　　The Chinese nation is a huge family composed of 56 ethnic groups, all of whom, since ancient times, have labored, lived and multiplied on this vast land so as to offer their wit and might to the splendor of Chinese civilization and the construction of a unified multi-ethnic nation. The long-standing Chinese culture serves to maintain ethnic unity and national unification in a formidable manner.

As China’s economy and society grows, the Chinese civilization will surely display more vibrant vitality which answers to the call of the times.
