    The Xiongnu are an ancient ethnic group in northern China, which bred in the Hetao area, and according to legend, the Xiongnu are the descendants of the Xia people. Later, the Xiongnu gradually integrated into various ethnic groups in China in the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms, and gradually assimilated, merged, and disappeared in the remaining thousands of years.

    The Xiongnu originated very early, and they belonged to the nomadic people. Legend has it that one of the descendants of the Xiongnu people, after the fall of the Xia Dynasty, they fled to the north, where they multiplied, and now they should have integrated into other ethnic groups.

    The ancient Xiongnu were later divided into two parts:After a long period of time, the gap between these Xiongnu and our Central Plains began to slowly widen, and they became authentic Europeans。According to the investigation of relevant experts, the current Hungarians are part of the Huns.

    The other part of the Huns chose to stay in the Central Plains. After a long time of getting along, the appearance of these Huns has basically been the same as that of the Han people. According to the findings of some historians, the surname Liu in some northern Shaanxi regions may be the descendants of the Xiongnu at that time.

    Of course, it is not only the surname Liu, but also many other surnames, such as: He, Yu, Ci, Lang, Guo, Li, Zhang, etc. In short, the Huns have now been integrated into the big family of our 56 nationalities.

    In the early days, the Xiongnu were nomadic people, and they traveled on horseback wherever they went, and the nomads lived in today's Ordos grassland, and they have always lived in a tribal group. Later, Qin Shi Huang began to unify the world, and the general of Qin, Meng Tian, led 300,000 troops to fight against the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu could not defeat the army of Qin and could only flee in despair. The Xiongnu began to grow and develop during the Western Han Dynasty, and began to move to cross the border.

    Attack the Western Han Dynasty to gain land. At this time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Huo Qubing to lead hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the Xiongnu, this time the Xiongnu were attacked by the army of the Han Dynasty worse than the last time, and the Xiongnu did not dare to cross the border of the Central Plains after that.

    Later, in 53 AD, the king of the Xiongnu took the initiative to come to the Han Dynasty and wanted to make peace with the Han people. This has the story of Wang Zhaojun's exit from the fortress, Princess Wang Zhaojun sacrificed herself for the stability and peace of the Han Dynasty in the future, and made peace with the Huns. From this time on, the peace between the Xiongnu and the Han people was maintained, the longest period in Chinese history, about half a century.
