Talk:Five Races Under One Union

message: I have yet to come across any scholarly literature that uses this translation of wuzu gonghe; it is more commonly rendered 'Republic of Five Races'. Cf. Harris, P., 'Chinese Nationalism: the State of the Nation', The China Journal, No. 38 (Jul., 1997), pp. 121-137; Leibold, P., 'Competing Narratives of Racial Unity in Republican China', Modern China, 2006:32.  The previous translation is more appropriate to the original usage of the phrase in the 18th century than with the context of late 19th/early 20th century nationalist republicanism.  I suggest that unless evidence to the contrary is produced that this be moved to accord with the normal academic translation of the term in this context. Cripipper (talk) 17:30, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The articles for Provisional Government of the Republic of China, Reformed Government of the Republic of China, East Hebei Autonomous Council all display this flag in their infobox. Does that mean that this flag was used for those puppet governments? If so, a mention of it should be made in this article. --71.106.173.110 (talk) 07:29, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes the flag was preferred by the Japanese army as no KMT symbols were shown on the flag. The flag was also used for several puppet governments. -- Ericmetro (talk) 05:56, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

message: Why were the Zhuang ethnic group (in Guangxi) not included in the Five Races? 68.42.243.198 (talk) 06:53, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Once Zhuang ethnic group was mentioned in the ideology of Liang Qichao (http://article.chinalawinfo.com/Article_Detail.asp?ArticleID=64541): "合汉合满合蒙合回合苗合藏组成一大民族", here "苗" usually referred to southern ethnic groups (including Zhuang) in China at that time. IMO the ideology has been simplified later according to the population of these groups. -- Ericmetro (talk) 05:55, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

message: Hui (Before 1949): Chinese Muslim (Including Hui people nowadays, Uyghur people etc)
Hui (After 1949): Hui people (nowadays) only
And this concept Five Races Under One Union is earlier than 1949. So maybe we should link "Hui" to something like "Chinese Muslim" instead of "Hui people" (which only means the Hui people nowadays) in the article. Or just use "Muslim"?

thread_title:  Link to "Hui People" seems to mean something different 

message: I would have expected this to be "wǔzú gònghé" (rather than "gōng")? Is there an exception for it being "gōng" in this case? I can't find any other sources supporting this pronunciation. Adam31415926535 (talk) 13:45, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
