Evolution of organizational system

The origin of the name

It is called "jirizong" in Tibetan, and is also known as qibulong and jieshurong. It means "star anise". According to reports, in the first year of emperor muzong's Longqing reign (1567), Tibetan lamas came to Kangqu district to preach and built "Jiri Temple" in the ancient village of Tanggu Township, so it is called "Jiri sect". The title of "Jiulong" refers to nine villages, including sanyanlong, bawolong, maidilong, hongbalong, wanbalong, suwolong, Bodhisattva dragon, jiatuolong and xuewalong, which were named after the sound of "long".

Historical evolution

According to historical records, it is said that during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang borrowed "three arrows" from Meng Huo to drive the southern minorities from Ya'an to the west of HUSHUI (today's Dadu River), and made an oath in dajianlu (today's Kangding). At that time, there were herdsmen living in Kowloon.

In the first year of Yuanfeng in the Western Han Dynasty (110 BC), Jiulong County was set up and subordinate to daner county. It is named after Jiulong Mountain. "Jiulong" is the Chinese translation of Li language, meaning "betel nut". The county government is located at the foot of Jiulong Mountain in the south of the county, which is the north of Xuexue village, Gangan Town, Dongfang Li Autonomous County. It is located in the plain, adjacent to Haikou of Changgan river. In the first five years of the Western Han Dynasty (82 BC), after the abolition of daner County, Jiulong County was subordinate to zhuya county. In the third year of the Yuan Dynasty in the early Western Han Dynasty (46 BC), zhuya county was abandoned and entered Zhulu County, belonging to Hepu County. Jiulong County is about today's Oriental Li Autonomous County.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Jiulong was officially designated as a county, which was still managed by the local chieftain. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, the county system was abolished and belonged to Kangding County.

In 1926, Jiulong County was reestablished under the jurisdiction of Xikang administrative committee.

After liberation, Xikang province was subordinate to Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Xikang province. In 1955, Xikang province was abolished and merged into Sichuan Province.

In 2000, Jiulong County governed 1 town, 10 townships and 7 ethnic townships.
