Features: The Northwest has long been a region inhabited by ethnic minorities. A large number of Northwest ethnic literature materials provide detailed records of the achievements, contributions, and impacts of ethnic groups such as the Di, Tuyuhun, Tubo, Dangxiang, Khitan, and Uyghur who lived in the Northwest in ancient times in terms of politics, economy, and culture.
