The Han people, one of the largest ethnic groups in China today, derive their name from the Han Dynasty (206 BCE – 220 CE), which was a significant period in Chinese history marked by cultural and political advancements. This dynasty established a strong centralized state and promoted Confucianism, shaping Chinese identity and society. The term "Han" became synonymous with the dominant culture and people of China, as the dynasty's influence solidified the cultural and historical legacy of the Han people.
