 Subei people

The Subei people (), also known as Jiangbei People (), are a Jianghuai Mandarin-speaking Han Chinese people of the Subei region (northern Jiangsu province).Due to natural disasters and insurrections in their native region, during the Qing and the Republican periods, they migrated in large numbers to the Wu-speaking Jiangnan region (south of the Yangtze), especially Shanghai.
