It is crucial to know that the Chin people are not just an ethnic group of Myanmar. The term 'Chin' rather stands for a nation. Even though the word nation and ethnic are similar or are synonyms, it is more accurate to use as "The Chin Nation." It covers many differents tribes and ethnic people groups those who settle in Chinland. For instance, such Zomi, Lais, Zo, Mizo and Cho are different ethnic people groups those who settle in Chinland or are known to be the Chins as a whole. It is a vast scope of study to discuss about the history of the Chins. The term nation aslo is sometime controvercial in political aspect.( see the following quotation from wikepidia) Therefore, it will appear in a different topic of posting in the future.
see the definition about nation according to wekipedia
Two people may be separated by difference in personalities, belief systems, geographical locations, time and even spoken language, yet regard themselves and be seen by others, as members of the same nation. Nationals are considered to share certain traits and norms of behavior, certain duties toward other members, and certain responsibilities for the actions of the members of the same nation.
Nations extend across generations, and include the dead as full members. More vaguely, they are assumed to include future generations. No-one fixes a timespan, but a nation is typically several centuries old. Past events are evaluated in this context, for instance by referring to "our soldiers" in conflicts which took place hundreds of years ago.
The term nation is often used as a synonym for ethnic group (sometimes "ethnos"), but although ethnicity is now one of the most important aspects of cultural or social identity for the members of most nations, people with the same ethnic origin may live in different nation-states and be treated as members of separate nations for that reason. National identity is often disputed, down to the level of the individual.
Almost all nations are associated with a specific territory, the national homeland. Some live in a historical diaspora, that is, mainly outside the national homeland. A state which explicitly identifies as the homeland of a particular nation is a nation-state, and most modern states fall into this category, although there may be violent disputes about their legitimacy. Where territory is disputed between nations, the claims may be based on which nation lived there first. Especially in areas of historical European settlement (1500-1950), the term "First Nations" is used by groups which share an aboriginal culture, and seek official recognition or autonomy.
