These are English demonyms for people from People's Republic of China. A demonym describes a connection to a place; it does not mean everyone shares an ethnicity, language or religion.
Modern borders are a starting point for exploring the past. These cultures and states occupied some of the same land; they were not the same country. Dates describe each civilization or state as a whole, not continuous rule over every place listed.
An official religion is a legal status. The largest religious group is a population measure. Neither describes every person's beliefs.
Official status and a dated affiliation breakdown have not been checked for this country. The atlas's religion tags are not a population ranking.

Each says what kind of claim it is: a principal belligerent is
hand-checked against the modern state that succeeded the power that
fought, while a recorded participant comes from the bulk
import, which does not separate combat from funding, basing,
occupation or reconstruction. Neither list is complete, so a country
missing from a war may still have taken part — which is why the
quiz no longer asks who fought in what.
