About half the country's people are ethnic Lao. The Lao are descended from the Tai people who began migrating southward from China in the first millennium A.D. Mountain tribes of Hmong-Yao, and Tibeto-Burman (Kor and Phounoy) as well as Tai ethno-linguistic heritage are found in northern Laos. In the central and southern mountains, Austro Asiatic (Mon-Khmer and Viet-Muong) tribes predominate. Some Vietnamese and Chinese minorities remain, particularly in the towns. The country recognizes 68 different ethnic groups in its territory. Most people in Laos live in valleys of the Mekong River and its tributaries.
