Chongqing, as a national central city and a megacity, what is its glorious history?

Chongqing is a famous city with a long history and culture. As far back as the Paleolithic Age more than 20,000 years ago, human beings lived and multiplied in this land. By the Neolithic age, there had been dense primitive villages inhabited by eight ethnic groups, including Yi, Pu and Ju. It is these earliest Chongqing residents who created the oldest historical civilization in Chongqing.

About three or four thousand years ago, during the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, a large area centered on Chongqing had formed a powerful slave tribe alliance, collectively known as Ba. In Oracle Bone Inscriptions, there are also records about Pakistanis.

From Pakistan to Chongqing, the name has undergone many historical changes.

In the fifth year of Liang Dynasty (3 16), Ba was destroyed by Qin and became Sheba County. In the twenty-sixth year of Qin Shihuang (22 1), the world was divided into thirty-six counties, and Ba County was one of them. Ba County was called Jiangzhou in Han Dynasty. During the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was renamed Jingzhou, Yizhou, Bazhou and Chuzhou.

In the first year of Emperor Wendi (58 1), Yushui (formerly known as Jialing River) was taken as the ring city, and Chuzhou was changed to Yuzhou. This is the origin of Chongqing.

In the 16th year of Song Xiaozong (1 189), in the first month, the prince was crowned King Gong, and in February, he was granted the throne by Zen, which was a double happiness, so he was upgraded to Chongqing. Chongqing has been named for more than 800 years.
