What is the history of the Guo family?

During the pre-Qin period, Guo mainly lived in Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Shandong, Hebei and other places. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Guo's surname had spread to the north and south, to Inner Mongolia in the north, to Gansu in the west, to Jiangsu in the east and to Sichuan in the southwest.

During the Three Kingdoms and the Jin Dynasty, the surname Guo had been distributed in the vast areas north and south of the Yangtze River. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Gushi people, with a surname of 58, entered Fujian via Jiangxi, and Gushi people Wang entered Fujian at the end of the Tang Dynasty. Guo's entry into Fujian was the second southward migration with Henan as the main body.

In the mid-Tang Dynasty, Guo Ziyi, the minister, put down the Anshi Rebellion and was named King of Fenyang. The success of ZTE brought the prosperity of surname clan and reached its peak.

Today, most Guo surnames in the south and overseas think of their ancestors. During the Northern Song Dynasty, people from the Central Plains fled south again, and Guo's footprints were almost all over the south. In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, Guo moved to Taiwan Province Province.

Extended data:

Guo's surname originates from Ji's surname. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, King Wu conferred his uncle in Baoji, Shaanxi Province, calling it the Western Guo State. When it moved eastward, the western country moved to Henan, renamed the southern country, and was destroyed in Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The history of staying in the former western country said that it was destroyed by Qin in the Spring and Autumn Period. Zhou Wuwang named his uncle Guo Shu in Dongguo, north of Xingyang, Henan. After moving eastward, the land of Dongguo was given to Zheng, who made great contributions to the eastward movement. The descendants of Dongguo moved northward to Pinglu, Shanxi Province, known as Beiguo in history, and later disappeared in Jin Dynasty.

Before and after Zhao Jianzi opened the port of Jinyang, the descendants of Guo Xu moved to Jinyang and its northern area. There are Guo surnames in the North, such as the West, the East, the South and the Lord protector, but the Guo surnames after the Lord protector are the largest and most important tribe of the Guo family in China.
