Liaocheng not only radiates and drives the economic development of western Shandong, but also is an important channel for economic, scientific and cultural exchanges with inland provinces such as Shanxi and Hebei.

As early as the primitive society, our ancestors lived here and engaged in agricultural production. Eight Longshan cultural cities have been discovered in the city, about six or seven thousand years ago. They are the largest Longshan cultural city discovered in China so far. It can be seen that the west bank of Guji River was an extremely important political and cultural center at that time. During the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, Liaocheng's economy and society developed rapidly, and its agriculture and handicrafts were relatively developed. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Liaocheng was an important city in the west of Qi. During the Warring States Period, Liaocheng was a place where princes fought. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, economy and culture developed rapidly, and people's living standards improved greatly. Copper, iron and aluminum are the main production tools, and wells are used to solve drinking water and irrigation problems. Wealthy families travel by car and horse, bronze mirrors and fuming stoves become necessities, and high-tech pottery can be made. Culture and education have developed rapidly, and many famous military generals have been trained. During the Three Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there were frequent wars and many natural disasters. During the period of partial reunification, the society was relatively stable, and economic and cultural undertakings were restored and developed to a certain extent. In the fourth year of Sui Dynasty (AD 608), Yang Di dug the Grand Canal, which facilitated the traffic and water conservancy in the city and promoted the economic and cultural development. Linqing was an important transportation hub at that time. The Tang Dynasty was a period of all-round political, economic and cultural development, especially education, which produced many celebrities. The Ming and Qing Dynasties were a glorious period in Liaocheng history. From the 26th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1289) to the 9th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (14 1 1), the Huitong River flowed again and again. The Grand Canal, which runs through the north and south of China, has brought great vitality to the development and prosperity of Liaocheng. Linqing and Liaocheng (now Dongchangfu District) have become nine major cities along the route. Liaocheng has "more than 100,000 fireworks in the city", where merchants gather, businesses flourish, sails are like forests, reeds meet, cars and horses flow endlessly, and goods pile up like mountains. The foreign businessmen's guild hall stands by the river, with tall buildings and famous temples. Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty came to talk four times, and Emperor Qianlong stayed in Liaocheng nine times. Commercial trade in the city is prosperous, and agriculture, textile, printing, pen making, handicraft production, brick kiln, food, shipbuilding and water transportation are developed. Before the founding of the Republic of China, members of the League secretly organized people to carry out innovations in the city. During the Republic of China, Liaocheng was the political, cultural and center of western Shandong. In the early years of the Republic of China, there were cotton research institutes, workshops and experimental factories, roads were built, and automobile transportation companies, electric light companies, banks, weaving factories, hospitals, government middle schools and normal schools were established. In the middle and late period of the Republic of China, agriculture, industry and commerce suffered great damage due to warlord melee and Japanese invasion. 1937 After the July 7th Incident, Liaocheng became the frontier of the Anti-Japanese War. More than 60,000 anti-Japanese armed forces fought against the Japanese for more than 80 times, defending and recovering a large area of land, and the people of Liaocheng made great contributions and sacrifices to the victory of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. During the War of Liberation, Liaocheng was the rear base of China People's Liberation Army. When Liu Deng's army marched into Dabie Mountain and crossed the Yellow River, 37,000 people in the city joined the army. During the Huaihai Campaign and Nandu, the people of China organized transport teams and stretcher teams to fully support the PLA's operations and made great contributions to the victory of the war. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Liaocheng people inherited the excellent historical traditions, worked hard, made pioneering efforts, and made great achievements in all walks of life.
