China is home to 56 officially recognized ethnic groups, with the Han people as the absolute majority. Over their five thousand years of history, the Chinese people have developed a sense of common identity through creating and telling thousands of mythological stories about ethnic homogeneity. From Pangu to the marriage of Fuxi and Nüwa, these stories together play a critical part in gluing all the ethnic groups together into a great Chinese nation by dint of the cultural and spiritual values embedded therein. In The Myths That Made China, the author takes readers into the fascinating world of Chinese mythology, retelling the stories and analyzing their significance in fostering a coherent national identity.
