Legend behind Chinese ethnic groups

It is said that the Chinese nation was created by a female god.

She made clay figures and gave lives to them.

There are two heroes in Chinese history: The Yellow Emperor and Yan Emperor.

Legends say that all the Chinese are their descendants.

The Chinese nation is composed of 56 ethnic groups (minzu) with distinct features.

These minzu are distributed all over China with their own traditions.

Cultural characteristics of songs and dances of the Uyghur, Water-Splashing Festival of the Dai,

silver ornaments of the Miao and the Naadam fair of the Mongolian people.

People use 'brothers' to describe their relationship among different minzu.

Brotherhood means that different minzu live harmoniously as a huge family.

The perception of what is small is the secret of clear-sightedness;

Who uses well his light ,Reverting to its source so bright,
