Question 1: What is the most populous surname in the world? 20 points The surname Li is the most populous surname in the world. The surname Li ranks 4th in "Hundred Family Surnames". It is the second most populous surname in mainland China in 2007. However, according to the National Citizen Identity Information System (NCIIS) of the household registration management department, the surname Li is the third most common surname. In North Korea and Vietnam, the surname Lee is also a common surname. In North Korea, the surname Lee is the second most common surname.
In order to distinguish the surname Li from other surnames with the same sound, it is often called "Shibazi Li" or "Muzi Li". According to an article on "surnames" published by Chinese historian Li Dongming in "Oriental Magazine" in 1977, the surname Li is one of the top ten Chinese surnames in the world.
According to statistics, the total number of people surnamed Li exceeds 100 million, accounting for more than 7.19% of China's total population. Henan Province is the province with the largest number of people with the surname Li in China.
Question 2: Ranking of the number of people with surnames in the world. The three largest surnames in the country: Li, Wang, and Zhang
Associate researcher at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences After years of research, Yuan Yida found that the three largest surnames in the country are Li, Wang, and Zhang, accounting for 7.9%, 7.4%, and 7.1% of the total population respectively. The total population of the three major surnames reaches 270 million, making them the three largest groups of people with the same surname in the world.
Yuan Yida obtained this national surname data based on the sampling data of the third census of the National Bureau of Statistics, based on equidistant sampling based on the proportion of the population in various places, and strictly in accordance with statistical principles.
According to Yuan Yida’s research results, among the 100 common surnames in contemporary China, 87% of the country’s population is concentrated. Among them, there are 19 surnames accounting for more than 1% of the national population, namely Li, Wang, Zhang, Liu, Chen, Yang, Zhao, Huang, Zhou, Wu, Xu, Sun, Hu, Zhu, Gao, Lin, He, Guo and Ma. Historically, about half of China's population has been concentrated in these 19 people with the same surname.
In addition, the regional distribution of people with the same surname in China is also uneven. In the northern region, the surname Wang is the most common surname, accounting for approximately 9.9% of the population, followed by Li, Zhang, and Liu; in the southern region, the surname Chen is the most common surname, accounting for approximately 10.6% of the population, followed by Li, Huang, Lin, and Zhang; in the Yangtze River Basin, a transitional area between north and south, the most common surname is Li, accounting for about 7% of the population, followed by Wang, Zhang, Chen, and Liu.
Yuan Yida discovered that in every province and region in my country, there are some surnames that appear much more frequently than in other provinces and regions. For example, the surnames Liang and Luo in Guangdong, Liang and Lu in Guangxi, Zheng in Fujian, Cai in Taiwan, Wang in Anhui, Xu and Zhu in Jiangsu, Mao and Shen in Zhejiang, Hu and Liao in Jiangxi, Hubei Hu's surname, Tan's surname in Hunan, He and Deng's surnames in Sichuan, Wu's surname in Guizhou, Yang's surname in Yunnan, Cheng's surname in Henan, Gao's surname in Gansu, Wan's surname in Ningxia, Xue's surname in Shaanxi, and Bao's surname in Qinghai , the surname Ma in Xinjiang, the surname Kong in Shandong, the surname Dong and Guo in Shanxi, the surname Pan in Inner Mongolia, and the surname Yu in the three northeastern provinces.
Yuan Yida said: "The surnames and distribution of Chinese people are a unique national condition of China. It will involve the origin of the Chinese nation, the distribution of genetic resources left by our ancestors, and today's root-searching and development at home and abroad. The unification of the country, future population development trends and many other issues are of great significance."
The new order is: Li, Wang, Zhang, Liu, Chen, Yang, Huang, Zhao, Zhou, Wu, Xu. , Sun, Zhu, Ma, Hu, Guo, Lin, He, Gao, Liang, Zheng, Luo, Song, Xie, Tang, Han, Cao, Xu, Deng, Xiao, Feng, Zeng, Cheng, Cai, Peng, Pan , Yuan, Yu, Dong, Yu, Su, Ye, Lu, Wei, Jiang, Tian, ??Du, Ding, Shen, Jiang, Fan, Jiang, Fu, Zhong, Lu, Wang, Dai, Cui, Ren, Lu, Liao , Yao, Fang, Jin, Qiu, Xia, Tan, Wei, Jia, Zou, Shi, Xiong, Meng, Qin, Yan, Xue, Hou, Lei, Bai, Long, Duan, Hao, Kong, Shao, Shi, Mao , Chang, Wan,
Question 3: What is the largest surname in the world and the surname with the largest number of people? Recently, major media have reported that according to the latest research statistics of relevant experts As a result, the three largest surnames in the country are Li, Wang, and Zhang, accounting for 7.9%, 7.4%, and 7.1% of the total population respectively. The total population of these three surnames is 270 million, making them the three largest groups of people with the same surname in the world. There are as many as 22,000 surnames used by Chinese people.
