Where is Guguo now?

There are two kinds of statements:

First, in today's Sanmenxia area of Henan.

Second, in today's Shaanxi County, Henan Province,

According to historical records, as of 655 BC (the State of Jin "destroyed the State of Guo"), the State of Guo existed in Sanmenxia area for 100 years. Zheng was destroyed by South Korea in 769 BC, and it lasted for 394 years in Henan from the founding of Xingyang to 375 BC. The two countries are geographically separated by thousands of miles. How did they originate? Is there any connection between them?

Liu Shegang, deputy director of Sanmenxia Museum, said that the Western Zhou Dynasty implemented the system of enfeoffment, and wrote that Wang's younger brother Guo Shu was in the west and in the east. At that time, the status of Guo was very prominent, and it was once ordered by the Zhou Emperor to conquer the vassals and invading ethnic minorities who did not come to pay tribute. Xiguo is located in the east of Baoji City, Shaanxi Province (annexed by Qin in 687 BC), and then moved to occupy Sanmenxia City, Henan Province and Pinglu County, Shaanxi Province, also known as the Northland. Dong Guo is now in Xingyang County, Henan Province.

Zhou Liwang's youngest son was sealed in Zheng and established the State of Zheng. Zheng's hometown is in the east of Hua County, Shaanxi Province. After Guo Zheng moved eastward, he became more and more powerful. In 765 BC, the State of Zheng destroyed Dongguo and began to develop in present-day xinzheng city. Zheng was a powerful country in the Spring and Autumn Period, and was later destroyed by South Korea, forming the present ruins of the ancient city of Zheng and Han.
