Chinese Tatars

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Chinese Tatars (塔塔尔族 Tǎtǎěrzú) form one of the 56 ethnic groups officially recognized by the People's Republic of China. Their ancestors are Volga Tatar tradesmen who settled mostly in Xinjiang.

Note that the Chinese had often used the term Tatars or Tazi/Dazi in Chinese in a derogatory manner to generalize non-Han groups from the North^{[citation needed]}, such as the Mongols and Jurchens/Manchus especially during periods where China was invaded by these groups, for example during the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.
