Are there many immigrants in Hunan?

Many people have heard of it? Huguang fills Sichuan? But what else? Jiangxi fills Huguang? Statement. At present, the populations of Hunan and Hubei provinces, except for a few indigenous people, are mostly from other provinces. The top three students are Jiangxi, Anhui and Zhejiang. It can be seen that many people from Hunan and Hubei provinces, especially Hunan, immigrated from Jiangxi. Then, many people wonder, where did the aborigines in Hunan go?

Here, we should also talk about history and the geographical characteristics of Hunan. Anyone who knows Hunan knows that Hunan is characterized by seven mountains, two waters and one field, and many mountains are an important feature of Hunan. The existence of mountains and rivers made traffic inconvenient and life inconvenient, and the natural population in ancient times was sparse.

Judging from the archaeological data unearthed at present, there were relatively few primitive residents south of the Yangtze River in ancient times, so Hunan is also a vast country with a sparse population. After the emergence of farming civilization, the production technology has improved and the population has increased, but compared with the Central Plains, the population of Hunan is relatively sparse. Is the ancient southern region an uncivilized region? Nan Man? Area.

However, in the Song Dynasty, especially in the Southern Song Dynasty, with the war in the north, the development focus of the imperial court was difficult to shift, and Hunan also achieved unprecedented development. Although Hunan is mountainous, the fields are still very fertile. Renye Fang has advanced production technology and is willing to settle down and engage in agricultural production. At this time, the population density of Hunan has also greatly increased. ?

However, in the Yuan Dynasty, Hunan was facing a disaster. Because the Mongols oppressed the Han people and were not bound by any law, it also caused fierce resistance from the Han people, especially in Hunan. Therefore, wars between the Han people and the Mongols frequently occurred in this area of Hunan.

Frequent wars have killed many Hunan people, and many Hunan people have gone out to flee. Therefore, since the Yuan Dynasty, the population of Hunan has declined on a large scale.

Especially at the end of Yuan Dynasty, Hubei and Hunan areas also became the most frequent areas of rebel activities. At the end of Yuan Dynasty, the rebels not only rebelled against the rule of Mongolian Yuan, but also launched a merger war with each other. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang, two uprising teams, both armed by Han Chinese, wanted to unify the world and gain orthodox status. In the wars launched by Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang for the world, the people around the two lakes were most affected.

So when the Ming Dynasty was founded, Hunan was almost deserted because of nearly a hundred years of war. In the early Ming Dynasty, although some Hunan refugees returned home because of the stable situation, the population density was still very small.

As it happens, the population density of Jiangxi generation adjacent to Hunan is relatively high. Moreover, Jiangxi is also the most populous identity in the early Ming Dynasty. At that time, in order to solve the problem that Hunan was sparsely populated, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to emigrate from Jiangxi to Hunan. In addition, the government also gives many welfare policies to Hunan immigrants, such as free land distribution by the state, tax exemption and incentives from the Hunan government. Encouraged by the policy, many Jiangxi people are also willing to immigrate to Hunan spontaneously. Is this a divorce? Jiangxi fills Huguang? The origin of,
