Because the ancestors of this ethnic group are actually Mongolians, and their descendants naturally have Chinese blood. This ethnic group is the third largest ethnic group in Afghanistan, the Hazaras. Why did the Mongols come to Afghanistan? This goes back to the time of Genghis Khan. We all know that when Genghis Khan was on the throne, he could be said to be the most aggressive external expansion among ancient kings. Not only did he like to invade foreign countries, but he would also go to far-off countries to attack even those countries that were far away, regardless of military or financial resources. According to historical records, the farthest place they attacked was Rome.
Similarly, when Genghis Khan attacked what is now Afghanistan, he was bound to station troops there, so he left a Mongolian army and stationed it for a long time. As time went by, this Mongolian army started a new life in Afghanistan. Their descendants also intermarried with local people and accepted local cultural customs.
However, the powerful Mongolian genes allow their descendants to still maintain their basic appearance, especially the yellow skin color, which makes the Hazaras look very similar to other ethnic groups in Afghanistan. no the same.
Because of this history, one-third of the current Hazaras can be traced back to the Mongols. Not only that, scientists have also conducted scientific demonstrations, and the results further prove the credibility of this view.
To this day, the Hazara people still use the twelve zodiac animals and retain the customs of their ancestors. Moreover, in terms of marriage customs, the traditions of the ancient feudal system are also followed. Marriages are arranged according to the orders of parents and the advice of matchmakers.
Although the Hazaras are the third largest ethnic group in Afghanistan, they are also marginalized by other ethnic groups because their appearance is different from other ethnic groups. For example, the Pashtuns are very unacceptable. The Hazaras are suppressed from all sides.
