The Integration of Tuoba Tribe and Northern Nomadic Tribes from the Perspective of the"Chanyu"Titles
As one of the"Xianbei"tribes,Tuoba tribe once developed a set of title system with"Khan"as its symbol,which was different from that of Xiongnu and Huaxia.Since the Wei and Jin dynasties,the"Chanyu"title has been widely used in the northern tribes.In the late Western Jin Dynasty,the Huns tribes staged an uprising against the dynasty and popularized the title of"Chanyu"among the northern nomad groups,then the royal court of Western Jin has conferred the title on the Tuoba tribe and the title was used for a long time.The title"Chanyu"for the Huns was equal to the traditional"Khan"for Xianbei tribes and"Emperor"or"King"for Huaxia.The title presented a unique political framework of northern nomad groups.There is not only the differences in between the Hu and Han ethnic people,but also the disparities in between different Hu groups,which reflects the unique integration of the nomadic tribal regime in the political system and political structure.The titles of the tribal chieftains such as"Chanyu"and"Khan"have successively disappeared from the official documents of the Northern Wei Dynasty,which reflected the trend of the nomadic groups developing towards the Huaxia style regime,as well as the historical direction of national integration in the Northern Dynasty.
