Why did the capital of Anhui move from Anqing, near the Yangtze River, to Hefei?

The history of Anhui province is not long, and Hefei, as the capital city of Anhui province, is only about 60 years. Abandoning Anqing city with a longer history and choosing Hefei is also caused by the current situation of historical development.

First, Anqing was captured in the war. Because Anqing is located on the edge of the Yangtze River, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, which broke out in the Opium War, directly captured Anqing. Moreover, in the later period of domestic unrest, Anqing faced a very bad situation and there was no room for struggle. Anqing's special geographical position is on the edge of the Yangtze River, and the direct fall of Anqing will lead to the fall of the Yangtze River estuary. Secondly, during War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the civil war, the domestic situation was still very turbulent and the crisis had not been lifted. At this time, if Anqing is restored as the capital of Anhui, the Yangtze River will be in danger of falling again. In this case, the problem that the government must consider is to re-select the capital city of Anhui Province.

Second, Hefei is located in the middle of Anhui Province. On the map of Anhui Province, Hefei is located in the middle of Anhui Province, with two major water systems: the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River. On the one hand, such a central position has certain advantages in developing the economy, extending in all directions. On the other hand, due to the huge differences in cultural environment and living habits between southern Anhui and northern Anhui, making Hefei the capital city can solve the differences between southern Anhui and northern Anhui to some extent. Moreover, the location of Hefei has played a very good role in connecting the preceding with the following. In the historical development stage, there are economic differences between southern Anhui and northern Anhui, which developed earlier in Anhui Province. As a provincial capital city, Hefei can enhance the development status of some regional economies.

Therefore, after weighing, Hefei can become the capital city of Anhui Province because of its geographical advantages. Today, the rise of Hefei has become what people say? Ba Du? .
