Map: Chinese dispora
Here is a map of Chinese dispora based on Nationmaster (click to see detailed data table).
- Nationmaster's coloring scheme is not very good. But I do know the graphic/flash skill to improve it
- Overseas Chinese dispora probably only counted Han populations. I am not sure how ethnic minorities such as Bai are accounted for. (Korean Chinese who emigrated most probably identify themselves as Korean). But the numbers will not change significantly.
- mainland China has 1.3bn, Taiwan 23M, HK 7M, Macau 0.5M were not charted here
- Russia has about 100k, but for unknown reason it is not charted by Nationmaster.

Very nice map, I am surprised there are no Chinese in Greenland though.
Greenland, good question:)
blame nationmaster :)
Thanks Sun Bin. Very interesting! I had no idea there were as many as 100+k Chinese in India.
You certainly can't tell from what is labelled as Chinese food in India!:)
India is a large country.
I guess the second graph (% pop) reflects the visibility better.
A table from different source/time.
another table
sooo coooool
you card is wrong, in Taiwan there are only 5% of Chinese, all the other inhabitants are culture mixed (whatever they are from Chinese ethnics origin or not). Read Taiwan history again to see that from 13 aboriginal tribes, at least 2 vanished only by assimilation. You will then see that Dutch, French, Spanish, Germans, Japanese and multiple other countries occupied Taiwan since 16th century. For the 49ers ( CKS soldiers), most of them where male ( as in soldiers) and as gay don't have yet faculty to give birth, they had to chose to marry local people. Since Taiwan is way more open to foreign wedding than China, South Asian, Europeans, Americans ( north and south), Koreans, Japanese and many other foreign spouses live in Taiwan and had kids.
So Taiwan is far away to be 100% Chinese ( even Chinese ethnic in the very strict term as aboriginal have Polynesians, Austronesian or Malaysian origins)
Anyway, thks for trying...
anon,
don't fabricate argument with no fact behnid. give us numbers. the aborigines represent less than 1% of the population. mainly displaced chinese immigrants from 1600-1945, and again post 1949.
