In terms of China's historical map, the mainland's textbooks use Tan Qixiang version of history textbooks, and the textbooks used in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are different from those used in the mainland, so there are also differences in historical maps. Today, the editor will bring you a Hong Kong version of the historical map. This version of the historical map is a set of regions formed by modifying the most unreasonable parts (such as Yuan Dynasty ) based on the historical map of Tan Qixiang. The map of Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties in the Hong Kong version of the Han Dynasty and Zhou dynasties has no distinction between territory and color, but only the core areas of the three dynasties are marked. Among them, Xia Dynasty is located in the southwest of Shanxi, and the Shang Dynasty is located at the junction of Henan, Shandong and Hebei. Zhou originated in Shaanxi Province. The Erlitou cultural site is also marked in the picture, but it is not clear whether the Erlitou cultural site was the Xia Dynasty. There is some truth to this map in Hong Kong because people cannot accurately reach the range of the third generation.
Xia, Shang and Zhou map
Hong Kong version of the Western Zhou map, the dark part in the picture is the territory of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The picture mainly shows some important feudal countries. Among them, the green one was the first enfeoffment of the princes, which was the enfeoffment implemented by King Wu after he destroyed Shang. The red one is the feudal after the Eastern Expedition of Duke Zhou. This is more obvious, the migration status of the feudal state is also a very good map.

Hong Kong version of the Spring and Autumn Period map, mainly displaying the distribution of major powers in the Spring and Autumn Period. The red one is the princes of Ji surname, and the red one is the princes of different surnames. The circle is the " Five Heroes of the Spring and Autumn Period" mentioned in "Records of the Grand Historian". In fact, the five hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period that people widely recognize are Qi, Jin, Chu, Wu and Yue.

Hong Kong version of Warring States map and Taiwan version are not much different. It can be said to be a copy of the Taiwan version. Generally, the mainland version of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period will not draw obvious national boundaries, but will only mark the capitals of the princes and important cities. The editor believes that marking the country can make people more clear about the sphere of influence and size of each country. However, the national boundaries of various countries are constantly changing, and the editor believes that it is better to take a typical time point.

Hong Kong version Qin Dynasty map is a completely replica of the mainland Tan Qixiang version map, without any changes. The Qin Dynasty in the picture still includes the southwestern Yi ( Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau ), but does not include the north of Vietnam . The editor has long discussed the issue of Tan's version of the Qin Dynasty's map. The Qin Dynasty did not rule the Yunnan-Guizhou area. At that time, there were still Yelang, , Dian Kingdom, and other countries in Yunnan-Guizhou. The southernmost Xiangjun in the Qin Dynasty should be in Vietnam. In the Han Dynasty, it was divided into three counties: Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen and Rinan, all of which were in Vietnam.

Hong Kong version of Han Dynasty map is more interesting. First, the Hong Kong version uses different colors to mark the Han Dynasty: the yellow part is the long-term management area of the Han Dynasty, that is, the mainland. The green part is a military-controlled area, that is, the Western Regions Protectorate. The blue part is the area that is expanded by in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is Yongchang County (Ailao Country in the Western Han Dynasty). The brown part is the missing part of the Eastern Han Dynasty, including the Korean Peninsula, Hainan Island and the central area of Vietnam. This map can clearly reflect the territory of the Han Dynasty.

Hong Kong version of the Three Kingdoms map is the same as the world-renowned Three Kingdoms map. Compared with Tan Qixiang's version, the main difference is that there is no Western Region. In the Tan version map, the northwest of Wei State also controls the Western Regions and is marked as the Chief Mansion of the Western Regions. It is worth exploring whether Cao Wei controls the Western Regions. The editor believes that the Wei and Jin Dynasties did have strong foundations in the Western Regions, because evidence of Cao Wei's farming in Loulan was discovered from archaeology. However, the editor believes that the Wei and Jin Dynasties did not really control most of the Western Regions. At that time, it was hard to say that all the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions were under the jurisdiction of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and there was no relevant situation recorded in historical books, which shows that , Central Plains, , had no idea about the Western Regions at that time.

From Southern and Northern Dynasties to Sui and Tang dynasties, Five Dynasties, and Southern Song The difference between the historical map of the Hong Kong version and the Tan version is not much, and the Hong Kong version is even a copy of the Tan version map.

For Mongol Empire and the territory of the Yuan Dynasty, the Hong Kong version did not adopt the method of painting the Tan version. Tan's version painted the territory of the Yuan Dynasty to the Arctic Ocean. Because Sino-Soviet relations deteriorated at that time, Tan Qixiang followed the rules. In fact, the Yuan Dynasty reached the northernmost area of Lake Baikal. In addition, the Hong Kong version of the Korean Peninsula was included in the Yuan Dynasty because the Goryeo Dynasty was already controlled by the Yuan Dynasty and a province of expedition was once established. The mainland version of textbooks uses the Tan version map, but it has been modified to include Taiwan Island in the Yuan Dynasty (and the same is true for Ming Dynasty ). In fact, the Yuan Dynasty only governed the Penghu Islands at that time, but did not govern Taiwan.

Hong Kong version of the Ming Dynasty map can be said to refer to Tan's version of the Ming Dynasty map, but I dare not use it all. So two colors were drawn, the green part was the territory of the Ming Dynasty and the yellow part was marked as the sphere of influence in the early Ming Dynasty. The reason why we emphasize that these spheres of influence no longer exist in the early Ming Dynasty, that is, after the middle period. It can be said that the Hong Kong version of the Ming Dynasty map is still relatively rational.

Hong Kong version of Qing Dynasty map, only one color is used, but the boundaries of the administrative region are drawn and the names are marked. This shows that textbooks in both mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan recognize that the Qing Dynasty achieved great unification and laid the territorial foundation for modern China. The Qing Dynasty unified the Northeast, conquered the inner and outer Mongolia, 18 Han provinces, pacified Taiwan, repelled Russia, managed Qinghai-Tibet, and eliminated Junggar, and almost completely owned the East Asian continent.
