The Miao are a linguistically and culturally related group of people recognized by the government of the People's Republic of China as one of the 55 official minority groups. The Miao is divided to two parts, one called Raw Miao, living primarily in southeast and northeast of Guizhou Province, northwest of Hunan Province, whose culture hasn’t been affected by Han Chinese’s. This region wasn’t included in Chinese territory until Ming Dynasty. The Ming government resorted to force several times in order to control it. The government even built great wall in South China to limit Miao people’s living area, isolating them from Han Chinese and the other part of Miao people. Until Qing Dynasty, these people began to contact with outside world, did business and exchanged culture.

"Raw meat eaters"
Esquimo people is the general name which defines indigenous people from different cultures, coming from the north of America and Asia. Literally the term “Esquimese” comes from the native language and it means “raw meat eaters”. But Esquimo people judge this definition as injurious and full of preconception. To obviate to this misunderstanding, Esquimo people ask to change the name of the population in “Inuit” wich means simply “men”.

苏东坡和“东坡肉”(SU Dongpo & Dongpo's Pork)
苏东坡 (SU Dongpo, January 8, 1037 – August 24, 1101), was a writer, poet, artist, calligrapher, pharmacologist, and statesman of the Song Dynasty, and one of the major poets of the Song era. Besides his renowned poetry, his other extant writings are of great value in the understanding of 11th century Chinese travel literature as well as details of the 11th century Chinese iron industry.
东坡肉 (Dongpo's Pork)
Legend has it that while SU Dongpo was banished to Huangzhou, in a life of poverty, he made an improvement of the traditional process. He first braised the pork, added Chinese fermented wine and made red-braised pork, then slowly stewed it on a low heat. This dish was first launched in Huangzhou, then spread to Hangzhou, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, flourished, and then became one of Huangzhou's most famous dishes.
