The 2nd Part of the Research about the Relationships between Different Nationalities in the Southwest of China

The particular geographical situation and ecological environment of the Southwest China are the background and basis for the development of the relationships between different nationalities in this region. For the sake of production and living, these nationalities formed very close relationships among themselves, and even mixed together. In the research about the history of the relationships between the different nationalities, we must be aware that in different times the concept of nationality is different . The relationships between different nationalities in the southwest of China contain four basic parts: the relationship between the central government and the local governments of the minority nationalities, the relationship between one and another of the local governments of the minority nationalities, the relationship between the Han nationality and the minority nationalities, and the relationship among the minority nationalities themselves.
