What does one sea and nine continents mean?

Jiuzhou is one of the nicknames of China. Ancient China people divided the whole country into nine regions, the so-called "nine continents". According to the records in Shangshu Gong Yu, Kyushu is Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Liangzhou, Yongzhou and Yuzhou.

Jiuzhou was first seen in Gong Yu. According to legend, when Dayu controlled water in ancient times, he divided the world into nine continents, so nine continents became synonymous with the ancient world. Jiuzhou area is divided into different areas in different periods.

The ancients thought that the sky was round, and "Fiona Fang" meant the range. Therefore, "Jiuzhou Fiona Fang" means "China". That's Fiona Fang in Jiuzhou, with vast territory and abundant resources, which is a magnificent sight.
