We all know the hundred surnames, so what are all the surnames of the hundred surnames?

The Hundred Surnames is a traditional reading book that contains mainly the main surnames of China, costing in the early Northern Song Dynasty. It is said that there were originally just over four hundred, but later increased to over five hundred. The surnames in it, however, do not represent all the surnames in China, just some of the more populous ones. Many minority surnames, did not appear in it. And with the development of dynasties, the Hundred Surnames have not been consolidated many times, and the surnames in it rarely change.

1, all surnames

"The Hundred Surnames" is a four-syllable, although there is nothing in it, but the whole is still relatively rhyming.

? Zhao Qian Sun Li, Zhou Wu Zheng Wang. The first is the name of the family name, which is the same as the last name of the family name. The first is the first time I've been to a restaurant in the United States. The first is the one in which the person who is in the center of the room is the one who is in the center of the room. Chi Xie Zou Yu, Bashui Dou Zhang. Yun Su Pan Ge, Xi Fan Peng Lang. The first is the "Battle of the Bulge", which is the first of its kind in the United States.

Now that the Hundred Surnames is listed as one of the three traditional readings, many primary and secondary schools have begun to memorize it. On top of that, there is the Thousand Character Classic and the Three Character Classic. However, I personally feel that memorization is not very meaningful, and there is no point in deliberately memorizing the Hundred Surnames. The other two books, to a certain extent, have educational significance, but they are not entirely correct. It is best to study them in the company of a teacher, to discard the dross, so that students can better understand the contents. Only in this way can the traditional reading material be put to good use.

2, the sorting problem

Since there is a "Hundred Surnames", there have been people tangled in the order of the surnames inside. Personally, I think there are three main reasons for such sorting.

One is the book molding in the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Qian, Sun and Li four surnames on behalf of the Song Dynasty, Wu Yue, Zhengfei, the Southern Tang Dynasty four surnames, so ranked in the first four;

The second is a matter of number of people, ranked ahead of the common several surnames, basically, they have large populations, naturally, ranked in the front;

Third is the problem of rhyming, the content of the "Hundred Surnames" is very empty, and even without any literature. But it rhymes, and with that in mind, some of the surnames are definitely ahead.

3, Most Populated Surnames

There are two most populated surnames that have been in dispute for a long time. One is the Li surname and the other is the Wang surname. In the early days of surnames, the Li surname has always been ranked first, and this is also a recognized thing. However, with the census, people slowly realized that the Wang surname surpassed the Li surname. However, the development of surnames, every year will change greatly, the two surnames who ranked first, the truth is difficult to confirm.

What is certain, though, is that Li and Wang make up almost 15 percent of China's population. The other is Zhang, which is not far behind Li and Wang in terms of numbers. The three main surnames, almost each with a population close to 100 million.