So, how are these data calculated? How many interesting and secret facts can we interpret among Chinese surnames?
In order to learn more about the stories behind this statistics on surnames and better interpret Chinese surnames, our reporter specially researched this topic - the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences Associate Researcher Yuan Yida conducted an exclusive interview.
■Surnames can be used to explore certain phenomena in a country
According to Yuan Yida, surnames are a kind of mark. In biological research, it can be used to explore certain phenomena in a country. But it has not received enough attention from people for a long time. The study of surnames seems to be a marginal subject on the surface, but in fact it is an excellent cultural heritage of our country. Sixteen years ago, in 1984, Yuan Yida, who graduated from the Department of Biology of Peking University with a major in biochemistry, was already working at the Institute of Genetics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. At this time, a professor named Cavalli Sforza from Stanford University in the United States suggested to the Institute of Genetics that they cooperate with each other to conduct research on Chinese surnames. At the Institute of Genetics at that time, many people knew that Yuan Yida had always had a strong interest in people's surnames. Coupled with his professional background in population genetic research, the institute decided to let him conduct this research. Facing this new field, Yuan Yida discovered after in-depth research: Chinese surnames are really interesting.
■Chinese surnames are the best research object for surname studies
The study of surnames is a science. The Chinese surnames are the best research object in surname studies. Chinese surnames reflect the traces and transmission process of thousands of years of evolution of Chinese society. No other country or nation in the world has as long a history as the Chinese nation, with a history of more than five thousand years. This kind of civilization, which is passed down from generation to generation, is the most consistent with the laws of genetics. In addition, because Chinese people have always had a strong sense of clan, people with the same surname and the same blood relationship tend to live together. "This is why there are so many Zhangjiazhuang and Lijiazhuang on the map of China." Yuan Yida said.
■Statistics are very rigorous and scientific
In 1983, my country conducted a nationwide census. Relevant sampling data from the 1986 census were compiled. Based on relevant information and data, Yuan Yida began to conduct statistical research on my country's surnames. In 1987, Yuan Yida calculated that there were 12,000 to 13,000 surnames in China. In the same year, news that the Chinese Academy of Sciences was conducting research on surnames was widely spread by some media. On May 2, 1987, Yuan Yida made public the top 100 surnames in the surname statistics, which were called the "New Hundred Family Surnames". Among the "New Hundreds of Surnames", "Li, Wang, and Zhang" rank among the top three. Over the next dozen years, research on surnames continued non-stop. "It is not easy to inherit these big surnames in our country. For example, during the Yuan Dynasty, in order to maintain the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, someone once suggested to Emperor Yuan Shun that all the people with the top five surnames should be killed. Fortunately, the Yuan Dynasty Emperor Shun hesitated repeatedly and did not take action, which allowed the people with these surnames to escape a great disaster, and thus allowed these surnames to be passed down to this day," Yuan Yida told reporters.
■Fortune telling by surname is nonsense
At present, many people want to know more about their surname, especially the origin of their family. Yuan Yida suggested to them that the most direct way is to find their own family tree. In any case, family tree, as a unique highlight in our country's traditional culture, is the most authoritative record in this regard. If you can't find your family tree, you can look for some information about your surname. You can even learn about the origins of other families with the same surname as yours, and maybe you can find some clues from them. There are many books on surnames on the market now, you may wish to use them as a reference.
At present, there are people in society who specifically use surnames to tell fortunes. Yuan Yida said: "These are nonsense and have nothing to do with our traditional culture and scientific statistics. It is impossible to predict future destiny using so-called surnames and first names. I hope everyone will not blindly believe it."
■Can inspire more patriotism among Chinese at home and abroad
Regarding the research on surnames, Yuan Yida told reporters that this research will be of great help to many people, especially overseas Chinese, in tracing their roots.
