Jiangnan is a geographic area in China referring to lands immediately to the south of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, including the southern part of its delta. The region encompasses the city of Shanghai, the southern part of Jiangsu Province, the southeastern part of Anhui Province, the northern part of Jiangxi Province and the northern part of Zhejiang Province. The most important cities in the area include Anqing, Changzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Ningbo, Shaoxing, Suzhou, Wuxi, Wenzhou, Yangzhou and Zhenjiang. Jiangnan has long been regarded as one of the most prosperous regions in China due to its wealth in trade and very high cultural development. Innovations in seafaring, city-building, and philosophy from this region have impacted the entire nation over several millennia. Most people of the region speak Wu Chinese dialects as their native languages, and it has been an important place for every Dynasty in Chinese history, either as a seat of power, a place of rest and relaxation, or a strategic area during wartime and for trade.
