The word "China" is closely related to "Huaxia", so what is "Huaxia" first? What is the "Chinese nation"?

What is "China"? Why is it called "Chinese nation" in modern times?

China people should study where they come from. Huaxia, Baidu Encyclopedia is relatively accurate at present. It is the earliest explanation of Huaxia in the later Zuozhuan since the official records such as Historical Records and Chunqiu Zuozhuan: "China has a big gift, so it is called Xia; There is the beauty of service seal, which is called China. " And the evolutionary history of Chinese characters goes far beyond this! During the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the words "Hua" and "Xia" appeared in Oracle Bone Inscriptions.

The earliest Oracle Bone Inscriptions and bronze inscriptions in Xia Dynasty originated from the worship of "the sun". In summer, the sun rises and the birds fall. A bird is the image of the sun, with big eyes and three feathers. The sun is the sun. Some characters in early summer have typical characteristics of three-feather sun. So the earliest civilization in China is the civilization that worships the sun! Chinese characters originated from "Fusang Shenshu" and "vegetation is China". It takes the shape of a three-layer trident tree, connecting the gods in the upper part and the world in the lower part. It is the sacred tree of the universe, the tree of the sun god and the resting place of the sun god of the universe. The hibiscus tree represented by Huawei and the golden sun represented by Xia together constitute the Chinese people's worship of the sun, which is the worship and awe of the cosmic sun god. Huaxia people were the earliest people who worshipped the sun, and even established the earliest ancient city, the capital of Xia Dynasty and Yangcheng. Huaxia nation, the nation that worshiped the sun in the early days! China, also refers to sunshine, generally refers to the brilliance of the sun and the moon. Chinese people respect Huawei and worship the sun and the universe, because everything in the world bathes in sunshine and life multiplies. After the world, because of the sacred tree, it refers to vegetation, "vegetation is China", generally refers to plants, and refers to plant essence. Later, from "flower" to "flower" and then to "flower", it represents flowering herbs, flowers and buds, and generally refers to all beautiful things. In the Zhou Dynasty, "Huashan" meant the sacred mountain of the sun. In the Zhou dynasty, Huashan was regarded as a sacred mountain, "the week of Huashan", and Hua also referred to Huashan. Until the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States Period and the Pre-Qin Period, Confucianism prevailed in the world. Confucian sages changed "Hua" to "Washington" in his works, and adopted a cultural meaning of a country of etiquette. "Zuo Zhushu": "China has a big gift, so it is called Xia; There is the beauty of service seal, which is called China. " Hua refers to etiquette, splendor, splendor and prosperity. Hua, which represents the vassal state of the Central Plains with a state of etiquette, is different from the foreigners represented by Yi. The ancients said: "Too clear and purple, flying and dying; Too clear Danhua, flying to protect life. Too clear and too green, flying fairy refining god; The supernatant is pure, fly to zero, and refined; Be proud of the outside, and be refined inside; The environment is decorated with wonderful flowers, connecting the preceding with the following; The success of going to China is called China. " China, at first, refers to the glory of the sun and the moon, and later generally refers to perfection, reunion, unity and unification. In the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, taking the territory of the seven countries as the boundary, and called it "China", which meant the complete unification of "China", and called it "Huaxia" nation for the people of the seven countries, so as to distinguish it from the Yi people. In the Western Han Dynasty, the Huns collectively referred to the Chinese people in China as "Han people". Zuo Zhuan: "I don't want summer, I don't want China chaos." During the Qin and Han Dynasties, "if you commit crimes against China, you will be punished far away." At this point, the appellations of China and Huaxia have been unified and passed down through the ages. Chinese civilization is Chinese civilization with a long history. Chinese civilization has a long history. Just like the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, it is a civilization in which China people explore the sun, the universe and human life endlessly. (personal opinion discussion, access to ancient literature sharing, looking forward to archaeological evidence to prove! )

Therefore, in ancient times, China specifically referred to China and China specifically referred to the Chinese nation.

Go to Chen Shou's Biography of the Three Kingdoms and Zhuge Liang in the Western Jin Dynasty: "If you travel to China." Refers to the Central Plains where Cao Cao and Guo Wei are located. The Eastern Jin Dynasty constant temperature "Please Return the Capital to Luoyang": "My husband started with the king, proclaimed the sacred house, painted Kyushu, and made nine clothes. In summer, when you are sincerely in the city, first frost will be subdued, crowned the world and live in the four seas. Self-reliant Hu Ling, China's turmoil, chaos and loss of evidence, the right to win, succumbing to the meeting of Longyan, and storm warning are not reasons for winning. " Refers to the land of China after the unification of Wei Shuwu in the Western Jin Dynasty. Wu Ji of the Tang Dynasty wrote in Shu Fa: "Han people, China also. I was taught by the king and belonged to China. Dressed in dignity and accustomed to filial piety, it is called China. " This means that all administrative divisions and cultural systems belonging to China are called China. Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's Imperial Decree of the Central Plains: "Since ancient times, emperors have ruled the world, living in China to control foreigners and living abroad to serve China. It is unheard of for Yidi to live in China and control the world. Since Song moved, Yuan entered China, and within four seas, he failed to submit. At this time, the fate of heaven is circulating, and the Central Plains is full of vitality, one trillion trillion trillion. Saints were born, Land Rover was expelled, China was restored and Chen Ji was established to help the people. Cover my people in China, and God will order my people in China to live in peace. What can I do to cure them? " China refers to the land where the Chinese nation has been living, and it is also the land laid by successive dynasties in China.

In modern times, why was the whole country called "Chinese nation" since the Republic of China? Of course, it is because "Huaxia" refers to the Han nationality since ancient times, and after the overthrow of Manchu in the Republic of China, Sun Yat-sen "expelled the Tatars and restored China". Governing the country under the Three People's Principles emphasizes the equality of the whole nation, hence the title "Chinese nation"! "Republic of China" is a country founded by the Chinese nation, referred to as "Republic of China" for short. Then the people of China and People's Republic of China (PRC) liberated the whole of China, realizing the great unity of 56 nationalities in China for the first time, so they inherited and continued the title of "China", which means 56 nationalities in China. People's Republic of China (PRC) is also referred to as "China". (It has been called "China" since the ancient Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties. It is the vast country of the central government, the kingdom of kingship and the country of the son of heaven. It is surrounded by princes such as Zhu Xia, and foreigners such as Siyi live in the remote wilderness outside China. With the national integration, the scope of China has gradually expanded to the same scope as that of China, and China is China. At this point, China is China, China is China, and China is China.

This is the historical allusion of "China".
