told you about the evolution of zoning changes in many cities. The evolution of zoning changes in each city is very complicated, because our country has a very long history. With 5,000 years of history and culture, our country has gone through many changes. The changes in each city are extremely complicated. During the same regime, the naming of places was also different. Today I will tell you about the zoning changes of Suqian City, Jiangsu Province, and see how Suqian gradually formed the current pattern of five districts and counties. It is not easy to find historical materials. I hope you can support it briefly.
First, let’s briefly talk about the development of Jiangsu Province. The abbreviation of Jiangsu Province is Su. As a very important provincial administrative region in my country, its provincial capital is Nanjing. The current permanent population in Jiangsu is 85.054 million people. The total area of Jiangsu is 107,200 square kilometers. The terrain in Jiangsu is relatively flat, mainly composed of plains and low mountains and hills.
After development in recent years, Jiangsu is now also the most economically active province in my country. Since 2009, its per capita GDP has always ranked first in my country. At the same time, it is one of the top 100 districts, top 100 counties, and top 100 towns with the largest number in my country. The reason why Jiangsu is called Jiangsu is the combination of the first characters of Jiangning or Suzhou . It is an important birthplace of ancient Chinese civilization. The 13 prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu are all famous historical and cultural cities in my country.
Suqian is a prefecture-level city directly under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu Province. Suqian is a comprehensive transportation hub in the northern part of Jiangsu Province. It is also an important node city radiating from the coastal areas to the central and western regions. Currently, Suqian has two districts and three counties under its jurisdiction. Suqian has a total area of 8,555 square kilometers. According to census data, Suqian currently has a permanent population of 4.999 million people.
Suqian has a very long history, with more than 5,000 years of civilized history. At the same time, Suqian has been established as a city for more than 2,700 years, and Suqian is also an important birthplace of my country's wine culture. According to economic census data, the GDP of Suqian region in 2021 is 371.901 billion yuan. At the same time, Suqian is also China's textile industry base. Overall, the current economic development situation in Suqian is very good.
So what kind of zoning changes has Suqian experienced in history to gradually form the current zoning pattern?
Starting from the Spring and Autumn Period, talking about Suqian at that time, it belonged to the land of Huaiyi. In the early Warring States period, it belonged to the state of Wu. Later, the state of Yue annexed the state of Wu. Suqian belonged to the state of Yue. In the late Warring States period, the state of Yue was annexed by the state of Chu. Later, at the end of the Warring States Period, the Qin State swept across the six countries, abolished the feudal system, and adopted the county system. At that time, Suqian mainly belonged to Donghai County and Sishui County.
In the Western Han Dynasty, the system of counties and counties was adopted. At the same time, the parallel system of counties and counties was adopted on the basis of counties and counties. There were 13 provincial governors in the country. At that time, Suqian was under the jurisdiction of Linhuai County of Xuzhou provincial governor. Suqian during the Eastern Han period was changed to Xiapi County of Xuzhou. After the Yellow Turban Uprising , the Eastern regime existed in name only. During the Three Kingdoms period, Suqian was an important place for competition between the north and the south. Suqian was mainly under the jurisdiction of the Wei State, and Suqian belonged to Xiapi County of Xuzhou.
During the Western Jin , our country once again ushered in a brief period of unification. At that time, Suqian was under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou and Linhuai Kingdom. After the collapse of the Western Jin Dynasty, our country experienced many years of war. In the Sui Dynasty, our country once again ushered in unification. At that time, Suqian was under the jurisdiction of Xiapi County.
In the Tang Dynasty, the three-level administrative system of Daozhou and County was adopted. Suqian was under the jurisdiction of Sizhou, Henan at that time. In the Song Dynasty, the three-level administrative system of Luzhou and County was adopted. Suqian at that time belonged to the Huaiyang Army of Jingdong East Road.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, the area north of the Huaihe River at that time was occupied by the Kingdom of Jin. In the zoning map of the Kingdom of Jin, Suqian belonged to Pizhou on the East and West Road of Shandong.
The provincial system was adopted in the Yuan Dynasty , which was the source of our country’s later provincial system. Suqian belonged to Guide Prefecture, Jiangbei Province, Henan at that time. In the Ming Dynasty, the administrative system continued to be refined. There were two capital cities in the Ming Dynasty. Suqian was under the jurisdiction of Huai'an Prefecture in Nanzhili. During the Qing Dynasty, Jiangnan Province was divided into two, and Suqian was subsequently assigned to Jiangsu Province, under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou Prefecture of Jiangsu Province.
During the Republic of China, the state system was abolished and a provincial and county system was adopted. At that time, Suqian belonged to the Huaiyin Administrative Supervision District. In the 34th year of the Republic of China, Suqian was established. Suqian was under the jurisdiction of Sisu County. In the 35th year of the Republic of China, Suqian was designed as Suqian County and belonged to the Huaiyin District. In 1970, the Huaiyin District was renamed Huaiyin District. In 1983, Suqian belonged to Huaiyin City.
In 1987, Suqian County was upgraded to a county-level city Suqian City . In 1996, Suqian City was upgraded again to a prefecture-level city. So far, Suqian has appeared on the administrative map of my country as a prefecture-level city.
Now that the article has come to this point, I want to tell you what kind of city Suqian is.
As a city with a relatively low economic ranking in Jiangsu Province, prices in Suqian are relatively cheap. In terms of air quality, since Suqian has not developed industries on a large scale, its air quality is still good, and it is located on the north-south dividing line , where popular snacks in the south and popular snacks in the north are available. After the development in recent years, it can be clearly felt that Suqian's development in the past two years has been much better than in previous years.
Generally speaking, Suqian is a very suitable city for retirement. If young people are allowed to stay, they will definitely not be able to stay. Few outsiders come to Suqian to work. Suqian is a city with a large population outflow.
As the youngest prefecture-level city in Jiangsu Province, there is no doubt about the future development prospects of Suqian. Once the epidemic is over, Suqian will definitely put economic development on the agenda. You must know that Suqian was once praised by Qianlong as the place with the most benefits. Its future development is boundless.
has just told you about the evolution of zoning changes in Suqian. Later articles will introduce to you the evolution of zoning changes in other cities. I hope you like it and thank you for your support.
