Land area in Qing dynasty

The land area of the Qing Dynasty changed constantly with the changes of the times, reaching 1.3 1.600 square kilometers at the maximum.

During the Qianlong period, the land area of the Qing Dynasty included the border between the Northeast and the Russian Empire, the Ergon River, the grbic River and the Outer Xing 'an Mountains, which reached the Sea of Okhotsk and Sakhalin Island. Due north and Russia divide Sayan Ridge, Shabinayi Ridge, Chaktu and Ergon River. Northwest China and Kazakh khanate and other northwest vassal states divided Sayanling, Zhaisanpo, Ala Lake, Issyk Kul Lake and Balkhash Lake into Pamirs.

It also includes the southwest and the border between the Indian-Mongolian Empire and Himalayan countries from the Himalayas to savage mountain. Due south is roughly the dividing line between China people and Southeast Asian countries, but the Qing Dynasty still gained Namkham and Jiangxinpo in northern Myanmar. East and Japan, Ryukyu is divided into the Sea of Japan and the East China Sea, and North Korea is along Tumen River and Yalu River. The Qing Dynasty also owned Taiwan Province Province, Penghu, Hainan and the South China Sea Islands.

The reason for the large territory of Qing Dynasty;

1 has something to do with the force of the Qing dynasty. Compared with other dynasties, the military achievements of the Qing Dynasty were even greater. For example, when Huang Taiji established the Qing Dynasty, he fought in a distant place, and when Nurhachi rose, he directly swept Liaodong. Even Emperor Kangxi in his heyday once conquered Sanzheng Zhungeer in Taiwan Province Province and went to Tibet.

2. The material strength of Qing Dynasty was still relatively strong. China has experienced thousands of years of development, so in the Qing Dynasty, agricultural handicrafts and so on have been greatly developed, and the human and financial resources are among the best in the world. Due to years of war, the Qing government had to pay only nine Niu Yi cents in finance and materials.

3. The Qing Dynasty also made great achievements in border development. In order to defend its territory, the Qing Dynasty not only sent a large number of troops to Xinjiang, but also constantly reclaimed wasteland to allow more people to immigrate to Xinjiang. While solving the worries of the border, it also gives more farmers a place to live and land to farm. For the Qing government, it is killing two birds with one stone.
