The Yao people (its majority branch is as well known equally Mien; simplified Chinese: 瑶族; traditional Chinese: 瑤族; pinyin: Yáozú ; Vietnamese: người Dao) is a government classification for various minorities in Communist china and Vietnam.

They also form one of the 54 ethnic groups officially recognised by Vietnam. In Prc in the last census in 2000, they numbered 2,637,421 and in Vietnam census in 2019, they numbered 891,151.[1]
History [edit]
Early history [edit]
The origins of the Yao can be traced dorsum 2000 years starting in Hunan. The Yao and Hmong were among the rebels during the Miao Rebellions against the Ming dynasty. As the Han Chinese expanded into Due south China, the Yao retreated into the highlands betwixt Hunan and Guizhou to the north and Guangdong and Guangxi to the southward, and stretching into Eastern Yunnan.[2] Around 1890, the Guangdong government started taking action confronting Yao in Northwestern Guangdong.[3]
The first Chinese exonym for "Yao people" was the graphic debasing yao 猺 (犭"canis familiaris radical" and yao 䍃 phonetic) "jackal", with twentieth-century reforms this was changed to yao: "precious jade".
Laotian Civil War [edit]
During the Laotian Ceremonious State of war, the Yao tribes of Lao people's democratic republic had a good human relationship with U.S. forces and were dubbed to exist an "efficient friendly force". They fought in favour of the (South Vietnamese) government against the communists.[4] This relationship caused the new communist Laotian government to target Yao tribal groups for revenge in one case the war was over. This triggered farther clearing into Thailand, where the tribes would be put into camps along the Thailand-Lao people's democratic republic edge.
Clearing to the United States [edit]
Afterward obtaining refugee condition from the Thai regime and with the help of the United Nations, many Yao people were able to obtain sponsorship into the United States (although many remain in Thailand). About of the Yao who have immigrated to the Us take settled along the Western part of the U.S., mainly in Central and Northern California such as Visalia, Oakland, Oroville, Redding, Richmond, Sacramento, but as well in parts of Oregon like Portland, Salem, and Beaverton besides as the state of Washington in Seattle and Renton. See Mien American for those identified equally Mien.
Culture, social club, and economy [edit]

Yao club is traditionally patrilineal, with sons inheriting from their fathers. The Yao follow patrilocal residence.[5]
The Yao people accept been farmers for over a 1000 years, generally rice tillage through plowing, although a few practice slash-and-burn agriculture. Where the Yao live nearby forested regions, they also engage in hunting.[5]
During the Southern Vocal (1127–1279), an majestic Chinese observer, Zhou Qufei, described the Yao as wearing distinctive fine bluish clothing produced using indigo.[6]
The Yao celebrate their Pan Wang (Rex Pan) festival annually on the sixteenth day of the tenth lunar month. The festival celebrates the mythical original story of the Yao people, and has evolved "into a happy holiday for the Yao to gloat a expert harvest and worship their ancestors."[vii]
Religion [edit]
Daoism has historically been important to the Yao.[eight] Jinag Yingliang, in a 1948 study, argued that Yao organized religion was characterized past (1) a process of Han Chinese-influenced Daoisation (Chinese: 道教化; pinyin: Dàojiào huà ); (two) the endurance of pre-Daoist folk organized religion; and (3) some Buddhist beliefs.
The description of Yao faith is similar to the definition of Chinese folk faith as described by Arthur Wolf and Steve Sangren.[9] Scholar Zhang Youjun takes issue with claims of "strong Buddhist influence" on the Yao, arguing that "although Yao ritual texts contain Buddhist expression, the Yao do not believe in Buddhism at all. They are resolutely Taoist."[9]

Written languages [edit]
After 1982, the Guangxi Nationality Institute and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences together created a new Yao writing system which was unified with the research results of the Yao-American scholar Yuēsè Hòu (Traditional Chinese: 約瑟·候/Simplified Chinese: 约瑟·候). The writing system was finalized in 1984 in Ruyuan Canton( Chinese characters: 乳源瑤族自治縣）, Guangdong, which included Chinese professors Pan Chengqian (盤承乾/盘承乾), Deng Fanggui (鄧方貴/邓方贵), Liu Baoyuan (劉保元/刘保元), Su Defu (蘇德富/苏德富) and Yauz Mengh Borngh; Chinese government officials; Mien Americans Sengfo Chao (Zhao Fuming), Kao Chiem Chao (Zhao Youcai), and Chua Meng Chao; David T. Lee.
American linguist Herbert C. Purnell developed a curriculum and workshop presentations on language learning in Eastward and Southeast Asia, besides as Yao Seng Deng from Thailand. The Usa delegation took the new writing system to the Iu Mien community in the United states where it was adopted with a vote of 78 to 7 by a conference of Mien American community leaders.[vi] This writing arrangement based on the Latin alphabet was designed to exist pan-dialectal; it distinguishes 30 syllable initials, 121 syllable finals and eight tones.
For an example of how the unified alphabet is used to write Iu Mien, a mutual Yao language, see Iu Mien linguistic communication.
At that place is a separate written standard for Bunu, since it is from the Hmong/Miao side, rather than the Mien/Yao side, of the Miao–Yao language family.
Some people think that a variety of Yao is, or was, written in Nüshu, an ethnic script in Southern part of Hunan Province in China. Only this connection between Yao linguistic communication and Nüshu is disputed, considering Nüshu more likely recorded local Chinese dialect which might be likewise known by Yao people in Hunan.
Officially illiteracy and semi-literacy amidst the Yao in China still stood at twoscore.6% in 2002.[27]
