Exploring ancient tribes of the 21st century

Which tribe do you belong to?

Since arriving in China I've been amazed to find out just how many ethnic groups there are in this enormous country.

Of course, I'd always known that there were some diverse regions in China and a few different languages. Most of the Chinese I encountered in the United Kingdom - usually when I was ordering food, I have to admit - were Cantonese. They spoke a different language from the Mandarin used by the people I'm meeting now in Beijing.
