People & SocietyEthnicityEthnicity Map of ChinaEthnic Map of China56 different ethnic groups are officially recognized in China91.51% of Chinese people are Han Chinese. There is another ethnic group, Zhuang, which has over 1% of the population. Other ethnic groups are growing faster than the main Han Chinese. However, due to the massive dominance of the Han Chinese, the ethnic composition of China would not be drastically changed. Ethnicity is not a problem in China, as the Chinese government has implemented a number of policy measures to ensure the equality and unity of ethnic groups. A policy of regional autonomy was granted to ethnic minorities, decentralizing governance to peripheral regions. With the help of the Chinese government, minorities have the right to manage their own affairs. The government also promotes respect for the different beliefs and customs of different ethnic groups, working towards a prosperous China living in harmony.

Confucianism and Taoism, along with Buddhism, constitute what are known as the “Three Teachings,” philosophical frameworks that have historically played an important role in shaping Chinese culture. The bases of these three beliefs are commonly incorporated into traditional popular religions. Chinese religions are family-oriented and practicing multiple beliefs at the same time is permitted.ChinaReligion©MigrationMigration in China is divided into two categories: internal and international. Internal migrationPeople leave their rural towns to migrate to urban capitals, in search of jobs. People living in rural areas may also have difficult living conditions...... middle of paper ....... In rural areas, children suffer from basic health problems and malnutrition. They suffer from diseases such as iron deficiency anemia and intestinal worms, due to the lack of nutrition from the foods they eat and the poor hygienic conditions in which they live. Untreated water in rural areas also leads to health problems such as hepatitis A, rotavirus and enterovirus. Mental health is also a growing problem in China, as failure to fulfill one's duties within family and society can lead to common symptoms of psychological distress. This is a major concern because the social and economic costs are enormous. Currently, care for the mentally ill is insufficient, with incidents such as the escape of 42 psychiatric patients. Mental illness is also portrayed in a negative light in Chinese media, even though they don't discriminate too much against the mentally ill..
