- Abstract:
- In history, a large population migrated to Fujian from the northern part of China. The immigration and exploitation activities there strongly promoted Fujian’s development in every historical period, which had a profound impact on its social, economic and cultural growth. Through exploring the migration and exploitation process in this region, we found that it underwent four stages: the initial one was before the Tang Dynasty; the second was the Tang and Wudai dynasties when comprehensive and large-scale development took place; the third was the Song and Yuan dynasties when Fujia became one of the developed regions of the country; and the last was the Ming and Qing dynasties. The immigration and exploitation in Fujian was also distinctive in the following aspects: first it followed a ring-like development track, i.e. from the inland to the coastal area and then back to the inland; and secondly it took a route from along the valley area to the plain and the slopes and then to the hilly lands. In addition, the immigration and exploitation in this area presented a point-axis development mode.
