Luòjiǎo

Luojiao lay in the mountainous borderland between Yongning and Zhenxiong, where valleys and ridges divided the territories of hereditary chiefs. Ming sources mention Luojiaoli among the districts affected by the reorganisation of Zhenxiong. Several new chieftaincies were established in this country, with relatives of the ruling Long family placed in office, while appointed officials sought to exercise authority over the wider prefecture.
