History
The area was known as Po under the Chu state during the Warring States period. Under the Qin, the area was organized as Poyang County (番陽縣) and placed under the administration of Jiujiang. Po was entrusted to the Yue leader Wu Rui. During the collapse of Qin, he allied first with Xiang Yu and then with Liu Bei, becoming successively the king of Hengshan and then Changsha. Under the Han, the area was known as Poyang and placed under the administration of Yuzhang. It kept the same name but changed its first character to the present one under the Western Han.[1]
During Eastern Han, the Yangtze River flowed farther north and Poyang constituted a wide and fertile lowland. Around AD 400, the Yangtze changed its course to the south and flooded the district which has ever since comprised Poyang Lake. Many of its people fled as refugees into neighboring districts.
In 1957, the name of the county was changed to Boyang County, but in December 2003 the original name was restored.[2] On May 27, 2014, Poyang County was designated as directly-controlled county by the provincial government as a part of a pilot program in Jiangxi Province.
Administrative divisions
Poyang County administers 14 towns and 20 rural townships. The county seat is the town of Poyang.[citation needed] Around 1998 the county had approximately 1 million people.[3]
- The town of Poyang had around 1998.[3]
- The Yinhaobu Township had about 20,000 people around 1998. It includes the Guantian Village Committee.[4]
- The Guantian Village Committee consists of the villages of Cao, Gao, and Xu.[3]
- In 1997 Gao Village had 351 residents, including people who left the village as migrant workers.[4] Gao Village has a local school that was established in 1969, during the Cultural Revolution. Mobo C. F. Gao, author of the book Gao Village said that around 1995 almost all of the village's children have had two years of education because of the existence of the village school. Gao also said that the school would not have been established if it had not been for the Cultural Revolution. During the Cultural Revolution almost all of the children, including the girls, had an elementary school education spanning three years due to the convenience of having a local school and low costs.[5] Before 1949 no intra-village marriages occurred in Gao Village. Before the Cultural Revolution there was one intra-village marriage, which also was zhaozhui marriage; a zhaozhui marriage, in which the groom lives with the bride's family, was considered to have a stigma during the pre-Cultural Revolution time and still had some stigma in 1995 since area people believed that only extremely pool, helpless, hopeless, and parentless people entered zhaozhui marriages. Since the Cultural Revolution eight intra-village marriages occurred in Gao Village.[6]
