The documentary of Russian Chinese people living in Xinjiang and Northeast China (English subtitle)

[dragonrider1984]

The Russian Chinese population are basically descents of the Russian refugees during Russian Civil war

During Russian Civil war, hundreds of Russian people fled to China to seek refugee. Most of them live in today's Xinjiang and Northeastern part of China.

During that time, in Harbin city alone, there were 200,000 Russian residents in the city during 1920s. The Chinese army even recruited many ethnic Russian soldiers during the 1920s.

After world war 2, most of Russians returned to Russia or immigrated to other countries, but some of them still remain in China.


The Russian people live in Xinjiang are still pure Russians, and they speak Russian language.

While the Russian Chinese population live in Northeast China, are basically Russian-Chinese mixing ethnics, parts of their ancestors come from Russia, but now they become 100% Chinese because they don't speak Russian language and practice Russian culture anymore.


This is the difference between Russian Chinese live in Xinjiang and Russian Chinese live in Northeast China.

These are the documentaries with English or English subtitle
