The countries of Southeast Asia are located on the mainland, but also on the islands. Due to the isolation of people on the islands, a larger number of ethnic groups emerged. Also, China and India had a great influence as neighboring countries, from where the population moved to the territory of Southeast Asia. Numerous European colonists who conquered the territories of Southeast Asia contributed to the increase in the number of ethnic groups. Of the many ethnic groups, the largest are the Chinese.
