宁夏居住着中国56个民族中的35个民族。据统计,1997年,回族占宁夏回族自治区总人口530万的33.4%、即180万,但在城市人口中回族却只占17%。外国人经常会问:“什么是自治区?”中国共有5个自治区,它们是:西藏、新疆、内蒙古、广西和宁夏。人们会注意到,前3个分别位于西部、西南和北部边境,广西位于南部沿海地区,宁夏则属于内陆地区。这些自治区相当于省,但由于那里居住着较为集中的某个少数民族而具有特殊的行政地位。这5个自治区的主要少数民族分别是:藏族、维吾尔

Foreigners often ask: “What is an autonomous region?” There are five autonomous regions in China, namely Tibet, Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Guangxi and Ningxia. People will notice that the first three are located on the western, southwestern and northern borders, with Guangxi in the southern coastal area and Ningxia inland. These autonomous regions are equivalent to provinces, but have special administrative status due to the fact that they live in a more concentrated ethnic minority. The main ethnic minorities in these five autonomous regions are: Tibetans and Uighurs
