Why not talk about past lives in Ningxia?

Ningxia is one of the birthplaces of ancient civilization in China. The remains and relics of human activities in Shuidonggou, lingwu city, Ningxia show that people lived here as early as 30,000 years ago. After Qin Shihuang unified China, he sent troops to open up wasteland in Ningxia, built the world-famous Qin Changcheng and the famous Qin Canal, which created the history of irrigation from the Yellow River. By the Han Dynasty (206-220 BC), the agricultural economy here had been quite prosperous. In the 14th year of Tang Tianbao (755), "An Shi Rebellion" broke out. Prince Hengli entered Ningxia and proclaimed himself in Lingwu, that is, Tang Suzong. At that time, Ningxia had become one of the important routes for east-west traffic and trade in China. In the first year of Baoyuan in the Northern Song Dynasty (1038), Li Yuanhao, the leader of the Tangut, established the Daxia Kingdom with Ningxia as the center, which was called Xixia in history and Xingqingfu (now Yinchuan) as the capital. After the destruction of Xixia by Mongolia, in the 24th year of Yuan Dynasty (1287), Ningxia government road was set up, and the place name "Ningxia" came into being. Ming set up Ningxia Wei and Qing set up Ningxia Fu. In the early years of the Republic of China, Ningxia Prefecture was changed to Shuofang Road, and 1929 established Ningxia Province. 1949 After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), 1954 revoked Ningxia Province, Alashan Banner was transferred to Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and the rest were merged into Gansu Province. 1958 10 Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region/kloc-0 was established on October 25th.

Ningxia before Song Dynasty

Ningxia lives in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, with Helan Mountain in the north and Liupanshan Mountain in the south. The Yellow River runs through the whole north. It has a long history and culture. It is known as "Jiangnan" in ancient and modern times. Ningxia is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization.

The excavation and discovery of Shuidonggou site in lingwu city, Changliushui site in Zhongwei and many Archean sites in Guyuan show that human beings lived and multiplied here as early as 25,000 years ago in the Paleolithic Age. Before the "Three Generations", nomadic tribes such as Beidi and Xirong lived in pastoral areas, and were successively called Porridge, Ghost Fang, Hen, Xiongnu and Hu. During the Warring States period, Ningxia began to be under the jurisdiction of the Central Plains regime.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was one of the settlements of Qiang, Rong and Xiongnu. In the 3rd century BC, after Qin Shihuang unified China, he set up Beidi County and Jiuyuan County here, and sent troops to open up wasteland to build water conservancy projects, creating a history of irrigation from the Yellow River. During the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wudi sent two missions to Ningxia, with 700,000 immigrants. The imperial court raised a large number of people to move to the next place for farming and set up counties. Between the sixteen countries, it is the territory of Daxia country built by Hao Lianbo, the leader of the Xiongnu Iron Buddha Department. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Ningxia's society became increasingly stable and its economy began to recover. During the Northern Wei and Zhou Dynasties, immigrants continued to promote the development of villages and effectively opened them again. At that time, this irrigation area on Cezanne River was called "South of Cezanne River".

After the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, in 756 AD, Prince Hengli entered Ningxia and became emperor in Lingwu (Tang Suzong). At that time, Ningxia Plain was quite rich.

In the Song Dynasty, it was based on this unique oasis that the Tangut was able to establish the country of Wan Li in the northwest, which was called "Xixia" in history.

Xixia dynasty

In A.D. 1038, Li Yuanhao, the leader of the Tangut, established the Daxia Kingdom with Ningxia as the center, which was called Xixia in history. Xingqing House (now Yinchuan City) has its capital, with a territory of "Yellow River in the east, Yumen in the west, Xiaoguan in the south and desert in the north" and "more than 20,000 square miles", which forms a tripartite confrontation with the Song, Liao and Jin regimes. In A.D. 1227, after the Yuan Dynasty destroyed Xixia, Ningxia Fu Dao was established, which was Ningxia and Ningxia Wei in the Ming Dynasty and Ningxia Fu in the Qing Dynasty.

Modern Ningxia

In the early years of the Republic of China, Ningxia was changed to Shuofang Road, which was ruled by Hui warlords of Ma Fuxiang and Ma Hongkui families for most of this period. Ningxia Province was founded in 1929. 1949 After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), 1954 revoked Ningxia Province, and Alashan Banner was placed in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and the rest were incorporated into Gansu. 1958 10 Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region/kloc-0 was established on October 25th.
