AHC: Farthest possible offshot of Han Chinese

[Otto Kretschmer]

How far away can a group of Han Chinese migrate with a PoD between the Spring and Autumn Period and Tang Dynasty and establish a stable population?

We had Celts in Anatolia whicn is quite far away from other Celts yet still in Europe according to at least some poeople.

well one of them is with a han or most likely a tang pod is have a chinise or mostly chinised culture kingdom /s in central asia as far west as maybe transoxiana its self , which is considerably far away from the 1/3 center inhabited by the han chinise .

If you consider Chinese colonialism as a possibility, anywhere on the West Coast of the Americas or Australia seems possible. If you want to stick closely to OTL, I'd say somewhere on the eastern coast of the Caspian Sea.

First you'd need to establish a good reason for large groups of Han Chinese to pick up and move. The Celts were semi-migratory and often launched invasions with their wives and children encamped close behind. The Han Chinese during the Tang era had been sedentary for centuries and were primarily employed in harvesting crops like rice that could not be cultivated further west than the easternmost third of modern China's borders.

It would be much more likely for a group of Chinese warlords to take over a region like Khwarazm and partially sinicize the country rather than for a migrating group of Han Chinese to displace other ethnic groups.
