Yunnan origin

During Xia and Shang Dynasties, Yunnan belonged to Liangzhou, one of Kyushu in China. During the Yin and Zhou Dynasties, Yunnan was called "the land of a hundred schools of thought".

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Yunnan, Guizhou and southwestern Sichuan were called "South China". During the Three Kingdoms period, some slave owners and nobles in the south occupied the land, and Zhuge Liang led the army across Shandong (now Jinsha River) to pacify the south and adjust the county system.

In the Sui Dynasty, the separatist forces were eliminated, and Yunnan was placed under the direct rule of the central government again, followed by the early Tang Dynasty, which basically restored the county scale in the Han and Jin Dynasties. In the seventeenth year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty (597), Nanzhong was reopened, and Nanning was still established, leading dozens of states, and then the Yizhou Governor's Office.

In the 16th year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1659), Wu Sangui attacked Yunnan, and Li Yong and his entourage fled to Myanmar. In the first year of Kangxi (1662), Zhu Youlang and Li Yong were arrested by Wu Sangui from Myanmar and hanged in Jinchan Temple in Kunming, the last dynasty of the Ming Dynasty fell. During the reign of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, the rebellion in Wu Sangui was shattered. During the Qing Dynasty, a large number of immigrants came to Yunnan to return home, but they still maintained the chieftain system in some border areas.

1950 In March, the People's Government of Yunnan Province was established.
