The ethnic relations in the Five Dynasties were complicated, which was the continuation and development of ethnic relations in the late Tang Dynasty and had an important impact on ethnic relations in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. At present, academic circles pay more attention to the ethnic relations in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but less attention to the ethnic relations in the Tang, Song and Five Dynasties. Most of them discuss some problems of a certain nationality, but do not make a comprehensive investigation of the northern minorities as a whole, which can not fully show the whole picture of the relationship between the northern minorities and the Central Plains Dynasty in the Five Dynasties, and lacks systematicness and comprehensiveness. Therefore, it is very necessary to study the relationship between the northern minorities and the Central Plains Dynasty in the Five Dynasties, which will help us to have an overall grasp of the ethnic relations in the Five Dynasties and even in ancient China. The purpose of this paper is to find out the characteristics and development law of the relationship between the northern minorities and the Central Plains Dynasty in the Five Dynasties by discussing the general distribution of the northern minorities and their political, economic and cultural relations with the Central Plains Dynasty. This paper is divided into four parts: the first part is the introduction, which mainly introduces the research status, research materials, research methods and the significance of this study on the relationship between northern minorities and the Central Plains Dynasty in the Five Dynasties. So far, there is no book devoted to the study of the relationship between northern minorities and the Central Plains Dynasty in the Five Dynasties. It should be meaningful for the author to try this research. The second part, the second chapter, introduces the general distribution of ethnic minorities in northeast and northwest China during the Five Dynasties, so as to better understand their communication with the Central Plains Dynasty. The third part is the main part of this paper, including the third, fourth and fifth chapters. The third chapter is a concrete study of the political relationship between the northern nationalities and the Central Plains dynasty. According to their own strength, the northern ethnic minorities had different degrees of contact with the Central Plains Dynasty. Through tribute, conferment, conferment and war, the relationship between them is realized. The fourth chapter is a concrete study of the economic relationship between the northern nationalities and the Central Plains dynasty. Influenced and stimulated by the advanced civilization of the Central Plains, the agriculture, animal husbandry and handicrafts of the northern minorities have made progress and development to varying degrees, laying the foundation for the development of commercial trade. The commercial trade between the northern minorities and the Central Plains Dynasty was frequent, and the economic complementarity was realized through tribute trade and mutual trade. This will play a positive role in promoting the social and economic development and cultural progress of the northern minorities. The fifth chapter specifically studies the spread and influence of Central Plains civilization in northern minority areas. With the strengthening of the political and economic ties between the northern nationalities and the Central Plains Dynasty, under the influence and impact of Chinese culture in the Central Plains, the northern nationalities have changed and developed to some extent in language, customs, diet, science and technology, art and so on. The fourth part, the sixth chapter, studies the overall characteristics and development trend of the relationship between the northern minorities and the Central Plains dynasty, which is the focus of the full text. It mainly reveals that in the special period of the Five Dynasties, due to the differences in politics, economy, culture and geographical position of the northern ethnic groups, their relationship with the Central Plains Dynasty is unique.
