Uyghur nationalism information


Uyghur nationalism (Uyghur: ئۇيغۇر مىللەتچىلىكى)[a] is a nationalist movement which asserts that the Uyghur people, an ethnic minority in China, are a distinct nation. Uyghur nationalism promotes the cultural unity of the Uyghur people, either as an independent group or as a regional group within a larger Chinese nation.

Uyghurs are mostly concentrated in Xinjiang, a province-level autonomous region located in Western China. They are Turkic-speaking, and most of them adhere to Sunni Islam. They are officially recognized by the Chinese government as one of the "56 flowers".

Uyghur nationalism is linked to the East Turkestan independence movement, also known as the Uyghur independence movement, which seeks to separate Xinjiang from China and establish self-rule as an independent nation. "East Turkestan" is a common alternative name for Xinjiang used by advocates of independence. "Uyghurstan" is another alternative name.
