Extended data:
At the beginning of 1929, the "city" area of Chongqing was 2.4 square kilometers. After more than 80 years of development, the built-up area of Chongqing has expanded by more than 200 times. By the end of 2009, the built-up area of Chongqing's main urban area reached 48 1 km2.
Since 1997, due to the special structure of Chongqing, an urban area similar to the concept of economic and cultural transportation of municipalities directly under the central government has been formed, which is the main urban area of Chongqing.
This concept is often associated with the "old Chongqing area" (that is, Chongqing, Sichuan Province, commonly known as nine districts and twelve counties). The adjusted administrative scope covers Changshou District, Qijiang District, Yongchuan District, Bishan District, Dazu District, jiangjin district, Hechuan District, Tongliang District, Rongchang District and Tongnan District, with an area of 23 165438+.
Since 1939, Chongqing became a municipality directly under the central government for the first time, the main city of Chongqing was the original administrative region of Chongqing during the Republic of China, and it remained until after liberation.
During the period of 1950- 1980, Chongqing was first reduced from a municipality directly under the central government to a city under separate state planning and then to a prefecture-level city, and its administrative area was extended to the ninth district of Chongqing, plus the sum of Changshou District, Qijiang District and Shuangqiao District (note: Shuangqiao District 20 1 1 merged into Dazu District).
After the 1980s, Chongqing resumed its plan to be a city with separate state planning, and Jiangjin Administrative Office of Sichuan Province and eight counties of Yongchuan (Jiangjin County, Bishan County, Yongchuan County, Hechuan County, Tongnan County, Tongliang County, Rongchang County and Dazu County) were merged into Chongqing one after another, becoming a part of Chongqing, Sichuan Province.
The status of these counties in Chongqing is similar to that of Qingpu, Chongming and Jiading in Shanghai. Baodi and Jinghai in Tianjin or Miyun and Yanqing in Beijing. For the provincial capital, these suburban counties in Chongqing are similar to Huangpi in Wuhan, Lin 'an and Jiande in Hangzhou, Conghua and Zengcheng in Guangzhou. 、
