The basic feature of Nation-state is that coordinated and consistent relationship between nation and ethnic group has formed, which means that each ethnic group regards the nation as Indemnification of its interest. Therefore, how to coordinate the relationship between ethnic interest and the national interest is a fundamental problem that Nation-state has to face.Modernization has become an inevitable trend of the world development. It has been an inevitable choice for each nation and ethnic group who wants to survive and develop in the globalizational world. In other words,realizing modernization itself has become interest for each nation and ethnic group.In Nation-state,Modernization of the whole nation is the support and security for each ethnic group's Modernization; otherwise, each ethnic group's Modernization is the most important part of the whole nation's Modernization.China is a unified multi-ethnic country.
