Shaanxi Province, abbreviated as "Shaanxi" or "Qin", is the ancient capital of the province, Xi'an. Shaanxi Province has a long history and profound cultural heritage, and is one of the important birthplaces of Chinese civilization. On this basis, as of the end of 2018, Shaanxi Province has 10 districted cities under its jurisdiction, including 30 municipal districts, 72 counties, and 5 county-level cities. Among them, as far as Baihe County is concerned, the population of the zong is more than 200,000, which belongs to the prefecture-level Ankang City, which is located at the junction of Shaanxi and Hubei provinces. In ancient Chinese history, the establishment of Baihe County began in 1476 AD, named after the Baishi River in the territory, which has a history of more than 500 years. Let's take a look at Baihe County.

First, Baihe County belongs to Ankang City, Shaanxi Province. Geographically, Baihe County is located in the eastern part of Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, in the eastern part of Bashan Mountain. It is bordered by the Han River in the north, Yunxi County in Hubei Province across the river, Yun County and Zhushan County in Hubei Province in the east and south, and Xunyang County in the west, that is, it is located at the junction of Hubei and Shaanxi Provinces. As far as the history of Baihe County is concerned, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the early Warring States period, the area belonged to the territory of the Chu State. By the middle of the Warring States period, the State of Qin defeated the State of Chu, and the area around present-day Baihe County in Shaanxi Province became the territory of the State of Qin. In 221 BC, Qin Shi Huang established the Qin Dynasty. Under the county system, the area around present-day Baihe County in Ankang City belonged to Hanzhong County. During the Han Dynasty, the area still belonged to Hanzhong County. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the 24th year of Jian'an (219 AD), it was changed to Xicheng Commandery (present-day Ankang).

At this stage of the History of the Three Kingdoms, the Three Kingdoms of Wei shu and Wu were established, and after the Battle of Hanzhong, Liu Bei repelled Cao Cao and incorporated the region into the territory of Shu Han. However, in the middle and late Three Kingdoms period, the area was also known as the territory of Cao Wei and belonged to Weixing County. Weixing County belonged to Jingzhou, which was the seat of present-day Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, and yunxian county in Hubei Province. After Sima Yan established the Western Jin Dynasty, Zhao County belonged to Weixing County. During the Northern Zhou Dynasty, The county was renamed Fengli County, which belonged to Xiyu County, and the area around present-day Baihe County belonged to it. From the Tang Dynasty to the beginning of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the area around present-day Baihe County belonged to Fengli County, Junzhou. Later Tang, Jin, Later Han, Later Zhou to Song, Fengli County belonged to Jinzhou (Ankang). After the establishment of the Song Dynasty, Fengli County was incorporated into Yun County, and the area around present-day Baihe County was changed to Yun County.

Finally, in 1472 AD, the Ming Dynasty established Baihe Fort in the eastern part of Xunyang County. In the twelfth year of Chenghua (1476), Baihe County was renamed Baihe County, named after the Baishi River in the territory, and was subordinate to the newly established Yunyang Prefecture (present-day Yun County, Hubei), and the following year it was changed to Jinzhou. As far as the Baishi River is concerned, the south bank tributary of the Han River, a tributary of the Yangtze River, originates from Hanjiashan (formerly Gefeng Township) in Nanjia Town, Baihe County, Shaanxi Province, with a length of 88 kilometers and a basin area of 807 square kilometers. In 1583, it was renamed Xing'an Prefecture and Belonged to Baihe County. In 1782, during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Xing'an Prefecture was upgraded to Xing'an Prefecture, which still administered Baihe County. In 1914, Baihe County belonged to Hanzhong Province. In 1928, Baihe County was directly under the administration of Shaanxi Province. Since 2000, Ankang District has been changed to Ankang City, and Baihe County has been under the jurisdiction of Ankang City. As of the end of 2018, Baihe County had a total area of 1,450 square kilometers and a total population of about 215,000 people. What do you think about that?
