History
[edit]The area of present-day Huimin County was held by Dongyi tribes during China's Shang dynasty before being organized as the state of Qi by Jiang Ziya shortly after the establishment of the Zhou. Following the collapse of the Qin, a Qi Kingdom was reëstablished in the area during the Chu–Han Contention and early Han before being reorganized first as the Jibei Kingdom and then as Pingyuan Commandery.
By the Eastern Han, the area immediately around Huimin was organized as Yanci County. The county seat became the capital of Di Prefecture when it was rëestablished by the Tang in AD 643. By the late Tang, Di Prefecture made up part of the territory of the de facto independent Chengde jiedushis and, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Era, it formed part of the short-lived Kingdom of Zhao. After 1373, the area was administered as Le'an Prefecture.
