Qing Empire vs. Muslim Empire

Even though the Qing Empire ruled a large portion of China, they strived to keep their empire ethnically unique. One way they did this is by banning intermarriages between themselves and Chinese. Qing officials did not ry to assimilate local people, but they did try to keep their religion different that the rest of China. They learnt all the Chinese customs and the language but did not allow Chinese people in the army because they were too "soft" and would ruin the fighting spirit. Even though they made it seem they would be very diverse, they really were not all that diverse.

While they did allow people of all ethnicities and religions, unlike the Safavids, or tax people for being of a different religion, like the Ottomans. So even though it might seem they were not very accepting of diversity, I feel they are more diverse than the Muslim Empires.
