Abstract: Consolidating the sense of the Community for the Chinese Nation is the main line of the work on ethnic affairs in the new era. Many historical factors contributed to the formation of the sense of the Community for the Chinese Nation. The Han nationality as the main ethnic group in China played a leading role in the formation and development of the Community for the Chinese Nation. A strong central government provided political guarantees. The political idea of “unification of tianxia” was the cultural motivation. Resettlement and development comprised an important economic and social factor that laid the foundation for the formation and development of the Community for the Chinese Nation. Summarizing its historical factors is conducive to in-depth study and comprehension of General Secretary Xi Jinpings statements on consolidating the sense of the Community for the Chinese Nation, thereby improving the conscientiousness of Party members and officials as well as the masses of all ethnic groups to consolidate the sense of the Community for the Chinese Nation.

Key words:  the sense of the Community for the Chinese Nation, the work on ethnic affairs in the new era
