Chengdu becomes a municipality directly under the Central Government and Guang'an is divided into Chongqing. Is it true?

No, Chengdu has not become a municipality directly under the Central Government. Guang'an is only included in the Chongqing Economic Zone and cannot be said to be divided into Chongqing.

1. Why was Chongqing set up as a municipality directly under the Central Government?

1. Sichuan Province was overpopulated at that time, with more than 110 million people, equivalent to the combined population of the United Kingdom and France. It had a large area of ??570,000 square kilometers and governed 23 prefecture-level administrative regions and 221 county-level counties. Administrative regions are the provinces in China that have the largest number of administrative units above the county level.

2. In order to facilitate the overall management of the Three Gorges Project construction.

3. Chongqing is the largest city in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. The establishment of a municipality can give full play to the radiating role of its central city.
