The Han Chinese, Han people or simply Han ( ; ] ; Han characters: 漢人 (Mandarin pinyin: "Hànrén"; literally "Han people") or 漢族 (pinyin: "Hànzú"; literally "Han ethnicity" or "Han ethnic group")) are an East Asian ethnic group.
 They constitute approximately 92% of the population of China, 95% of Taiwan (Han Taiwanese), 76% of Singapore, 23% of Malaysia and about 17% of the global population, making them the world's largest ethnic group with over 1.3 billion people.
Hakka Americans (客家美國人 or 客裔美國人), also called American Hakka, are Han people in the United States of Hakka origin, mostly from present-day Guangdong and Fujian, China, and Taiwan.
 Many Hakka Americans have connections to Hakka diaspora in Jamaica, the Caribbean, South East Asia, Latin America, and South America.
 The Han characters for Hakka (客家) literally mean "guest families".
 Unlike other Han ethnic groups, the Hakkas are not named after a geographical region, e.g. a province, county or city.
 The Hakkas usually identify with people who speak the Hakka language or share at least some Hakka ancestry.
 The earliest Hakka immigrants to what is now the United States mostly went to Hawaii, starting when the Kingdom of Hawaii was an independent sovereign state.
 After the lifting of the Chinese Exclusion Act by the passage of the Magnuson Act in 1943, the Hakka began to come to the US from Taiwan and to a lesser extent Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, Jamaica and the Caribbean.
Han Taiwanese or Taiwanese Hans (Mandarin: 臺灣漢人) are Taiwanese people of Han (Mandarin: 漢人) descent, the largest ethnic group in the world.
 According to the Executive Yuan, Taiwan, Hans comprise 95 to 97 percent of the Taiwanese population, which also includes Austronesians and other non-Han people.
 Major waves of Han immigration occurred in the 17th to 19th centuries and between 1945 and 1949.
 Han Taiwanese mainly speak three languages: Mandarin, Hokkien and Hakka.
The Family (家, pinyin: Jiā, Wade-Giles: Chia) is a semi-autobiographical novel by Chinese author Ba Jin, the pen-name of Li Feigan (1904-2005).
 His most famous novel, it chronicles inter-generational conflict between old ways and progressive aspirations in an upper-class family in the city of Chengdu, a prosperous but provincial city in the fertile Sichuan basin in the early 1920s following the New Culture Movement.
 The novel was wildly popular among China's youth and established the author as a leading voice of his generation.
The predominant religions in Northeast China (including the provinces of Liaoning, Jilin and Heilongjiang, historically also known as Manchuria) are Chinese folk religions led by local shamans.
 Taoism and Chinese Buddhism were never well established in this region of recent Han Chinese settlement (Han people began to be a large part of the population only by the Qing dynasty).
 For this reason the region has been a hotbed for folk religious and Confucian churches, which provide a structure, clergy, scriptures and ritual to the local communities.
 The Way of the Return to the One, the Universal Church of the Way and its Virtue (Shanrendao), and more recently the Falun Gong, have been the most successful sects in Manchuria, claiming millions of followers.
 Schools of Tibetan Buddhism, traditionally transmitted by the region's Mongol minorities, have made inroads also among Han Chinese.
Han chauvinism is a term coined by Mao Zedong in 1956 to criticize ethnocentrism among the majority Han people of China.
 In his speech, titled "Ten Major Relations", Mao stated that "on the relationship between the Han nationality and the minority nationalities... we put the emphasis on opposing Han chauvinism".
 This anti-chauvinistic idea is part of the People's Republic of China's "zhonghua minzu" conception of China as a multi-ethnic nation, both historically and in the present, which includes not only the Han but also 55 ethnic minorities.
 This is expressed in the constitution of the People's Republic of China, which states that China is a "unitary [multiethnic] state created jointly by the people of all its nationalities" and that "it is necessary to combat big [ethnic group] chauvinism, mainly Han chauvinism, and to combat local [ethnic] national[ist] chauvinism".
Plains aborigines () are Taiwanese aborigines originally residing in low land regions, as opposed to Highland aborigines.
 Plains aborigines consist of eight individual peoples, rather than being a single ethnic group.
 It is part of the Austronesian family.
 Plains aborigines have been labelled by Japanese and Han Chinese as "plains savages" or the term Pepohoan () from Hokkien and "cooked savages" ().
 Beginning from the 17th century, plains aborigines have been heavily influenced by external forces from Dutch, Spanish and Han Chinese immigration to Taiwan.
 This ethnic group has since been extensively assimilated with Han Chinese language and culture; it has lost its cultural identity and it is almost impossible without careful inspection to distinguish plains aborigines from Taiwanese Han people.
The Han dynasty () was the second imperial dynasty of China (206 BC–220 AD), preceded by the Qin dynasty (221–206 BC) and succeeded by the Three Kingdoms period (220–280 AD).
 Spanning over four centuries, the Han period is considered a golden age in Chinese history.
 To this day, China's majority ethnic group refers to themselves as the "Han people" and the Chinese script is referred to as "Han characters".
The Cheng Han (; 303 or 304-347) was a state of the Sixteen Kingdoms during the Jin Dynasty (265-420) in China.
 It represented two states, the Cheng state (成, pinyin Chéng) proclaimed in 304 by Li Xiong and the Han state (汉, pinyin Hàn) in 338 by Li Shou.
 Since they were both ruled by the Li family of the Ba ethnicity, scholars with Chinese backgrounds often combined them into a single Cheng Han state.
 (The Li family has also been described as being of Ba-Di ethnicity, they were originally Ba from modern Sichuan who had settled among the Di in modern Gansu.)
 Western texts frequently referred to the two states separately.
 Whether the treatment is correct is debatable—when Li Shou claimed the throne in 338, he did not acknowledge his throne as having been inherited from Li Xiong's line, and indeed, while continuing the worship of Li Xiong, maintained it in a separate temple.
 Li Shou's son Li Shi, however, acknowledged the prior emperors as his predecessors.
 Cheng Han's was the earliest establishment of the Sixteen Kingdoms.
Several ethnic groups of the People's Republic of China are not officially recognized.
 Taken together, these groups (未识别民族 "wèi shíbié mínzú)" number more than 730,000 people; if considered as a single group, they would constitute the twentieth most populous ethnic group of China.
 Some scholars have estimated that there are over 200 distinct ethnic groups that inhabit China.
 There are in addition small distinct ethnic groups that have been classified as part of larger ethnic groups that are officially recognized.
 Some groups like the Hui of Xinjiang with the Hui of Fujian are geographically and culturally separate except for the shared belief of Islam.
 Han Chinese being the world's largest ethnic group has a large diversity within it, such as in Gansu, the Han here may have genetic traits from the assimilated Tangut civilization.
 Although they are indigenous to Hainan island and do not speak a Chinese language, the Limgao (Ong-Be) people near the capital (8% of the population) are counted as Han Chinese.
