china is not a single ethnic nation ,in fact 56 ethnic groups

Deena

56 minority

轩辕无天

minority是少数民族的意思，汉族不是少数民族，所以，不能用这个词

我跟老外聊天时提起过，他们用的是nationalities.

/ l# `( c$ K+ M/ x接着他问："China has 50 nations, is that true?"
我当时把nations理解为民族（不怕您见笑），所以我答："yes, even more."
% h7 E* D3 q4 D1 b; m0 o紧接着这黑人说，"Do u know what nation mean? it means country."

他看我怒了，不停滴sorry，sorry，然后滚蛋了。

This guy just play with you in English word. If you don't like his game just tell him --go home check your F-English dictionary.  Do you know who said --Quebec is a nation.

2 [+ z2 L2 j' m. f; l! H3 W6 f6 ]Nation has different meanings in different contexts. In worldwide diplomacy, nation can mean country or sovereign state.[1] The United Nations, for instance, speaks of how it was founded after the Second World War with “51 countries” and currently has “192 member states”.[2] Nation may more broadly refer to a community of people who share a common territory and government—but who are not necessarily a sovereign state; and who often share a common language, race, descent, and/or history, such as the “Palestinian nation”.[1] The word nation can more specifically refer to a tribe of North American Indians, such as the Cherokee Nation.[1]
