How did Qichun County get its name?

Analysis:

Qichun was named after "Oenanthe javanica", also known as Qiyang, Qichang and qi zhou in history. Qichun was established as early as 20 1 year BC (the sixth year of the Western Han Dynasty), and its ancient civilization can be traced back to the Neolithic Age. It is one of the oldest counties in eastern Hubei. In 47 A.D. (the 23rd year of Jianwu in the Eastern Han Dynasty), the county was cut and the Hou State was established, and it was spread to the third generation, except the county. In 378 (Taiyuan three years in the Eastern Jin Dynasty), the county name was "Qiyang"; In 486 (the fourth year of Yongming in Southern Qi Dynasty), Fu Guang County was named "Qichang", and in 598 (the eighteenth year of Sui Dynasty), it was renamed "Qichun". 1367 (the ninth year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty), the "qi zhou" was established, and the county was cut and the county was led by the state. After the founding of the People's Republic of China 19 12, Kezhou was returned to Qichun County. Since the Han Dynasty, Qichun has a prominent strategic position because it is located at the "tail of Aconitum" and controls the Yangtze River. He has always been valued by the authorities, and has set up county, state, government, provincial and administrative governors.

Inspection of China District Commissioner's Office; In the Ming Dynasty, the defensive roads of Wei and Xiajiang River were still located, and Jing moved to Zhisuo. At that time, the jurisdiction included Qichun, Xishui, Luotian, Yingshan and most areas of Wuxue City. Historically, Qichun has long been the seat of counties (prefectures, prefectures, prefectures) and county-level institutions, and has always been the political, economic, cultural and military center of eastern Hubei. After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), Qichun resumed the county system and moved to Huanggang City, Hubei Province.
