Hainan only joined the mainland's Nation at a later Time.
For two millennia Hainan was where subversive officials were exiled to, so it's littered with historically significant sites, such as Temple of Five Lords (a memorial to five shunned bureaucrats) and the Tomb of Hai Rui. There are three ethnic groups on the Island, the majority of whom are the Li and Miao ethnic groups. Ethnic minority groups of Hainan Island are the Li People ,VMiao,and the Min People. The Li reside mainly in the central and southern regions of the Island.
