What is the man in green?

Chuanqing people were called "Li Minzi" in the early days, also called "envy people" or "county people", and later called "Qing Chuan".

They are called "natives" because they have lived in the soil for a long time and are descendants of soldiers who conquered the south in the Ming Dynasty and local Turks. "So they think that they are different from the local Han people. Traditional costumes are still blue, and Mandarin spoken by Guizhou people is widely used. After liberation, Chuanqing people demanded that they be recognized as ethnic minorities.

For example, Qing Chuan in Guizhou and Liu Jia in Guangxi. (See "On the Identification of China Nationalities" 1978 by Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference Ethnic Affairs Committee in September) Chuanqing people are an "unidentified nationality" mainly distributed in the northwest of Guizhou where people are relatively concentrated.

Extended data:

In some areas, "Chuanqing people" are also called "Li Minzi". They don't have their own proper names, and sometimes they are also called "Dajiaozi". The name "Qing Chuan" is mainly used to distinguish it from what the Han people call "Chuanlan", which first appeared in the literature records of the Qing Dynasty.

Local ethnic minorities don't call it "wearing green", but add adjectives before the names of Han people, such as Bai Han, Bigfoot Han, Shoudan Han, Buckwheat Eating Han, Big Sleeved Han and Local Han.

Chuanqing people are mainly distributed in more than 20 counties in Bijie, Anshun, Liupanshui, southwestern Guizhou and southern Guizhou.
