Xianyang or Chang 'an comes first?

Xianyang administrative region was established in Xia Dynasty 265,438+0 century ago. The west of the city is a fief, the southeast is under the jurisdiction of Hu, and the north is Yi and other primitive clan tribes, belonging to Kyushu Yong State.

During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, it developed to Thailand, Shanxi, Chengdu, Dog House and other countries, and the urban area was in the southeast of the city.

In the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was a blue country, followed by a rich and high suburb.

The Spring and Autumn Period belongs to the Qin Dynasty and is called Weiyang.

During the Warring States Period, Qin Xiaogong moved nine times in the twelfth year (the first 350 years), and established the capital of Qin in Xianyang from Liyang (now between Guanzhuang Village and Gucheng Village in Wutun Town, yanliang district, Xi City) (now between Yaodian Street, Qinhan New Town, Xixian New Area and Zhengyang Street in Weicheng District).

The origin of the name

There are several opinions about the origin of Xianyang place names. One is that Xianyang has mountains in the north and water in the south, which is "all mountains and rivers are sunny", so it is called Xianyang.

One argument is that Xianyang was formed by the merger of Xianheng and Liyang, so it is called Xianyang; There is also a saying that the original meaning of "salty" is used. Because wars often occur in this place, all the people are soldiers and armed against the enemy, so this place is called Xianyang.
