The difference between going to the west and going to the east.

The difference between going to Xikou and going to Kanto lies in the migration direction and crowd: going to Xikou means that people from Shaanxi, Shanxi and Hebei migrate to Mongolian grassland, while going to Kanto means that people from the lower reaches of the Yellow River migrate to Kanto, that is, northeast China.

Breaking through the Kanto refers to the history that people from the Central Plains made a living in Kanto from Tongzhi period of Qing Dynasty to this historical period. Culturally, the Chinese nation is a farming nation. The biggest feature of farming people is that they like to stick to one acre and three points. It really takes a lot of courage to explore hard in the new world. As a social custom, traveling to the East is widely accepted.

Westbound is one of the five most famous migration events in China's modern history. In the long history of more than 400 years from the middle of the Ming Dynasty to the early years, countless Shanxi people, Shaanxi people and Hebei people left their homes, which opened up the economic and cultural channel between the hinterland of the Central Plains and the Mongolian grassland and promoted the prosperity and development of the northern region.

Social value of westward advancement;

"Westward Journey" is a bitter history of immigration, but also a history of hard struggle and entrepreneurship. Groups of immigrants left their homes and came to Mongolia outside Beikou to develop Inner Mongolia. With the process of "westward migration", Inner Mongolia outside the mouth has evolved from a traditional single nomadic society to a diversified society with both banner and county, grazing and farming.

In this evolution process, Shanxi immigrants, as the main body of immigrants, have made great contributions. Because Shanxi immigrants account for the vast majority of immigrants, the local immigrant culture is more characteristic of Jin culture, which can also be said to be the expansion of Jin culture in this area.

The flow of population promotes the spread of culture, which narrows the distance between regions and enhances the sense of identity between regions. The migration wave of "going to the west" has greatly promoted the exchanges between the central and western regions of Inner Mongolia and the mainland, further enhanced the national feelings of Mongolia and China, and had a certain positive impact on the prosperity and stability of our multi-ethnic country.
