china is not a single ethnic nation ,in fact 56 ethnic groups

Deena

56 minority

轩辕无天

minority是少数民族的意思，汉族不是少数民族，所以，不能用这个词

我跟老外聊天时提起过，他们用的是nationalities.

' w3 z" Y, h) e4 |% k2 iThis guy just play with you in English word. If you don't like his game just tell him --go home check your F-English dictionary.  Do you know who said --Quebec is a nation.
" E1 O* ^* G% q; x- R加拿大土著--First Nations is a term of ethnicity that refers to the Aboriginal peoples in Canada who are neither Inuit nor Métis.

# F, ?- s& g. p% D" E# R6 RNation has different meanings in different contexts. In worldwide diplomacy, nation can mean country or sovereign state.[1] The United Nations, for instance, speaks of how it was founded after the Second World War with “51 countries” and currently has “192 member states”.[2] Nation may more broadly refer to a community of people who share a common territory and government—but who are not necessarily a sovereign state; and who often share a common language, race, descent, and/or history, such as the “Palestinian nation”.[1] The word nation can more specifically refer to a tribe of North American Indians, such as the Cherokee Nation.[1]
