The main reasons for the unique style of China's primitive regional culture are as follows.

Six factors bring up regional culture

First of all, one reason is the difference in natural environment. "Regional culture" was formed in the historical period. If the traffic in history was as developed as it is today, many "regional cultures" would not exist. For example, there are many bridges, tunnels, trains, planes and cars on the Yangtze River today, so there will be no Jiangnan and Jiangbei, because it was not convenient to travel once before. Considering our country's long-term poverty and backwardness, culture has accumulated. In addition, transportation conditions limit the exchange of personnel and materials.

The second reason is immigration. When you go to a place, you can see that there are many people moving, and those who move have the initiative. Their immigrant culture will often become the mainstream culture of a place. Historically, Suzhou has been moved by immigrants from the north again and again. During the Southern Song Dynasty, a large number of immigrants moved south. Suzhou, Hangzhou, Jiaxing and Shaoxing are all immigrants. The emperor is also from Henan, and the minister is also from Henan. Monks and Taoists also settled here, so everyone learned Henan dialect, so a dialect island was formed in Hangzhou to learn northern dialect, which was different from the surrounding Wu dialect.

In addition, the third cause of "regional culture" is the influence of political power and administrative divisions. China's "regional culture" circle is not only related to the natural environment, rivers and mountains, topography and landforms, but also coincides with the enduring administrative regions. Between Suzhou and Changzhou, the usual exchanges are separate. Not only now, but before the Qing Dynasty in China, many things were usually based on administrative districts at the government level, including counties. Generally, there will be no such impact in a short time. I think these three aspects of China's "regional culture" are more important.

The fourth reason is nationality. We know that population migration is not necessarily racial migration. If it is a migration between ethnic groups, it will have a great impact on the distribution of ethnic groups.

In modern times, another reason is the influence of foreign culture. China is not a closed country. If we look at national culture and foreign national culture together, China has been influenced by foreign culture for a long time.

The last influence is religion. The influence of religion, Buddhism has been localized, Islam, Catholicism, Christianity, and some other religions, its influence is relatively great. In some special fields, the influence of religion cannot be ignored.
