Wikipedia says:
> Overseas Chinese people are people of Chinese origin who reside outside Greater China (mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan).[20] As of 2011, there were over 40.3 million overseas Chinese.[8]
40.3 million is quite a few. And they form significant minorities in many South East Asian countries.
But you are right that eg Germany or South Sudon don't really have enough Chinese people to really say much about them there.

how to quantify "by and large"? there's not many chinese people outside china and most of them left china in the last 100 years in search of better lives.
