They are all villages. Why are some villages called "camps" and others called "villages"?

Many village names are composed of two or three words, only one word is used to name them, and not many people have more than four words. The names of ordinary villages are generally called Zhuang, Cun, Ji, Dian and Qiao. In the naming of Zhuang nationality, most people with large family population take surname as the name of Zhuang nationality.

Most villages are large families, such as Dongzhangzhuang, Nanzhangzhuang, Xilizhuang, Beilizhuang, Dawangzhuang and Xiaowangzhuang. Most of these village names contain only one surname, and a few contain two surnames. Name a village after a person. As village names, some people are founders or pioneers in the village, and some are celebrities in the village, taking people's names as village names. Such as Chenhe Village and Wang Ping Village.

Military aspects include tun, camp, fort (shop), pier, platform, village and station. Ancient military facilities, communication contact points and garrisons were preserved because of geographical names. Such as Fengguantun and Baiguantun in Fengguantun Town. Villages related to religious buildings include temples, temples, temples, churches and pavilions. Such as Meng Temple, Liu Temple, Da Temple and Wenchang Pavilion.

Some villages have changed their names from villages to markets, such as Haoji, Zhou Ji, Ji Tao and Lishi.

In front of the village name is the size or the orientation of east, west, north, south and front, which is mostly related to the village name. When building a village with the same surname, the village name is named after the surname, which often forms the same surname. In order to distinguish them, the size of population and villages should be marked as size, such as Zhangzhuang village, Xiaozhangzhuang, Dalizhuang and Xiaolizhuang, or as the location of villages, such as Nanlizhuang and Beilizhuang.

In the north, there are many villages called Tunheying, such as Wangtun, Litun and Zhang Jiaying. Tunheying is related to ancient farming. Reclaiming farmland, also known as reclaiming farmland, is an agricultural production mode in which ancient countries forced farmers or soldiers to reclaim state-owned land and collect certain land rent. Reclamation appeared very early. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reclaimed land in the Yellow River, Zhangye and Jiuquan, with a population of 600,000. At that time, reclamation was mainly to solve the problem of food and supply for the army. Because the transportation capacity was underdeveloped at that time, reclamation could solve the grain and grass problem of the nearby border guards.

In the south, according to the geographical size and population, they are called townships, villages, villages, villages, teams and so on. Many villages basically share the same surname and clan. For example, our village is called Dongxin Village. There are two surnames in the village, and we have the same ancestral grave. During the Qingming Festival, the whole village went to pay homage to the same ancestral grave, and the scene was spectacular.
