The Tuoba clan of the Xianbei tribe ( proto-Mongol people ) is politically separated from the Chinese dynasties established in Jiankang ( modern Nanjing ).

It is thought the dynasty originated from the Tuoba clan of the Xianbei tribe.

The Tuoba ( Tabgach ) tribe started their rise with Tuoba Liwei ( 219-277 ) who was the ancestor of the future Northern Wei Dynasty and was thus posthumously honored as Emperor Shenyuan, with the temple name Shizu.

The Shiwei tribe, like the Tuoba, were originally located to the north of the Murong and Khitan.

* Tuoba Yilu, ( 315 – 316 ) chieftain of the Tuoba tribe appointed Duke of Dai, then Prince of Dai by Western Jin.

Besides these three Xianbei groups, there were other Xianbei groups with Mongolic affiliation such as the Murong, Duan and Tuoba.

Geographically the Tuoba Xianbei ruled Inner Mongolia and northern China, the Nirun ( Yujiulu Shelun was the first to use the title Khagan in 402 ) ruled Outer Mongolia, the Khitan were concentrated in Southern Manchuria north of Korea and the Shiwei were located to the north of the Khitan.

The Tuoba Xianbei and Khitans were mostly Buddhists, although they still retained their original Tengriism.

The Northern Wei was established by the Tuoba clan of the Xianbei people in AD 386, when they united the northern part of China.

The founder of the Tangut-Western Xia was the Tuoba Xianbei from the Tuyuhun Kingdom.

Historical records and recent archeological findings shows the link of Li Yuanhao and the royal family's lineage with Tuoba Xianbei tribes.

The founder of the Tangut, the Tuoba Xianbei, was a famous prince of the Tuyuhun Empire ( 284 – 670 ), Tuoba Chici.

The northern Tiefu branch of the Xiongnu gained control of the Inner Mongolian region in the 10 years between the conquest of the Tuoba Xianbei state of Dai by the Former Qin empire in 376, and its restoration in 386 as the Northern Wei.

Two more branches showing evidence of being Mongolic are the Murong ( included in the core of the Xianbei during Tanshihuai's reign ) and the Tuoba.

These four important branches, the Shiwei, Khitan, Murong and Tuoba all arose as discernible entities in the middle of the 3rd century just after the Xianbei Empire had fallen in 235.

Most of them were unified by the Tuoba Xianbei, who established the Northern Wei ( 386-535 ), which was the first of the Northern Dynasties ( 386-581 ) founded by the Xianbei.

Tuoba were a clan of Xianbei people of ancient China.

The Zulu impi is popularly identified with the ascent of Shaka ( also rendered T ' chaka ), ruler of the relatively small Zulu tribe before its explosion across the landscape of southern Africa, but its earliest shape as a purposeful instrument of statecraft lies in the innovations of the Mwetha chieftain Dingiswayo, according to some historians ( Morris 1965 ).

This Slavic tribe, also known as the Alpine Slavs, was submitted to Avar rule before joining the Slavic chieftain Samo's Slavic tribal union in 623 AD.

Shaka was the first son of the chieftain Senzangakhona and Nandi, a daughter of Bhebhe, the past chief of the Elangeni tribe, born near present day Melmoth, KwaZulu-Natal Province.

The Chronicle of Fredegar in turn reveals that the Franks believed the Sicambri to be a tribe of Scythian or Cimmerian descent, who had changed their name to Franks in honour of their chieftain Franco in 11 BC.

In sources beginning with the Royal Frankish Annals, the Merovingian kings of the Franks traditionally traced their lineage through a pre-Frankish tribe called the Sicambri ( or Sugambri ), mythologized as a group of " Cimmerians " from the mouth of the Danube river, but who instead came from Gelderland in modern Netherlands and are named for the Sieg river or which could derive from that of the Cimbri as their chieftain names have the same suffix-rix.

The origin of the name of Bungay is thought to derive from the Anglo-Saxon title ' Bunincga-haye ', signifying the land belonging to the tribe of Bonna, a Saxon chieftain.

They had a yearly Sun Dance gathering and a chieftain who was considered to be the leader of the entire tribe.

The tribe takes its name from the chieftain Pacaha ( born in early 16th century ), who ruled the tribe from its primary village on the Mississippi River, which was thought to be located in present-day Crittenden County, Arkansas near Turrell.

Chief Pacaha's tribe had been at war for some time with a neighboring chieftain named Casqui.

The tribe takes its name from the chieftain Casqui who ruled the tribe from its primary village thought to be located in present day Cross County, Arkansas near the town of Parkin.

The name of the town is believed to originate from the Saxon chieftain or tribe Bunta ; it does not refer to the bird Bunting, or the festive flag-like decorations.
