How did the name of Sichuan Province come from?

In the fourth year of Xianping in the Northern Song Dynasty (100 1), Xia Chuan Road, located in the present Sichuan Basin, was divided into Yizhou Road, Zizhou Road, Lizhou Road and Kuizhou Road, collectively referred to as "Xia Chuan No.4 Road" or "Sichuan Road". In the meantime, there were also official posts such as Sichuan Zhi Zhi Ambassador and Sichuan Fu Xuan Ambassador, which were later called "Sichuan", hence the name Sichuan.

Sichuan, referred to as "Sichuan" or "Shu" for short, is a provincial administrative region of China people. Chengdu, the provincial capital, is located in the southwest of China, bounded by 26 03 ′-3419 ′ north latitude and 92 21′-108/2 ′ east longitude, bordering Chongqing in the east, Yunnan and Guizhou in the south, Tibet in the west and Tibet in the north.
