Taiwan Province Province has another name in the world. 1590, the Portuguese sailed through the Taiwan Province Strait and looked at the beautiful treasure island, so they couldn't help calling it "TihaFormosa". The name given by the colonist to Taiwan Province Province was later adopted by western countries.
According to well-documented historical data, the name "Taiwan Province Province" has only appeared for more than 300 years. However, historical records prove that people on both sides of the strait have long called Taiwan Province a treasure island, and there are nearly ten names for Taiwan Province Province in history. However, the different names reflect the concern and expectation of the Chinese nation for the Treasure Island in Taiwan Province Province.
When the state machine appeared in ancient China, China was divided into Kyushu administration, which was recorded in Shang Yu Shu Gong Pian, one of the earliest history books in China. Yangzhou in Kyushu governs the Huaihe River in the north and the sea in the east. In the book, "Yi Fu" refers to Taiwan Province Province. "Island Yi" is the first name in Taiwan Province Province. In the thirty-third year of Kangxi (1642), Gao Gonggan specialized in the local records of Taiwan Province Province, indicating that Yangzhou in Xia and Shang Dynasties included Taiwan Province Province.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the maritime traffic was developed, so there were many legends about the sea. Among them, the legend that alchemist Xu Fu sought immortality medicine for Qin Shihuang has been passed down to this day. The three sacred mountains mentioned in Xu Fu's book recorded in Historical Records are Penglai, the abbot and Yingzhou. Later generations thought Yingzhou was Taiwan Province Province. Chui fook didn't come back, but there were more and more cross-strait exchanges in later years.
As a special historical geography book, Taiwan Province Province is recorded in the Book of the First Han Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, records about Taiwan Province Province began to increase. There is such a record in "Geography before Han Dynasty" that there are "Easterners" overseas in Huiji, which are divided into more than 20 countries and "look at them when they are old". Later, many scholars thought that "East" should refer to Taiwan Province Province. In the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Taiwan Province Province is divided into three parts, namely, North Taiwan Province Province in the east, Middle Taiwan Province Province in Yizhou and South Taiwan Province Province in Yizhou. On the map of Taiwan drawn by Dutch Lins Gordon 300 years ago, Taiwan Province Province was also divided into three islands. Dividing Taiwan Province Province into three parts shows that we have a deeper understanding of Taiwan Province Province.
The situation in Taiwan Province Province was directly described during the Three Kingdoms period. During the Three Kingdoms period, Dongwu was located in the south of the Yangtze River, and its jurisdiction included Huiji and the southeast coastal areas. Soochow has close relations with overseas countries. It is mentioned in the History of the Three Kingdoms that in the second year of Huanglong (230), Sun Quan sent troops to sea for an expedition to Yizhou. Many scholars believe that Yizhou is Taiwan Province Province. Shen, the magistrate of Linhai County, Soochow, the Three Kingdoms, is the earliest Taiwan Province provincial scholar. In his Coastal Soil and Water Records, there is a special record of Taiwan Province Province, which was called Yizhou at that time, but this book has been lost, and its main content is recorded in Taiping Magnolia. Judging from the contents of the records, this is the most complete written information about Taiwan Province Province at that time. Through "Coastal Soil and Water Records", many mainlanders who are far away from the Taiwan Province Strait know the specific situation of Taiwan Province Province, which is limited but extremely rare.
The ambitious Emperor Yang Di did not have many achievements to boast about during his reign, but he had a special preference for wars at home and abroad. Of course, he also fought against Taiwan Province Province, and Taiwan Province Province has long been concerned by previous generations. According to the biography of Sui Shu Dongyi, Yang Di made an expedition to Ryukyu and Autumn in the 6th year of Daye (6 10). Where is Ryukyu? It has always been controversial. But most scholars believe that Ryukyu is Taiwan Province Province, not Ryukyu. Anyway, the Sui Dynasty knew a lot about Taiwan Province Province. It is clearly recorded in Biography of Foreign Countries in the History of Song Dynasty that there is an island called Penghu in the east of Quanzhou, facing the fireworks. There are similar records in Zhao's Zhufanzhi, but the content is not detailed.
Tainan is the earliest developed area in Taiwan Province Province, so the name of Taiwan Province Province comes from the name of Tainan. The Laiya people who originally lived in Tainan were called "Taiyan" or "Tai 'an" when introducing Taiwan Province Province, while the Dutch spelled it "Tai 'an" and the mainland immigrants pronounced it "Tai 'an". Therefore, due to different pronunciations, it is called "Taiwan official", "big official", "big circle", "big bay" and "big injustice" in Tainan area. Later, it was changed from "Taiwanese" in Minnan dialect to "Taiwan Province Province", and the referred area also expanded from Tainan to the whole Taiwan Province Province. From the Ming Dynasty, the name "Taiwan Province Province" became popular. In The Journey to the West written by Zhou Ying, a Fujian native in the Ming Dynasty, Taiwan Province Province was called "Taiwan official". During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (1573- 16 19), "Taiwan Province Province" appeared in the official documents of the imperial court. Zhang Mei's book "Win-Win Bai Yong" in Qing Dynasty pointed out: Zhou Ying called Taiwan Province Province "an Taiwan Province native", "This is a mistake caused by Minnan dialect, and the name of Taiwan Province Province entered China from then on." The name "Taiwan Province Province" comes from this and should be more objective.
In today's western world, there are still some people who often call Taiwan Province Province "Formosa", which is a name from colonial times. 1590, when the Portuguese sailed through the Taiwan Province Strait, they looked at the beautiful treasure island and could not help calling it "Iha Formosa". This name was later adopted by western countries, and China people naturally rejected it because of its colonial color.
