Luódiàn

Luodian lies in the mountains north of the Hongshui River, on the borderlands of Guizhou and Guangxi. Under the Ming, this country came under the Luobo Pass inspection office of Xilong in Guangxi. The Qing established a subordinate official at Luohu in 1727, and in 1749 transferred the jurisdiction to Dingfan in Guizhou. These changes brought the mountainous district into a new provincial administration.
