History
During the Spring and Autumn period, on the boundary of Guizhou existed the ancient country of Tang Kha (牂柯), which had contact with the Zhongyuan. During the Warring States period, Guizhou belonged to the Qianzhong county of Chu state, the area covering the area of Tongren and part of the present-day Jianzhong. After Qin Shi Huang unified China, the division fell under the control of the three counties, the Shu district, the Qianzhong district and the Tuong district. In the early Western Han Dynasty, Guizhou belonged to Qianwei county and Tang Ge county of Yi Province. Qianwei county governed the areas of what is now northern Guizhou, southern Sichuan, southern Chongqing; Tang Ge county governed the areas of what is now southern Sichuan and its periphery. During the middle and late Western Han period, most of the northern region of Quy Chau merged into the administrative area of Tang Ca district, at that time Tang Ca district had 14 districts. Also during the Han Dynasty, the area of Guizhou was likely home to a tribal confederacy called the Yelang Kingdom (夜郎), which lasted for about 200 years from the 3rd century BC to the 1st century AD. . During the Three Kingdoms period, Guizhou belonged to the Tang Ca district of Shu Han, the county ruled by Tha Lan (now northwest of Khai Ly). Tang Ca district in the Thuc Han dynasty had seven districts: Tha Lan, Vo Liem, Quang Dam, Te, Binh Ap, Da Lang, and Dam Chi.
During the Tang Dynasty, in Qianzhou, he established the Qianzhong Dao, established the district of Jianzhou, and established the admiralty of Qianzhou. During the Tang Dynasty, in Guizhou appeared local tutelary governments that had far-reaching influence later on. During the 8th and 9th centuries of the Tang Dynasty, Han Chinese soldiers came to Guizhou and married native women, their descendants contrasting with the Han people who colonized Guizhou in later times. . They still speak an ancient dialect. Many of the immigrants to Guizhou were also descendants of Han Chinese soldiers stationed with non-Han women.
The name "Guizhou" originates from the Song Dynasty. In 974, the leader Pho Quy who controlled Cu Chau submitted to the Northern Song court. The Northern Song court issued an edict that read: "Wei Tai in Guizhou, forever in weak wilderness" (惟爾貴州，遠在要荒), which is the earliest time the name "Guizhou" was recorded. bibliography. In the 17th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1413), the court established Guizhou as the chief historical officer, officially establishing a provincial organizational system, the province's name was Guizhou. The imperial court abolished Tu Chau to declare the party committee and Tu Nam to declare the party committee, retaining the Tuong Dong tu company and the Thuy Tay tu company, both under the jurisdiction of the Guizhou governorate. In the 5th Yongzheng year of the Qing Dynasty (1727), Guizhou took over the jurisdiction of the Xunyifu areas of Sichuan; Libo and areas north of the Red River and Nanban Rivers in Guangxi; Binh Khe and Thien Tru of Ho Quang.
Since the Ming Dynasty, there have been large waves of Han Chinese immigration from Sichuan, Hunan and surrounding areas to Guizhou. The Miao had waged several revolts against the imperial court. During the Qing Dynasty, Han soldiers came to the Taijiang area, married Miao women, and the children born were raised as Miao. Many Miao uprisings also occurred during the Qing Dynasty such as the rebellion in 1735, the uprising in 1795-1806 and the longest rebellion in 1854-1873.
