Yang County
Yang County, or Yangxian (simplified Chinese: 洋县; traditional Chinese: 洋縣; pinyin: Yáng Xiàn), is a county in Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province, China. The county spans an area of 3,206 square kilometres (1,238 sq mi), and has a population of about 445,000. Yang County lies within the Shaanan region, on the easternmost portion of the Hanzhong Basin, bordered by the Daba Mountains to the south, and the Qin Mountains to the north.
The area of present-day Yang County has been inhabited for approximately 7,000 years, since the Neolithic period. The area belonged to the Liang dynasty.
Prior to being annexed into the Jin dynasty, the area was organized as Chenggu County (simplified Chinese: 城固县; traditional Chinese: 城固縣). During the Jin dynasty, the area was organized as Xingdao County (simplified Chinese: 兴道县; traditional Chinese: 興道縣) and Huangjin County (simplified Chinese: 黄金县; traditional Chinese: 黃金縣).
Upon the establishment of the Tang dynasty in 758CE, it became the seat of Yang Prefecture (Chinese: 洋州).
In 1370, under the Ming dynasty, the area was re-organized as Yang County (simplified Chinese: 洋县; traditional Chinese: 洋縣).
In 1913, under Republican China, the area was placed under Hangzhong Circuit (simplified Chinese: 汉中道; traditional Chinese: 漢中道). In 1928, Hanzhong Circuit was abolished and the area was governed directly by Shaanxi Province officials.
Beginning in August 1931, groups loyal to the Chinese Communist Party began organizing in the area. On December 4, 1949, these groups coordinated with the People's Liberation Army to take control of the area. On December 14, the Yang County People's Government was established to formally govern the area. Between the county's re-establishment in December 1949 and September 1961, it was re-organized eight times. Since then, Yang County has not been re-organized, and has remained under the jurisdiction of Hanzhong.
A number of major historical figures in Chinese history, including Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Su Shi, and Wen Tong, have visited present-day Yang County.
