What is the relationship between Fujian and Taiwan Province?

1. Geography: Both sides of ancient Fujian and Taiwan, separated by a water, belong to the Fujian-Taiwan Peninsula of China ancient land. Taiwan Province Island and Fujian coastal islands are connected as a whole, forming a vast continental shelf plain. With the rising sea level, Taiwan Province Province and Fujian Province are separated by a Gulf Strait.

Second, consanguinity: Experts and scholars on both sides of the strait found that its basic types and production techniques are very similar to those in southern Chinese mainland. "Zuo Zhenren" and "Liu Qingren" crossed the "Dongshan Continental Bridge" which has now sunk in the vast waves from Fujian to Taiwan Province Province, and the late Homo sapiens in southern China in the Paleolithic period was their ancestors.

Third, the cultural background: Fujian people immigrated to Taiwan Province Province, and most of them were clansmen by their surnames, or lived together in the same county and government, and established "consanguineous settlement" and "hometown settlement", thus retaining the traditional culture and customs of their hometown to the maximum extent, not only making Minnan dialect in Quanzhou and Zhangzhou the main dialect in Taiwan Province Province, but also Nanyin, Gaojia Opera, Liyuan Opera and Puxian Opera, which are popular in Taiwan Province Province so far. The gods that Taiwan Province compatriots believe in, such as Mazu, Baosheng the Great, Zhang Kai the Holy King, Shimizu, the founder of Shimizu, and the Queen of Linshui, are all legends in Fujian.

4. Commercial relations: During the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the exchange of personnel between Fujian and Taiwan and the promotion of production technology were strengthened, and the bronze tools and weapons imported from Taiwan Province Province improved the local production capacity. During the Han, Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties, economic exchanges between Fujian and Taiwan became increasingly frequent, which promoted the economic development of Taiwan Province. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Taiwan Province Province began to fall under the jurisdiction of Fujian administratively, and the economic exchanges between Fujian and Taiwan became more frequent, and the business exchanges became increasingly prosperous. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Fujian's migration to Taiwan Province Province lasted for a long time, and the production technology, agricultural variety exchange and commercial trade between the two places increased sharply.

V. Law: The name of Taiwan Province Province first appeared in the late Ming Dynasty. In the 11th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1885), Taiwan Province Province was always under the jurisdiction of Fujian as the government, so it was called "Nine Fujian" in history.
