Han Taiwanese,[3][4][5][page needed][6] Taiwanese Han[7][8] (Chinese: 臺灣漢人[9][10]), Taiwanese Han Chinese,[11] or Han Chinese[12][13] are Taiwanese people of full or partial ethnic Han ancestry.[14][15][16][17] According to the Executive Yuan of Taiwan, they comprise 95[2] to 97[18] percent of the Taiwanese population, which also includes Austronesians and other non-Han people.[19] Major waves of Han immigration occurred since the 17th century to the end of Chinese Civil War in 1949, with the exception of the Japanese colonial period (1895–1945).[19] Han Taiwanese mainly speak three languages of Chinese: Mandarin, Hokkien and Hakka.[20][21]
