The history of China people emigrating overseas;

In the first period, from the Tang Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty (6 18- 1270), overseas Chinese gradually appeared. During this period, China's feudal commodity economy was quite developed, but Southeast Asia was still relatively backward, so many Chinese businessmen went to Southeast Asia to engage in trade. Some of them settled down locally and became the first generation of overseas Chinese. Most of the overseas Chinese in this period lived in Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines and other countries in Southeast Asia today, with a population of about 65,438+10,000.

The second period, from Yuan Dynasty to the middle of Qing Dynasty (127 1- 1840), was a period when overseas Chinese went abroad in large numbers and their social and economic foundation in the host country was gradually established. During this period, the opening of the maritime ban in Ming Dynasty promoted the further development of overseas trade. Some parts of Southeast Asia have become colonies or trade relay places of western countries, and are in urgent need of cheap labor and handicrafts from China.

Therefore, it attracts more China businessmen and bankrupt farmers, fishermen and craftsmen to go abroad. In addition, Zheng He, the eunuch of the Ming Dynasty, led a fleet of more than 20,000 people to visit more than 30 countries and regions in Asia and Africa, which enhanced the friendship between China and Asian and African countries and created better conditions for China people to go abroad for business and immigration. During this period, from Japan and Korea in the east, to the east coast of India in the west, to the upper reaches of Irrawaddy River in Myanmar in the north, and to Indonesia in the south, overseas Chinese can be seen almost everywhere, with a population of over 6,543,800.
