Nándān

Nandan was a Zhuang native chieftaincy in the mountains of northern Guangxi, centred on the Nandan valley. The Mo family held the hereditary office after its ancestor Mo Hongyan submitted to the Song; under the Yuan, Nandan was grouped with Qingyuan as an appeasement commission.

In 1395 the Ming established a military guard at Nandan alongside the native administration. Mo chiefs continued to govern their Zhuang subjects through the Ming and Qing periods, making the chieftaincy one of the longest-lived in the Guangxi uplands.
