Hmong People
The Hmong people ( RPA: , CHV: ''Hmôngz'', Nyiakeng Puachue: , Pahawh Hmong: , , zh, c=苗族蒙人) are an indigenous group in East Asia and Southeast Asia. In China, the Hmong people are classified as a sub-group of the Miao people. The modern Hmong reside mainly in Southwestern China and Mainland Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and Myanmar. There are also diaspora communities in the United States, Australia, France, and South America. Etymology The term ''Hmong'' is the English pronunciation of the Hmong's native name. It is a singular and plural noun (e.g., Japanese, French, etc.). Very little is known about the native Hmong name as it is not mentioned in Chinese historical records, since the Han identified the Hmong as Miao. The meaning of it is debatable and no one is sure of its origin, although it can be traced back to several provinces in China. However, Hmong Americans and Hmong Laotians often associate it with "Free" and/or "Hmoov ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Mong, Punjab
Mong or Mung (مونگ ) is a village and Union Council of Mandi Bahauddin District in the Punjab province of Pakistan. History According to Alexander Cunningham, Mong was built on the ancient city of Nicaea which was founded by Alexander the Great in commemoration of his victory over Porus in the Battle of the Hydaspes. However, the ruins of the city of Nicea have not been found yet, not least because the landscape has changed somewhat.P. H. L. Eggermont, ''Alexander's campaign in Southern Punjab'' (1993). The 1910 edition of ''Encyclopædia Britannica'' cited Mong as the location of Nicaea, but the latest edition does not state this. According to '' The Imperial Gazetteer of India'': "The overthrow of the Bactrians by the Parthians in the latter half of the second century brought another change of rulers, and the coins of the Indo-Scythian king Maues (c. 120 BCE), who is known to local tradition as Raja Moga, have been found at Mong". At the end of the first century CE ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
