Why can Guangdong confront China in the Central Plains for a hundred years?
Guangdong is a coastal city with a long history. Before Qin and Han Dynasties, it was always outside the Chinese civilization. In addition, in the historical records, Guangdong also had its own civilization in the early days, such as the iron building country and the capital city. After the Qin Dynasty, China culture gradually penetrated into Guangdong. However, due to the local culture of Guangdong, China culture has been resisted by the local culture of Guangdong, and of course it has been accepted, but it has been wavering and even conflicting between resistance and acceptance. Guangdong was able to confront China in the Central Plains for a hundred years, not only because of cultural inconsistency, but also because of its geographical location and great reasons. 1. Was Guangdong also called South Vietnam in history?

After Qin Shihuang destroyed six countries in history, he wanted to recover Guangdong, so he sent 500 thousand troops. This is the first time in history that Guangdong has been included in Chinese territory. For a long time, there have been civil strife in the Central Plains. Guangdong, located in the south, is in a corner of peace, and the rulers of the Central Plains have no time to take care of remote areas. So at that time, a general guarding Nanhai County was appointed, and his subordinate Zhao Tuo took over Guangdong. As soon as Zhao Tuo took over Guangdong, he sent troops to block the checkpoints such as Hengpu Pass and Yangshan Pass in the north of Nanhai County, completely cutting off contact with the Central Plains and Guangdong. 2. When did the unrest in Guangdong begin?

Nanyue has a history of hundreds of years. Because the rulers of South Vietnam did not sinicize Guangdong's culture, but were assimilated by South Vietnamese, the relationship between Guangdong and the Central Plains is getting farther and farther. However, the rulers of Nanyue rely on localization, and the ruling class of Nanyue can firmly rule Guangdong and the government is harmonious. However, by the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there was civil strife in South Vietnam. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the rulers of South Vietnam paid tribute to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and Guangdong and China always lived in peace. But in the end, Zhao married a Central Plains woman after inheriting the throne and made her the Queen of South Vietnam, which seriously violated the patriarchal clan system at that time, and the ruling group of South Vietnam began to be restless. Shortly after the news of the coup in South Vietnam reached Chang 'an, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty immediately mobilized the Han army to invade Guangdong. After a period of tenacious resistance, South Vietnam surrendered to the Han army one after another. South Vietnam, which finally maintained its rule for 93 years, was destroyed by the Han Dynasty.

From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, Guangdong was turbulent for nearly 1000 years, and was also called the land of barbarians in the Central Plains. However, Chinese culture has been impacting the local culture of Guangdong. Eventually, after the Tang Dynasty, Guangdong was completely included in the circle of Chinese civilization.
