How many ethnic groups live in the newly built county, the largest county?

Everyone should know that China is a very large country with a land area, and among all the provincial-level administrative regions in China, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region should be the largest. Because of the large area, the area of many counties and cities in Xinjiang is also very large, which is mainly due to the special geographical environment of Xinjiang.

And today I will introduce to you a county in Xinjiang, this county is the largest county in China, the name is Ruoqiang County, I believe that many people are still relatively unfamiliar with this place, but in fact, Ruoqiang County is a more important place in ancient times, and the famous "Silk Road" must pass through this place in ancient times.

So since it is said to be the largest county in China, how big is Ruoqiang County? At present, the area here is about 10,000 square kilometers, while Zhejiang Province is only 10,000 square kilometers. In other words, the area of Ruoqiang County is equivalent to two Zhejiang provinces, which is actually a hard thing to believe, because Ruoqiang is only a county seat.

So what are the characteristics of such a large place? That is, there are only 10,000 people living here, although it has been a few years since this data was counted, but it can still be seen that the population of Ruoqiang is not very large. Zhejiang Province has a population of 58.5 million, which is more than 1,000 times the population of Ruoqiang County.

So as an area with such a small population density, many people may think that Ruoqiang is a very desolate place, but it is not. On the contrary, Ruoqiang is a place where many ethnic groups coexist, and there are 15 ethnic groups living here, mainly Han, Mongolian, Uyghur, etc., and you can feel the culture and history of many ethnic groups here.

Of course, in addition to the economy is a little worse, Ruoqiang is still very good in all aspects, there are very rich mineral resources, and the scenery is very beautiful, and it is also very suitable for tourism. So how much do you know about Ruoqiang County?

The establishment of ethnic townships shall be decided by the people of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government. Except in special circumstances, the names of ethnic townships shall be determined mainly by the name of the place plus the name of the ethnic group. For example:
