Why didn't the prince of the Qing Dynasty use place names or country names as titles, but used nice words as titles?

According to handed down records, after the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty, a hierarchical enfeoffment system was established. Under the rule of the Zhou emperor, the titles of his vassals were divided into five different grades: male and female. After entering the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the enfeoffment system associated with patriarchal clan system gradually disintegrated. All countries have established new title systems, such as the 20-title system in the Qin Dynasty. After the Qin dynasty destroyed the six countries, it naturally extended the twenty-rank system to the whole world. At the top of the 20th grade is the Marquis.

After the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty, it inherited the title system of the Qin Dynasty to a great extent and revised it, that is, adding a title above the marquis. At that time, Marquis and Marquis both obtained their titles from their fiefs. For example, Cao Can's fief is in Pingyang, so his title is Pingyang Hou. Han Xin's fief is in Chu, and its title is King Chu. Later, after Liu Bang eliminated the princes with different surnames, under normal circumstances, the princes were only awarded to the royal family with the same surname, and the marquis with different surnames was the highest. In the Western Jin Dynasty, in addition to the same surname being made king, different surnames were made public. Later generations, on the whole, only slightly changed this title system.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang made all his sons princes, and these princes had great power. For example, Judy, the prince of Yan who was enfeoffed to Peiping, later rose up and seized the world. The titles of these princes were inherited by their eldest son, and the other sons became county kings. In the Ming Dynasty, there were many royal families' chaos, such as Hanwang's,, Zhu's and Anhua's. Heroes are titles of public, such as Wei Gong of Xu Da, Hou Ji 'an of Lu Zhongheng, and Sincerity Bo of Liu Ji. However, Wei, Ji' an and other titles. It's actually empty. These heroes have no actual fiefs.

After entering the Qing Dynasty, they changed the title system of the Ming Dynasty to some extent. One of the biggest is that the prince no longer gives specific fiefs. Among the princes of the Qing Dynasty, the Mongolian prince was the courtship of the upper class of Mongolia in the Qing Dynasty, and it was also an affirmation of their existing political status. These are another matter. In the Qing dynasty, the vassals who enfeoffed themselves no longer gave fiefs. This is more conducive to strengthening centralization and preventing the imperial clan prince from rebelling by relying on his own fiefs. There are two kinds of princes in Qing Dynasty: hereditary and non-hereditary. The hereditary prince is also known as the iron hat king. A non-hereditary prince, whose son inherited his father's title and was reduced to county king. The title of prince is often chosen with some nice words, such as Prince Rui, Prince Li, Prince Qing and so on. As for the heroes of the Qing dynasty, like princes, they only had titles and no fiefs. For example, Li Hongzhang's title was first-class Su Yibo, who was posthumously named Hou. He doesn't have his own fief.
