Minnan people, Guangfu people and Hakka people, how to distinguish these three types of people, and from what historical year?

According to your question, I think it should be aimed at Guangdong, because at present only Guangdong has these three kinds of people at the same time. At present, there are three major ethnic groups in Guangdong, namely Guangfu, Chaoshan (also known as Minnan and Fulao) and Hakka. The most direct way to distinguish the three is language, because the languages of these three nationalities can be distinguished intuitively.

Guangfu people are Guangfu people. Cantonese people in a narrow sense refer to "Guangfu people" in spoken language, that is, Han people who live in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hong Kong, Macao, Southeast Asia, Europe, America, Australia and other regions with Cantonese as their mother tongue and Zhuji Lane as their ethnic identity. Broadly speaking, Guangfu clans include Cantonese-speaking Chinese clans in Guangdong and other parts of the world. The term "Guangfu" first appeared in the Tang Dynasty. This guy upstairs said that the foundation is the 500,000 people who moved in the Qin Dynasty.

Minnan people, in a narrow sense, refer to people who use Fujian-Taiwan Minnan dialect in southern Fujian, and they are talking about Minnan immigrants from the southern coast of Fujian, Taiwan Province Province, Hong Kong Nanyang and other parts of the world. In a broad sense, Minnan people include Chaoshan people, users of Minnan dialect in southern Zhejiang, Leizhou dialect, Hainan dialect and Zhongshan dialect, but in a narrow or broad sense, Minnan people have all moved out of the descendants of Minnan natives, and most of them no longer call themselves "Minnan people". In southern China, Taiwan Province Province, parts of Malaysia (such as Penang and Johor Bahru), Singapore and other places, Minnan people are the local dominant ethnic groups. Minnan clans have made great achievements in commerce, academics, navigation and colonization. The formation of Minnan ethnic group began in the Qin and Han Dynasties, and a large number of Han people poured into Quanzhou in May 4th, making Quanzhou the largest port in the world in the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties. Quanzhou has always been the center city for the migration of Han businessmen and nobles. In order to control the maritime trade, these people colonized the southeast coast of China. The coastal areas of Guangdong and Zhejiang were not originally the centers of Han migration, but the local Fujian ethnic group was a mixture of Minnan colonists and local Baiyue people to varying degrees. For example, eastern Guangdong was originally the settlement of She nationality, Hainan was originally the settlement of Li nationality, Fujian people were colonists, and most of the genes of Han nationality were in the coastal areas of Fujian. There are still 65,438+00%-35% Baiyue gene residues in Fujian cities along the coast of Guangdong and Zhejiang. At present, there are three Minnan languages in Guangdong, namely Chaoshan, Shanwei, southern Fengshun and Leizhou Peninsula.

Hakkas, Hakkas are an important ethnic group of the Han nationality in Lingnan. Hakkas do not refer to what we usually call overseas guests, but an important ethnic group that has lived in Lingnan for thousands of years, which is relative to Guangfu and Chaoshan ethnic groups. Hakka clan was formed later than Guangfu clan and Chaoshan clan, but Hakka came to Guangdong no later than the other two clans. The earliest settlers in Heyuan, Huizhou and other places in Guangdong were Hakka ancestors who merged some primitive ethnic groups in the area. Hakka is distributed in Guangdong, Fujian, Guangxi, Jiangxi, Taiwan Province and other places, with Guangdong Province having the largest population, accounting for nearly one third of the local ethnic groups in Guangdong. Hakka ancestors originated in the Central Plains and Lingnan, and finally formed in Lingnan. At present, the Hakkas in Guangdong are mainly distributed in Meizhou (known as the Hakka capital of the world, and more than 95% of them are Hakkas), Heyuan, Huizhou, Yingde, Wengyuan and Huazhou. Hakkas first came into being in the Qin Dynasty. On the one hand, they moved south because of the war, on the other hand, they stayed in Gannan generation because of the construction of Epang Palace. The locals call them "Hakkas".

The three local ethnic groups in Guangdong (Guangfu, Chaoshan and Hakka) are all assimilated by the earliest Lingnan aborigines and Baiyue. Therefore, the appearance is not easy to distinguish, most of them are thick lips and flat noses (joking), and there are a large number of marriages and flows between the three ethnic groups. Mainly depends on culture. To give the most direct and simple way to distinguish, we might as well express our personal views in a general way: Guangfu people like to drink old fire soup for home cooking, Minnan people like to talk about business with tea, and Hakka people like to study and want to be an official.
