historical changes
During the Three Kingdoms period, the concept of state appeared. Chang 'an, as the capital, is included in Sizhou, which is what we often call Li Si. Both Shu County and Hanzhong County are classified as Yizhou.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Hanzhong, which was divided by Zhang Lu, was actually not an independent territory, but a county in Yizhou. Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan six times, and also sent troops from Hanzhong to directly attack Li Si.
However, when the Western Jin Dynasty was unified, the court set aside Ba County and Hanzhong County from Yizhou and established Liangzhou. Hanzhong county at this time has nothing to do with Yizhou. Soon after, during the Sixteen Kingdoms Period in Wuhu, the regime that enfeoffed Shu also held Hanzhong County in its hands.
Later, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the world was in chaos, the flag of the king was changed to the head of the city, and the administrative divisions were extremely chaotic. Hanzhong county has also been divided and divided, neither belonging to Guanzhong nor Yizhou.
Until the Sui Dynasty unified the world, Shu was divided into Ba Han and Hanzhong was changed to Hanchuan County, which also existed independently. In the Tang dynasty, the division of labor was more detailed. Hanzhong belongs to Shannan West Road and changed back to Liangzhou. Chang 'an in the Tang Dynasty, where the capital is located, belongs to the province of Gyeonggi, and Hanzhong, Shannan West Road, is only as good as it is.
During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period after the Tang Dynasty, there were the pre-Shu Wang regime and the post-Shu Meng regime, and their territory also included Hanzhong. So here we can find that as long as there is a separatist regime in Sichuan, it will inevitably take Hanzhong as a barrier. From the Han Dynasty to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, for nearly a thousand years, no matter how the region is divided, Hanzhong belongs to Shu, which should be recognized by everyone.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, Chang 'an was not the capital, but it did not belong to the same area.
Chang 'an belongs to Yongxing Army Road, while Xingyuan House where Hanzhong is located belongs to Lizhou Road. Later, during the confrontation between Song and Jin Dynasties, the Southern Song Dynasty basically continued the division of the Northern Song Dynasty without much change.
Until the Yuan Dynasty was unified, we can be sure of this. Although Hanzhong was separated from Shu County, it never belonged to the same district as Chang 'an and Xianyang. After the unification of the Yuan Dynasty, the provincial system was implemented, which was the first in China.
The names of Shaanxi Province and Sichuan Province also appeared from the Yuan Dynasty. Hanzhong County, also from the Yuan Dynasty, belongs to Chang 'an Mobile and enters Shaanxi Province, which is called Xingyuan Road in Shaanxi Province.
Wait until the Ming and Qing dynasties, it will be more direct, even the word "province" is gone, and it will directly become Hanzhong House in Shaanxi! Therefore, although Hanzhong area belongs to the category of Shu for a long time in history, Hanzhong has been under Shaanxi since the name Shaanxi appeared, so it makes sense for Hanzhong people to say that they are native Shaanxi people.
