Kyushu, also known as Handi, Middle-earth, Shenzhou and Twelve States, first appeared in the pre-Qin classic Shangshu Gong Yu, which is the concept of ethnic regions of China Han ancestors since ancient times.
Since the Warring States Period, Kyushu has become synonymous with ancient China, and since the Jin Dynasty at the latest, it has become synonymous with the Han nationality, also known as Kyushu of the Han nationality. Since ancient times, the ancestors of the Han nationality have divided the birthplace of the Han nationality into nine regions, the so-called Kyushu.
