Extended data

The origin of Han names:

Officially known as the Han nationality began in the Jin Dynasty. The Jin Dynasty was the first minority regime to really occupy the Central Plains. In order to facilitate the distinction, they collectively referred to people under the Song regime as "Han people".

The Yuan Dynasty inherited this title, but there was some confusion in concept. They divided the people under their rule into four classes: Mongolian, Semu, Han and southerner. "Han people" include Han people living in the north, Khitan people, Jurchen Koreans and so on. "Nanren" refers to the adherents of the Southern Song Dynasty, but they are actually "Han people". Manchu is another minority in the Central Plains, and they still call the people under the Ming government Han Chinese.

Because the Mongolians in the Yuan Dynasty and the Manchu in the Qing Dynasty both have their own languages and characters, the languages and characters used by the Han people are called "Han" and "Chinese characters", and the study of the phonology of Chinese characters and the textual research of ancient Chinese is called "Sinology".
