<< review queue entry 69049 - submitted by 'haton' >> actually seems to be rather in the Center/South than in the North of China https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Dynasties_and_Ten_Kingdoms_period ----------------------------------- Editor: "in the Center/South"? Certainly not in the south. Are you confusing the Five_Kingdoms with the combined Five_Dynasties_and_Ten_Kingdoms? "The period following the collapse of the Tang comprised the Five Dynasties in the north and the Ten Kingdoms in the south." China: Its History and Culture, by Morton and Lewis Britannica: "Five Dynasties, in Chinese history, period of time between the fall of the Tang dynasty (AD 907) and the founding of the Song dynasty (960), when five would-be dynasties followed one another in quick succession in North China. The era is also known as the period of the Ten Kingdoms (Shiguo) because 10 regimes dominated separate regions of South China during the same period." Wikipedia: "Five states quickly succeeded one another in the Central Plain* [i.e. the Five Dynasties] and more than a dozen concurrent states were established elsewhere, mainly in South China [i.e. the "ten" kingdoms]." * The Central Plain lies *north* of the Qinling-Huaihe Line, which is used to divide the north of China from the south. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_and_southern_China |
