Comment on the Ethnic Interactivities during the Qin and Han Dynasties

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, China was a unified multi-ethnic nation. Each ethnic group had enjoyed great development and ethnic exchanges had reached a higher stage. However, ethnic tension was still there. Particularly the conflicts between the Han and the Xiongnu and the conflicts between the Han and the Yue reflected the protruding problems of ethnic relations then. Meanwhile, it must be noted that ethnic separation and ethnic reunion has greatly promoted the formation of the Chinese nation and provided new sustenance for the development of the Han ethnic group.
