The relationship between Jin people and Manchu

Although they are all Jurchen, they should not be descendants of the rulers.

Jin Dynasty (1115-1234) was a feudal dynasty established by the nuzhen minority in China history to rule the northeast and north of China. At that time, the Jurchen people who came to the Central Plains were basically sinicized, and when they were later ruled by the Yuan Dynasty established by Mongols, they were all regarded as "Han people".

Later Manchu was a descendant of the Jurchen nationality who stayed in the northeast. Jurchen in Ming Dynasty is divided into three parts: Jianzhou, Haixi and Donghai Jurchen.

16 16, Nuhachi, Aisingiorro, set out to unify the tribes of Nuzhen and establish the post-Jin Dynasty. 1635, Huang taiji abolished the clan name of "Nuzhen" and renamed it "Manchuria", and put several ethnic groups living in the northeast of China, such as Jianzhou Nuzhen, Haixi Nuzhen, Savage Nuzhen, Han nationality, Mongolia, North Korea, Huerha and Soren, under the same clan name, thus forming Manchu.

Therefore, although the later Manchu and Jin people were both Jurchen, their lineages were not exactly the same.
