Shenyang is a famous historical and cultural city. It is named because it is located in the north of ancient Shenshui (now Hunhe River). Shenyang is one of the birthplaces of the Chinese nation, which gave birth to the early culture of the Liaohe River Basin. According to the textual research of Xinle site, as early as the Neolithic Age more than 7200 years ago, human beings flourished here. Since the establishment of Houcheng around 300 BC, Shenyang has a history of more than 2,300 years. Shenyang is known as "once the birthplace, two generations of emperors are the capital". 1625, the capital of Houjin, established by the Qing emperor Nurhachi, moved here and was renamed Shengjing. 1636, Huang taiji changed his country name to "Qing" and established the Qing Dynasty. 1644, after the Qing army entered Beijing as its capital, Shengjing was its capital. Shenyang Imperial Palace is the seat of the Imperial Palace in the early Qing Dynasty, and it is one of the two most complete palace buildings in China.
Shenyang is well-developed in education, science and technology and industry. After Japan occupied Northeast China, it actively transported Japanese industrial equipment to Shenyang, and regarded Northeast China and Shenyang as Japan's own construction. During the 14 years when Japan occupied Northeast China, the total output of Northeast China surpassed that of Japan. 1945 Japan was defeated, and there were 4570 enterprises in Shenyang. Japan invaded China and Southeast Asia by relying on the powerful industries in Shenyang and Northeast China, and its strong industrial and scientific and technological foundation made the former Soviet Union terrified at that time. At that time, Toyota Aircraft Factory was able to produce 70 aircraft and 65,438+000,000 engines every month. Therefore, in less than a year after the Soviet Red Army entered the Northeast, all the huge industries established by the Japanese in the Northeast were shipped back to the Soviet Union. After the liberation of Northeast China, the country actively resumed its construction. During the "First Five-Year Plan" and "Second Five-Year Plan" period, Shenyang's industry developed rapidly relying on old skilled workers and became the cradle of new China construction.
