They are known as the Gypsies of the East, their ancestors came from Nepal, and they also invaded China**, and after their defeat, they wandered abroad for more than 200 years, becoming vagabonds that no one wants. They are Dammam people, and it was not until 2003 that they finally obtained Chinese nationality. Why didn't anyone accept the Damans?Now that more than 20 years have passed, how are they doing?Today, I will give you an understanding.
The Daman people live in Dammam Village, Jilonggou County, Shigatse City, which is the border of our country, less than 30 kilometers away from Nepal. The population of the village is not very large, about 200 people. If it weren't for the fact that a ** accidentally entered Daman Village when he visited Jinlonggou in 2001, he would not have found that in such a remote and difficult small place, there was still such a group of people, whether it was clothing, language or Xi, there was almost no difference between the party and the Tibetans, but as long as you looked closely, you would find that their big blue eyes looked out of place with the locals.
For the past 200 years, the Daman people have no nationality, no land, and are not accepted by any country, so they can only wander around the border areas, and when they can, they will build a broken hut with thatch, and a family of more than a dozen people will be crammed into it. If you don't have the conditions, you can only rely on the opportunity to change the pig and cowshed for odd jobs, even if you are sick, you have to grit your teeth, otherwise it is easy to be kicked out. Dressed people usually rely on odd jobs or use ancestral iron-making skills to make a living in the local area. Because the income is not high, and it is a black household, let alone any compulsory education, even reading and writing is an extremely extravagant thing, not to mention all kinds of major and minor illnesses such as guarantees, all of which have to survive on their own. On top of that, because they are the descendants of the invaders, they have to endure discrimination from the locals.
What exactly do the Daman people come from?Why have they been wandering for more than 200 years?In Tibetan, Daman means cavalry, and the ancestors of the Daman people were the Kurkha cavalry, which is now known as the Nepalese.
In the 18th century, Kurka unified Nepal and established a dynasty, more than three times the size of present-day Nepal. It may be that the continuous conquest made Kurka a little overconfident, and suddenly decided to confront the Qing Dynasty, wanting to annex the ** region, and along the way, he burned and plundered all kinds of evil, because the fight was unexpected, the Qing Dynasty did not react at first, and after knowing the news, Qianlong ** could bear it?I really think that anyone can be bullied in 100 years, right?
Qianlong, who was furious, immediately ordered Fang Kang to lead the troops to kill him, and Fang Kang lived up to expectations, not only beating the Kurkha army, but also attacking their lair all the way, which frightened Kurka to immediately bow down. And in the war, there was such a Kurka cavalry, which got lost when they fled, and finally reluctantly went to live a primitive life. And this group of people is also miserable, you say go back to Nepal, they are deserters again, if they go back, they will die, just want to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. People felt that this group of people was uneasy and unreasonable, so they could only wander the border stateless for hundreds of years. After the founding of New China, the Daman people were still kicked around like a ball, on the other hand, the Tibetan compatriots lived a good life where everyone had a heart and a book to read, which made them envious. So joining China and obtaining Chinese nationality was their lifelong wish, for which they looked forward to it for more than 200 years, until 2003, when Daman was incorporated into the Tibetan ethnic group and became a Chinese child.
It has been more than 20 years since the Daman people who have become children of China, and how are they living now?If you come to Daman Village, you will find that every house has a shining five-star red flag at the door, for them, it is China that accepts them, so that all Daman people no longer wander and have their own home. In the eyes of many Dammam elders, life now is a day they never dreamed of in the past.
Our country learned that the poor life of the Daman people, it can be said that it attaches great importance to it, not only approved Dammam to join China, but also built houses for them, connected to water and electricity, and allocated cattle, sheep and fields to each family, so that they have a stable economy, no longer hungry and cold, and also received a lot of subsidies from the policy of benefiting the people, which greatly improved their lives. Not only that, children can also receive education in school, learn Xi knowledge, go to the wider world, and accept the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.
In 2017, the Daman people ushered in the first college student in the village, with the prosperity of tourism, with the support of the first, the Daman people also came up with a good iron technology, which can not only make money, but also carry forward the traditional Chinese culture, now the life of the Daman people has become better and better, but everyone who comes here, can feel their strong gratitude to the motherland, and some young people choose to join the army and participate in the task of defending the motherland's borders.
Because of their appearance, they are often considered foreigners, but the Daman people always seriously say that they are Chinese, because for them, China is the only motherland in their hearts, and joining China is the proudest thing in their lives. After more than 200 years of wandering, they have finally come to a home, and I believe that they will usher in a better and happier life in the future. Search for topics
