Explanation: The Han people are the largest ethnic group in China, accounting for 91.6%. The name "Han" comes from the Han Dynasty, a short-lived successor to the Qin Dynasty that unified China. The Han dynasty was seen as the culmination of Chinese civilization, capable of extending its power and influence into Central and Northeast Asia and comparable to the Roman Empire in population and territory. earth.
