Xiongnu, Tubo, Turkic, Khitan, Xianbei, Di, Qiang, Jurchen, which ethnic minority was the most power

In ancient China, ethnic minorities such as the Xiongnu, Tibetan, Turkic, Khitan, Xianbei, Di, Qiang, and Jurchen all had strong periods. However, if you were to choose the most powerful minority among them, I would consider it to be the Mongols.

Under the leadership of Genghis Khan and his descendants, the Mongol Empire once ruled over the world's most extensive territory, including China, Central Asia, West Asia, South Russia, and other places. The Mongols had outstanding achievements in military, politics, and culture, and their conquests and domination also had a profound impact on world history. In the heyday of the Mongol Empire, their armies were almost invincible, making the great powers of the time look like great enemies.

While other ethnic minorities have had periods of strength, the Mongols are more powerful than ever before. Therefore, I think that the Mongols were the most powerful ethnic minority in ancient China.

This should not be comparable, because it is not the same period, just like Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong. If you really want an answer, I personally recommend the Jurchens. Nurhachi is the leader of this famous clan.

The Qin and Han Xiongnu were strong, and the Xianbei were almost wiped out, and the two Jin and North Korea were defeated by the Han Dynasty, and the Xiongnu did not slow down to fight back, annexing the Southern Xiongnu, and the Khitan established the Liao State, but it was only rampant for a while, and it was soon destroyed by the Jin established by the Jurchens. The strongest was Mongolia, Genghis Khan, who hit Europe.

The Turks, the Mongols, all went to Europe...

In the more than 5,000 years of history of our country, we have always been invaded by foreign races. In the Han Dynasty, the people of the barbarian tribe would be called the Xiongnu, and in the Tang Dynasty, the Khitan and Jurchen people rose at the same time, reaching their peak in the Northern Song Dynasty. The roots of the rise of the ethnic groups in northern China have a lot to do with the Central Plains Dynasty.

According to historical records,Both the Xiongnu and the Khitan belonged to the northern ethnic groups, while the girls belonged to the northeastern ethnic groups. Moreover, the Khitan was inherited from the Xiongnu. The Jurchens are the descendants of the Tassels.

1. The origin of ethnic minorities Since the beginning of China's historical records, there have been continuous northern nomads invading the Central Plains, so how did these nomads come about? In fact, as early as the third generation, there was a tribe called the Dog Rong in the Rong people, who was of the same blood as the Xirong in the Chinese nation. It is that the dog Rong once destroyed the Western Zhou Dynasty, and later this tribe was expelled to the north and merged with the tribal peoples in the north, so the Xiongnu were formed during the Qin and Han dynasties.

Second, the relationship between the ethnic minorities The Xiongnu were divided into Xianbei and Rouran during the Wei and Jin dynasties, and the Rouran were the ancestors of the Khitan, so the Khitan was related to the Xiongnu, and the Khitan was the descendant of the Xiongnu. At the same time, there was a Wei tribe when the Xiongnu appeared, and some people thought that the Wei tribe was actually a part of the Xiongnu, and later the Wei tribe formed early Mongolia in the five dynasties. Before the Murwei people, some people inferred that they were Sushen people, and after the continuous development of history, the Sushen people merged with other ethnic groups many times, so in the Tang Dynasty, they developed into the Jurchens, and in the Song Dynasty, they developed into the Jurchens.

III. The Historical Significance of Ethnic Minorities To sum up, the birth and rise and fall of ethnic minorities in China have a great relationship with the strength or weakness of the Central Plains regime, and at the same time are affected by the geographical environment, so the rise and fall of each ethnic group is different. To a certain extent, the continuous invasion of ethnic minorities has promoted the continuous military progress and development of the Central Plains, improved the comprehensive strength of the country, and promoted the integration and progress of economy and culture.

The Xiongnu and Khitan were both northern nomads, and the Jurchens were from the northeast; And the Khitan is actually just a continuation of the Xiongnu.

The Xiongnu were the first ethnic minorities to appear on the stage of history, and after the decline, Xianbei rose, and the Khitan was the descendant of East Xianbei. And the ancestors of the Jurchens are said to be Hu people.

The tribe was exterminated.

The Northern Xiongnu were completely defeated by the Han Dynasty all the way to the west, and the Southern Xiongnu were partially integrated into the Central Plains after the destruction of the regime, and some returned to the north to live. However, after gradually integrating into the local area, the name of Xiongnu was no longer used. People are not dead, but nations do not exist.

After the Xianbei people from the Sui Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty, they went back to seek refuge with their relatives in Rouran, and after Rouran was destroyed by the Turks, the Khitan and Murwei were established by the descendants, and the Murwei was the later Mongols. Therefore, Xianbei is now the Mongolian ethnic group.

After the destruction of the Di and Qiang regimes, they migrated to the southwest. The rise of the Tibetans annexed a large number of Qiang tribes. Therefore, most of these two ethnic groups have become Tibetans, and the rest have become ethnic minorities in the southwest, such as the Naxi, Yi, Qiang, and so on.

Not many have integrated or become Han Chinese, otherwise, how would the ethnic minorities in China 56 come from?

Xiongnu, Rouran, Turkic, Khitan, Jurchen, Tatar is the name of the northern ethnic minorities in different periods of ancient China, each of their names is like the name of the Han dynasty and the name of the year, are rich in profound meaning, from ancient times, the vast number of northern ethnic minorities and the Huaxia people, the predecessor of the Han nation, are like shadows, and continue to fight, fusion, and finally after thousands of years of vicissitudes of change, become a member of our 56 ethnic family, The above-mentioned ethnic minorities are the most typical representatives.

These are the tribes of the past, that is, the ethnic minorities that are now called, are all heroic and warlike peoples.
