Why are Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai customarily called Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai instead of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai?

Because the name of Jiangsu Province comes from "Jiangning Prefecture" and "Suzhou Prefecture". In ancient times, Jiangning was more famous and relatively wealthy like Zhejiang. It has always been called "the prosperous land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang". Habits become natural, and when Shanghai is added, it is called "Jiang, Zhejiang, and Shanghai."

The concept of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai in a narrow sense is similar in geography, culture, personality, and language. It generally refers to the similarity in dialects, customs, and culture of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai. The textile industry, service industry, and heavy industry are the main industries, especially the handicraft industry has a long history of development, and it is also a tourist attraction.
