An Interpretation of the Origin of the 18th National Title in the History of China;

1, Xia: It is said that he was divined because he called himself "Xia". According to the records of historians, the son of Yu was called "Xia" only after he moved westward to Daxia (Fenyue area in the south of Shanxi).

2. Shang: According to legend, the ancestor of Shang (now Shangqiu South, Henan Province) helped Yu to control water and was divined by Shang, and later called his tribe (or tribe) by "Shang".

When the soup goes out, it is in the name of "Shang". After Pan Geng moved to Yin (now northwest of Anyang, Henan Province), it was also called Yin or Yin Shang.

3. Zhou: When the Zhou tribe arrived at Gu Gong's father, they moved to (now Qishan, Shaanxi). After the Yin Dynasty was destroyed, Zhou was taken as the name of the dynasty. At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, its capital was built in Gao (now southwest of Shaanxi).

Later, Pingdong moved to Luoyi (now Luoyang, Henan Province), and was named "Western Zhou" and "Eastern Zhou" because it was in the east of pickaxe.

4. Qin: According to historical records, this is an ancient tribe. Its leader is Zhou Yangmayou, who was given the surname "Won" by Zhou, and was given a small piece of land (now Tianshui County, Gansu Province, nicknamed Longxiyu).

Later, Xiang saved Zhou Yougong and was made a vassal. Qin Shihuang unified the six countries and established the State of Qin.

5. Han: Xiang Yu named Liu Bang as the king of Hanzhong. Later, Liu Bang defeated Xiang Yu and unified China, with the title of "Han". Chang 'an is the capital of the early Han Dynasty and Luoyang is the capital of the later Han Dynasty, so there are "Western Han Dynasty" and "Eastern Han Dynasty" in terms of capital.

6. Wei: Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty once named Cao Cao "Duke Wei" and "Wang Wei", and Cao Pi was called "Wei" after the Han Dynasty. Cao was given a title by the royal family and was also called "Cao Wei" in history.

7. Shu: Actually, the regime established by Liu Bei is called "Han", not "Shu". He thinks he is a descendant of Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, and his self-styled regime is a continuation of the Han regime, but historians disagree. Because Liu Bei regards Sichuan as his own activity area, and Shu refers to Sichuan, his political history is called "Shu", also called "Shu Han".

Wu: Sun Quan lives in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. In history, when Wu was founded, Cao Wei named Sun Quan as "King of Wu", so it was called "Sun Wu" in history. Because it is located in the East, it is also called "Soochow".

9. Jin Dynasty: Si Mazhao forced Cao Huan, the Emperor of Wei Yuan, to make him a "Duke of Jin". After the destruction of Shu, he became the King of Jin. Later, his son Siyan inherited his title, forcing Wei Emperor to abdicate and stand on his own feet as emperor, with the title of "Jin".

10, Sui: Yang Zhong, the father of Yang Jian, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty, and one of the generals in the twelve counties of Western Wei Dynasty. It was once named "following the country" by the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Later, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty also adopted this kind of divinatory image, which was called "following the DPRK".

He thinks that "sui" means to go, and he dare not change the word "sui" from the word "sui" ominously. However, the national luck of the Sui Dynasty did not change because of this, and three generations perished.

1 1, Tang: Li Yuan's grandfather, one of the twelve generals in the Western Wei Dynasty. He was awarded the title of "Duke of Tang", and his title was passed on to Liu Yun and Li Yuan. After Jinyang captured Chang 'an, he set up Youyang, and the Tang and Yuan Dynasties were named "King of the Tang Dynasty", and then Youyang was abolished to establish the Tang Dynasty.

12, Liao: The original name of Liao was "Qidan", but it was changed to "Liao" because it lived in the upper reaches of Liao River. There is also a saying that "the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the ground is flat." As for historical records, "Liao takes the name of iron art" should be invented by Jin people.

13, Song Dynasty: Chen Qiao mutiny, when the yellow robe was added to the body, it was the history of Songzhou (now Shangqiu, Henan Province) returning to Germany, and Songzhou was the land of Longxing, hence the name "Song".

14, Xixia: Tuoba Sigong occupied Zhou Xia (now Hengshan County, Shaanxi Province), which was named "Daxia" after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Because in the west, the Song people called it "Xixia".

15, Gold: Golden City is located in Ning, Jing Hui (now south of Acheng District, Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province), and is said to be water gold. In Jurchen language, the word "gold" means "crushing a tiger".

16, Yuan: According to Yuan Shi, the name of Yuan was decided by Kublai Khan. It is the "Yuan" in the sentence "Great Gan Yuan" in the Book of Changes, which means great and first. However, some people think it is related to Mongolian customs and totems, while others think it is related to Buddhism.

17, Ming: Zhu Yuanzhang was one of the insurgents at the end of Yuan Dynasty, which was developed by inheriting Guo Zixing, and Guo Zixing belonged to An Baili School. The White Lotus Sect declared that "darkness is about to pass, and light is coming" to inspire people to oppose the rule of the dark Yuan Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang admitted that he was a member of Anbaili Rebel and the left deputy marshal of Han Liner, Wang Xiaoming. After Zhu Yuanzhang came to power, the title of the country was "Ming". In order to show that he is the legal heir, he continued to win people's hearts with the word "Ming".

It is also said that the word "Daming" has long appeared in the Confucian classics "Book of Changes" and "Book of Songs". In the Book of Changes, it means that light goes round and round, achieving the four directions of heaven and earth. In the Book of Songs, it is a tribute to Zhou Wenwang's achievements.

18, Qing Dynasty: Manchu is a branch of the Jurchen nationality, and the Jurchen nationality established the Jin State in the Northern Song Dynasty. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchen forces regained their strength and rebuilt the State of Jin (the later Jin Dynasty). In order to expand outward, the late Jin Dynasty severed its vassal relationship with the Ming Dynasty, and Huang Taiji changed "Nuzhen" to "Manchuria" and "Jin" to "Qing".

In the Song Dynasty, Jurchen was controlled by the Khitans. His generation pointed out that the word "Liao" means "iron" in the Khitan language, so it was named "Jin", which means it is stronger than iron and can overwhelm Liao. There are different opinions on the reasons why "Jin" changed to "Qing". Some people think that Huang Taiji wants to avoid causing sharp contradictions.

It is also said that Nurhachi rode a big green horse when he fled in his early years, and the horse was exhausted. Nurhachi said sadly, "Daqing, Daqing, I will win the world in the future. My country's name is Daqing."
