The administrative divisions of Kanto in the past dynasties were different, and their names were different, which formed a unique regional culture. However, after thousands of years of vicissitudes, it finally became an inseparable part of Chinese national culture.
The Historical Evolution of Expanding Information to Guandong in Ming Dynasty
Since the Ming Dynasty, kanto region has a new name, which is known as Kanto. This word means the place east of Shanhaiguan, standing at the junction of Hebei and Liaoning, which is generally called the northeast. It is also separated by Shanhaiguan, so it is another name for the inside (inside) and outside the customs.
The formation of the concept of Northeast China has experienced thousands of years of historical evolution, which is closely related to the Great Wall, especially the slender Shanhaiguan. When Shanhaiguan and the Great Wall were built in the early Ming Dynasty, people had a new geographical concept: the place east of Shanhaiguan was called Liaodong, which is the territory of Liaoning Province today, and it was collectively called Guanwai.
The west of Shanhaiguan, that is, the inside of the Great Wall, is collectively called Guannei, and later gradually called Guanli. There are also people living in Shandong, Hebei, Shanxi and even Jiangnan outside the customs, who often don't directly say the name of the province, but are generally called Guanli people. In the official documents and official books of the Ming Dynasty, such as the History of the Ming Dynasty, the Commissioner is also called Jidong and JD.COM, which has the same meaning as the Commissioner.
