Ethnic townships (officially translated as nationality townships ), ethnic towns, and ethnic sums are fourth-level administrative units designated for ethnic minorities of political divisions in the People's Republic of China. They are not considered to be autonomous and do not enjoy the laws pertaining to the larger ethnic autonomous areas such as autonomous regions, autonomous prefectures, autonomous counties, and autonomous banners. The only ethnic sum is the Evenk Ethnic Sum in Old Barag Banner, Inner Mongolia.
