This, from another level, also shows that there is some inexplicable relationship between Nanjing and Anhui Province. In fact, the current situation is due to the historical administrative planning and the inheritance of cultural language.
The Song Dynasty established a close relationship between Nanjing and many cities in Anhui. Nanjing has a very long history. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Chu Weiwang wanted to use the moat of the Yangtze River as a barrier to plot the world, so he built a stone city and named it Jinling City. During the Three Kingdoms period, Wu became the first feudal force with its capital here. In the long river of history, many dynasties chose Nanjing as the capital, so the history and culture of Nanjing City are very strong.
Nanjing became attached to Anhui Province as early as the Song Dynasty when Jiangnan East Road was divided. At that time, Jiangnan East Road included Xuanzhou, Huizhou, Chizhou and other cities in Anhui, and the capital of Jiangnan East Road was now Nanjing, then Jiankang House.
The provincial system of the Yuan Dynasty once again separated Nanjing from many cities in Anhui. The Mongolian army went south, perished the Southern Song Dynasty, and finally settled for decades. Mongolian rulers practice their own political system and administrative divisions in their ruling areas, and the provincial system is one of them. However, this system is rather crude, and the living habits and regional characteristics of each region are not considered in detail when dividing provinces, so many problems have arisen.
After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty made Nanjing its capital and Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown was Fengyang County, Chuzhou, Anhui Province, Zhu Yuanzhang drew a South Zhili with Nanjing as the center, covering parts of Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and even Shanghai. The whole South Zhili was almost as big as Anhui and Jiangsu provinces. This southern Zhili centered on Nanjing and radiated the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty to the surrounding areas.
During this period, Nanjing and Anhui have become difficult areas to give up. And because a large number of Huaixi military groups headed by Zhu Yuanzhang settled in Nanjing, there were many Anhui people in Nanjing at that time. It can be said that Zhu Yuanzhang brought Nanjing and Anhui closer.
During the Qing Dynasty, Anhui and Jiangsu were forced to separate. In the Qing Dynasty, administrative divisions experienced many changes. Nanzhili, once the Amin dynasty, changed several times and finally became Anhui and Jiangsu in the fifth year of Kangxi (1666). However, this change is unscientific in theory, which leads to a comprehensive cultural and historical difference between the north and the south in the two provinces. For example, the marriage customs of Jiangsu, Xuzhou and Suzhou are quite different, while the dietary preferences of Anhui, Fuyang and Anqing are also told by chickens and ducks.
Moreover, it was not until the 25th year of Qianlong (1760) that Anhui Buzheng moved from Nanjing to Anqing, Anhui. Before that, Anhui's political envoys stayed in Nanjing, which directly led to Nanjing's great influence on Anhui. Coupled with the border between Nanjing and Anhui, it has a great impact on the current cities such as Maanshan, Wuhu and Xuancheng.
After the founding of New China, Nanjing became the provincial capital, which made many Jiangsu cities unconvinced, although during the Republic of China, Nanjing became the capital of the National Government. However, after the founding of New China, the administrative divisions of Beijing and Nanjing were put on the agenda. 1952 In September, Nanjing municipality was merged with the administrative regions of southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu to form Jiangsu Province. 1953, 1 year1October, the People's Government of Jiangsu Province was established, and Nanjing was designated as the capital of Jiangsu Province.
However, although it was established in Jiangsu Province, the problems that once appeared in the Qing Dynasty still exist. The cultural differences between the north and the south in Jiangsu Province exist and collide fiercely, and problems and spits follow. Nanjing, the provincial capital, bears the brunt and is often vomited by other cities in Jiangsu. Indeed, Nanjing's economic level is not top-notch in Jiangsu Province. Yangzhou and Suzhou are unique in culture and only occupy an important position in politics, which inevitably makes other small partners in Jiangsu Province unconvinced.
Conclusion: Nanjing did exist as an Anhui provincial association in Qing Dynasty, and Anhui provincial administrative officials stayed in Nanjing for a long time. However, this kind of thing no longer appeared in the twenty-five years of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty. However, after the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the relationship between Anhui and Nanjing was complicated. Although it can't be said to be a whole, the influence between them can't be clearly explained in one or two sentences.
Therefore, many netizens call Nanjing the emblem of Beijing, which is a special ridicule and joke on the relationship between Nanjing and Anhui!
