Yunnan Clique

The Yunnan Clique(Chinese: 滇系; pinyin: Diān Xì) is one of several mutually hostile military warlord cliques which split from the Beiyang government. It is named after the province Yunnan which it resides. It is bordered North by the Sichuan and Xikang provinces(and their respected warlords), to the west by the province of Burma(administrated by the British Raj), to the south by French Indochina, and to the East by the provinces of Guangxi and Guizhou(and their residing warlords). The province is geographically very mountainous and spans over an area of 152,124 mi² (244,820 km2).
The Yunnan province is considered to be the most ethnically diverse provinces in all of china just in front of Xinjiang. This is due to having a diverse ethnic native population which has been Sinicised over hundreds of years as well as various waves of ethnic Han migrating during the Yuan Dynasty.
