In the second year of Tang Chui Gong ( 686), the southern border of Longxi County was analyzed and the old Sui'an land was set up in Zhangzhou and Zhangpu County and Huai'en County were established. The imperial edict came under the jurisdiction of Huai'en County in Zhangzhou. In the 29th year of Kaiyuan (741), Huai'en County was revoked and the land was After entering Zhangpu County, the imperial edict belonged to Zhangpu County, Zhangzhou.

In the ninth year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1530), the second, third, fourth and fifth capitals were separated from Zhangpu County to build Zhao'an County. The administrative office is located in Nanzhao (town), which is under the jurisdiction of Zhangzhou Prefecture.

2 Divisions

After the establishment of the county in Zhao'an, the divisions of capitals and maps were followed: the second capital unified 2 maps, the third capital unified 10 maps, the fourth capital unified 5 maps, and the fifth capital unified 5 maps. . [3]

In 1701, the area below the county level was redefined and Baojia was organized. In addition to the direct jurisdiction of the county, the two capitals were unified into 2 maps, including Jinxi, Sijia, Nanpi, Jiujia, and Guanjia. There are 6 communities and 22 Bao including Pi and Xiuzhuan; there are 10 unified maps in the three capitals, including Dongguan, Xiguan, Nanguan, Beiguan, Hucuopi, Dexin, Hanying, Dongchen, Xinan, Guanpai There are 18 districts and 44 districts including Baishi, Pinglu, Baoqiao, Houling, Xidong, Changtian, Xitan, and Changpu; the four capitals are unified into 5 maps, including Caiyuanpu, Xuanzhong, Houguang, and Daxing.

During the Xuantong period of the late Qing Dynasty, it was divided into 15 autonomous regions. In the early years of the Republic of China, the old system was followed. After several changes, it was divided into 15 autonomous regions. The county was divided into 13 townships, namely Zhongshan Town, Zunhua Township, Meizhong Township, Donghu Township, Bihu Township, Sizheng Township, Baiyang Township, Jingxi Township, Pingge Township, Guanpi Town, Xiuzhuan Township Township, Qihu Town and Meilin Township, with jurisdiction over 162 Bao and 2257 A.

Under the paleogeographic conditions, the Mesozoic Era was an environment of sea and land, that is, the sea and land alternated. Due to underdeveloped strata, large areas of land rose in the late Mesozoic Era within the territory. After the formation of rock systems, seawater intruded from time to time. At the same time, the ground continued to move up and down periodically. By the late Pleistocene, due to differential ups and downs of the crust, sea transgression and regression formed three-level terraces in coastal areas, that is, stepped terrain extending from both sides along the seashore or rivers. Entering the Holocene, seawater gradually rose, submerged the Taiwan Strait, and then invaded the area. According to comprehensive data from the Provincial Hydrology Team, the regional sea advance began 7,500 years ago, and reached its peak around 6,000 years ago, when seawater flooded the Zhao'an Basin. [11]

The county is controlled by the northeast-trending fault zone (Quanzhou-Shantou fault zone and Binhai fault zone), and at the same time, it is controlled by the northwest-trending fault zone (Shanghang-Zhao'an fault zone) and its activities The influence of tectonic faults has formed mountainous areas and coastal areas. Most of the rivers are in the form of a grid-like water system network, and most of the rivers develop along northwest and northeast faults. [11]

According to research from the East China Regional Academic Symposium, the Taiwan Strait rose into land several times during the Quaternary Period, connecting the mainland and Taiwan directly. It was 11,000 years ago that the seawater retreated sharply, falling 50 meters below sea level, forming a vast coastal alluvial plain in the Taiwan Strait. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, fishermen from five counties, including Zhao'an, Dongshan and Nan'ao in Guangdong, salvaged a large number of houses in the waters near Brother Island, Nanpeng Islands and Qixing Reef (ten to dozens of kilometers away from the coast, with a water depth of 30 to 50 meters). Ash sections of walls, floor blocks, bricks, tiles and daily necessities, as well as deer and bear bones. In the adjacent area, deep on the seabed of Shanghai Bay, an 8,000-year-old terrestrial ancient forest (including ancient oil cedar) was discovered in 1986. Ancient rock paintings similar to those made 8,000 years ago were discovered in Wanshan and Dongshan counties in Pingtung County, Taiwan, proving that the coastal areas of eastern Guangdong and southern Fujian were once a sunken continent in human history.

