History: before 1912, 1912–49, 1949–present Administrative division codes |
Ethnic townships (officially translated as nationality townships), ethnic towns, and ethnic sums are fourth-level administrative units designated for ethnic minorities of political divisions in the People's Republic of China. They are not considered to be autonomous and do not enjoy the laws pertaining to the larger ethnic autonomous areas such as autonomous regions, autonomous prefectures, autonomous counties, and autonomous banners. However, what defines an ethnic township is that the law requires that its head of government be a member of the titular ethnic minority.
The only ethnic sum is the Evenk Ethnic Sum in Old Barag Banner, Inner Mongolia.
