Xinyi (Chinese:新沂;pinyin:Xīnyí;Wade–Giles:Hsin-i;lit. 'New Yi [River]') is acounty-level city under the administration ofXuzhou,Jiangsu province, China. It borders theprefecture-level cities ofLinyi (Shandong) to the north,Lianyungang to the northeast, andSuqian to the east and south.
The archaeological site of Huating, located in the southwestern part, was inhabited as long as 5,000 years ago. During theZhou dynasty, its southern territory was dominated by a minor state: Zhongwu, which was variously annexed toWu,Yue andChu.[1] Two counties designated Siwu and Jianlin were established in its southern part and northern part in the West Han, both counties were dissolved during the Southern and Northern dynasties, and the major region was administrated bySuqian.[2][3] The borders among then Suqian,Shuyang,Donghai along withPizhou were merged and became a separated county in 1949. It named after the seat, Xin'an (新安) town, but was renamed Xinyi, a river flowing through its area, in 1952, because ofits namesake in Henan.[4][5] The county was converted to a county-level city in 1990.
At present, Xinyi City has 16 towns.[6]
