hawa

如题。一定要准确。我有个故事，等有了答案我再讲。

峨眉峰

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.

This 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.
+ Z8 S1 t4 t, l0 ?* t. N! V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.

/ E$ `8 p" q3 g0 cNation 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]
