Jiangzhou, place name. Many provinces and cities in China have the name "Jiangzhou" now and in the past. For example, Jiujiang City in Jiangxi Province was called Jiangzhou during the Jin Dynasty; Chongqing was also called Jiangzhou during the ancient Three Kingdoms Period; and Chongzuo City in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region also had a place called Jiangzhou District.
Jiangzhou County, a county set up in China since the Qin Dynasty, was a county of Ba County during the Three Kingdoms of Qin and Han Dynasties and the Jin Dynasty, and the location has been migrated from generation to generation, but it is within the scope of today's Chongqing City, and was renamed Ba County by the Sui Dynasty.
Jiangzhou (江州, in modern Jin Dynasty) was a first-class administrative division of the Jin Dynasty in China, including parts of present-day Jiangxi and Zhejiang provinces.
Jiangzhou (江州, in modern Jiujiang, Jiangxi) was one of the administrative divisions of the Tang and Song dynasties in China, with its seat of government in Dehua (present-day Jiujiang, Jiangxi).
Jiangzhou (江州, in modern Guangxi, Guangxi, Guangxi) was a prefecture directly subordinate to the political envoys of the Ming Dynasty of China, in present-day Chongzuo City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
Most of the time Jiangzhou refers to what is now Jiujiang, Jiangxi.
Before 1914, the duplication of county names in China at that time was very serious, reaching more than 100, which undoubtedly caused great trouble and seriously affected the passage of government decrees and social interactions, so the new government decided to make a major revision of all county names.
Among them, there is Dehua County, Jiujiang Province, Jiangxi Province, Dehua County was the same name as three counties at that time, because Dehua in Fujian was the first to be established, so Dehua County in Sichuan and Jiangxi was renamed, so when was Dehua County in Jiangxi established? In the third year of the Southern Tang Dynasty (939), the history was nearly a thousand years. Because Dehua County is the capital county of Jiujiang Province and Fuguo County, that is, Jiujiang City, so the name of this place is also quite convenient, directly use the name of the province - Jiujiang as the name of the county, Jiujiang County, but the people of this place use the name of Dehua for thousands of years, the feelings are also very deep, suddenly changed the name of the old generation is really not used to, until now, Jiujiang City, especially in the old city what Dehua Road, Dehua Community, Dehua Building, Dehua School, Dehua Middle School ... The use of the word Dehua everywhere is a kind of commemoration of the name that the city once used, of course, the vast majority of Jiujiang citizens, especially the younger generation, may have forgotten the name.
If at that time, Dehua County of Jiujiang Province was not simply a direct prefecture and county with the same name to use Jiangzhou County, it would not miss the ancient name of Jiangzhou in the millennium, when Jiujiang County was initially named "Jiangzhou District" and Jiangzhou District of Chongzuo City, Guangxi Province, and later renamed "Chaisang District", Chongzuo County was renamed Jiangzhou District in 2002, unfortunately, now Jiujiang still has a lot of Jiangzhou life name eye, Jiangzhou Avenue, Jiangzhou Vegetable Farm, Jiangzhou Town, which is also a kind of commemoration of the city's name for itself. The original Lushan District can be changed to Chaisang District, which is better than the current Lianxi, and the two ancient names have been retained
But between the administrative districts at the same level, there is still a phenomenon of the same name that does not know how to explain, this is not another turn, such as the famous Gulou District of Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province, Gulou District of Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province, Gulou District of Kaifeng City, Henan Province, and Gulou District of Fuzhou City, Fujian Province.
