Kyushu is all those cities, which Kyushu is Kyushu

Refers to the Kyushu recorded in the Chinese Shangshu Yu Gong as: Ji, Henan, Yong, Yang, Gon, Xu, Liang, Qing, Jing.

According to the records in Leya Shidi, there are no green and beams, but secluded and camps.

According to the records in Zhou Li, Changing Officials, and Staffing Fang's Family, there is no Liang and Xu, but there are You, and He.

Kyushu】 1In ancient times, China was divided into Kyushu. Accounts vary.

Shu Yu Gong is written as Ji, Gong, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu, Liang, Yong; "Erya Shidi" has secluded, Yingzhou but no green, Liangzhou; "Zhou Li, Xia Guan, Staff" has secluded and merged states but not Xu and Liangzhou. Later, "Kyushu" was used to refer to the whole world and the whole of China. "Chu Ci Lisao":

Thinking about Kyushu's vastness, is it only that it has a woman? Song Luyou's poem "Shi'er": "The dead Yuan knows that everything is empty, but the sorrow is not the same as Kyushu."

Qing Gong Zizhen's "Jihai Miscellaneous Poems" No. 125: "Kyushu is angry and thunderous, and ten thousand horses are sad." Guo Moruo's poem "Praise Lei Feng":

Twenty-two years into permanence, Kyushu surnamed Yang Yinglie. ”

2.Refers to Great Kyushu. China is only one of these states.

During the Warring States Period, Zou Yan called China Chixian Shenzhou, saying that "the nine outside of China, such as Chixian Shenzhou, is the so-called Kyushu." See "Historical Records: The Biography of Mencius Xunqing". "Huainanzi Topographical Training":

What is Kyushu? The southeast Shenzhou is called agricultural soil, the south is called fertile soil, the southwest Rongzhou is called Taotu, the west is called Yizhou is called the soil, the middle is Jizhou is called the middle soil, the northwest Taizhou is called the fertile soil, the north is called the Chengtu, the northeast Bozhou is called the hidden soil, and the east Yangzhou is called the Shentu. Yang Shuda thought that the Kyushu cited from the middle of Jizhou and the "Yugong" Kyushu of Jizhou are even the same, and the rest are different in name; It is called Southeast Shenzhou, which is consistent with Zou Yan's Chinese name called Chixian Shenzhou; It is suspected that this article is taken from Zou Yan's book, and the name of Kyushu is what Zou Yan called Kyushu.

See "Jiweiju Primary School Shulin Zou Yan Kyushu Examination".

Kyushu is an ethnic regional concept. Also known as Han Land, Middle Earth, Shenzhou, and Twelve Prefectures, it first appeared in the classic book "Shangshu Yugong" in the pre-Qin period, and is the concept of ethnic regions of the ancestors of the Han nationality in China since ancient times. Since the Warring States period, Kyushu has become a synonym for ancient China, and since the Han Dynasty, it has become a synonym for the Han region, also known as "Han land Kyushu".

Since ancient times, the ancestors of the Han nationality have divided the original residence of the Han people into nine regions, the so-called "Kyushu". According to the records of "Shangshu Yugong", the order of Kyushu is: Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yuzhou, Liangzhou, and Yongzhou.

Erya has Youzhou and Yingzhou, but there is no Qingzhou and Liangzhou. "Zhou Li" has Youzhou and Bingzhou, but there is no Xuzhou and Liangzhou.

Han land division

Qingzhou, Qingzhou is the name of the East, and Qingzhou lives in the East. Dongyue Taishan is the first of the five mountains, so Kyushu is compared to the "nine palace grid", Yuzhou is in the middle, the other eight states are like the eight trigrams represent the eight directions, and Qingzhou is in the east, it is the first in addition to Yuzhou, according to the geographical location of Kyushu, according to the clockwise direction from Yuzhou to Qingzhou, in turn Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Liangzhou, Yongzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou.

In the Han Dynasty, the scope of Kyushu included Lingnan and Gansu, and since then, the geographical scope of "Han Land and Kyushu" has not changed dramatically for more than 2,000 years.

Kyushu refers to Yuzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Liangzhou, Yongzhou, Jizhou, and Yanzhou.

This is because King Wu of Zhou annexed Xuzhou to Qingzhou and Liangzhou to Yongzhou. At the same time, because the area of Jizhou is too large, it is divided into Youzhou and Merge State.

In fact, it was not until the Han Dynasty that the geographical scope of Kyushu was determined. It's just that Kyushu at this time, from the perspective of geographical scope, is no longer limited to the land of China, but has a bit of a global perspective.