Agriculture

Zhao'an County has a mild climate, with an annual average temperature of 21.3°C, the highest in the province. It has abundant rainfall, sufficient sunlight, abundant agricultural natural resources, and versatile production possibilities.

Zhao'an has a long history of agricultural production. During the feudal period, it was a self-sufficient or semi-self-sufficient small-scale peasant economy. The farming technology was backward, the crop yield was low, and the production development was slow. Due to population growth, per capita arable land has gradually decreased, and farmers live in poverty.

After the founding of New China, land reform was carried out to realize land to the tiller and liberate productivity. Agricultural mechanization began to be promoted in 1960. From 1966 to 1976, agricultural production was affected by the "Cultural Revolution". After 1982, the county's rural economic system was reformed, and the household contract responsibility system and a two-tier management system were established. Agricultural production recovered and developed rapidly, and farmers realized independent operations, which increased production enthusiasm and creativity. The rural industrial structure and the internal structure of agriculture have been adjusted and gradually become rationalized.

Promote new agricultural technologies, improve and introduce new varieties, expand the cultivation area of ??hybrids, adopt formula fertilization, chemical weeding, plant protection, expand irrigation and mechanical farming areas, develop fruit and animal husbandry production, and pay attention to edible fungi and winter vegetables, mainly mushrooms Cultivation. Through various measures and investments, rural areas are gradually developing in the direction of socialist market economy and modern, intensive and large-scale production. The remaining rural labor force is gradually transferred to the secondary and tertiary industries. In 1996, the county's agricultural added value was 577.05 million yuan, which was 14.8 times and 3.4 times higher than in 1949 and 1978 based on comparable prices. [14]

Industry

At the end of the Tang Dynasty and the beginning of the Song Dynasty, there were workshops for ceramics, raw salt, and camellia oil in the territory. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, shipbuilding, building materials, sugar making, wine making, and herbal fruit industries developed one after another. In the Republic of China period, cottage industry workshops were scattered in urban and rural market towns. In the 28th year of the Republic of China (1939), after the Japanese invasion, all industries were depressed. By 1949, there was only one small printing factory and some handicraft workshops in the county.

After the founding of New China, the People's Government began to resume the development of industrial production. In 1950, the county's total industrial output value was 440,000 yuan (calculated at constant prices in 1990, the same below), tax profits were 70,400 yuan, and the overall labor productivity was 293 yuan. By 1957, 26 state-owned industrial enterprises such as printing plants, power plants, sugar mills, oil mills, and rice mills had been established; 93% of urban and rural handicraftsmen in the county had joined 56 production cooperatives and groups. In that year, the national and collective industrial output value accounted for 98.6% of the county's total industrial output value of 11.88 million yuan, establishing the dominant position of public-owned industry.

In 1958, the "all-people-run industry" campaign was launched, and factories in "small clusters" surged into production. Coupled with three consecutive years of natural disasters starting in 1959, industrial production regressed and efficiency dropped significantly. Since 1963, the industry has been restored and developed after adjustment. By 1965, there were 55 industrial enterprises in the county, with a total industrial output value of 16.37 million yuan, a tax profit of 2.619 million yuan, and an overall labor productivity of 5,645 yuan. The output value of the food industry accounts for 63.3% of the total industrial output value, occupying a dominant position. Preserved fruits, candles, incense, tea, citronella oil, and drawn yarn began to become foreign trade export products. After the start of the "Cultural Revolution" in 1966, industry suffered another setback. In 1970, the total industrial output value dropped by 14% compared with 1966. After 1971, the industry was imitated in Daqing, and the Zhao'an sugar factory with a daily production capacity of 500 tons was invested in, etc., and the county's industry developed again. In 1975, the county's total industrial output value was 29.52 million yuan.

In 1981, Huadun Sugar Factory with a daily capacity of 2,000 tons was built. After 1985, through rectification and technical transformation, key state-owned enterprises such as rubber products factory, preserves factory, cannery factory, agricultural machinery factory, printing factory, and No. 1 Food Factory were expanded and built. After the implementation of reform and opening up, various ownership industries such as national, collective, individual and "three-capital" industries have flourished. Chemical plastics, building materials, textiles, machinery, feed and other industries have grown rapidly, changing the long-term industrial structure dominated by the food industry and forming An industrial system with relatively complete categories. In 1986, there were 157 industrial enterprises in the county, with a total industrial output value of 108 million yuan, breaking through the 100 million yuan barrier for the first time, with tax profits of 1.93 million yuan, and overall labor productivity of 5,018 yuan.
