Zhuang Introduction __ "This work is a history of the most numerous of
the Chinese minority peoples, the Zhuang, from their earliest
antecedents to the end of the Sung dynasty. If we accept, as many do,
that the peoples known to the Vietnamese as the Nung and the Tai are, by
many standards, one people, then they are also the largest of the
Vietnamese minority peoples. If we also accept that they can be regarded
as one people with the Zhuang, as many agree, then it is probable that
this ethnic group is, after the Kurds, the largest of the world's
peoples who are not currently organized into their own national state."
A large statement indeed. You will find much more in this paper. - From

The Zhuang Peoples __ "The majority of the Zhuang live in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (90% in 1984), a province comparable in size to New Zealand. In 1984 in Nanning, its capital, 83,000 of the 500,000 persons living there were Zhuang while in the surrounding countryside they made up 80% of the population."
