Starting from the very dawn of the Chinese civilization the Chinese referred themselves as the "people of the central planes", and later "of the Central Kingdom". After the powerful Han dynasty ruled China, the Demographics of China (at least the central parts) became dominant by the Chinese, who then referred to themselves as the Han. This was later changed to Tang, and even today China Town translated into Chinese means the "streets of Tang". During the Tang dynasty, the Chinese emperors were crowned as the Godly Khan, and enforced vassalage over many other countries. And thus the term "Divine Dynasty" became more popular. By the Qing dynasty (last dynasty), the official term used by the Imperial Government when trading with westerners is either "people of the divine dynasty or people of the central kingdom." EVEN TODAY the Chinese word for China still means Central Nation
