Most of them are descendants of Han immigrants from the 17th to 19th centuries, when Taiwan was first under the rule of the Netherlands and finally the Chinese Qing Dynasty . Another wave of immigration took place between 1945 and 1949 after the end of Japanese rule . The main languages ​​of Han-Taiwanese are Hokkien (a dialect of Min Nan Chinese), Mandarin and Hakka .

The second largest, but by far smaller, ethnic group of Taiwan are the indigenous Austronesian peoples .

Religions

Mengjia Longshan Temple , a Taoist Buddhist temple in Taipei .

The traditional religions of the Han Taiwanese include Buddhism , Daoism and various folk religions. Taoism and Buddhism were originally practiced separately. During the Japanese rule (1895–1945), the Daoists were severely persecuted and so they secretly began to worship their deities in Buddhist temples. With 11,796 temples, Taiwan has the highest density of temples in the world.
