河南成为全国政治中心时间考实

摘要

Henan,located in central China,has a long history with profound culture,ranking very high in Chi-nese civilization. The time span of Henan as the national political centre has aroused much concern,and statements differ. Taking capital as a mark of political centre,this paper argues that Henan had been the political centre for nearly 2 000 years,currently ranking top among 34 provinces and directly-controlled municipalities. Such is the most symbolic focus of attention in Henan's history and culture,and it is considered a special contribution to Chinese history and culture.%河南地处我国中部，历史文化悠久厚重，具有重要地位。河南成为全国政治中心时间为世人所关注。诸说不一。以王朝都城为政治中心作标志，历代王朝形成的政治中心分为全国政治中心、地方区域中心。累计计算历代王朝在河南建都时间，可知河南成为政治中心的时间近2000年，位居全国34个省区之首。这是河南历史文化最具标志性的亮点，是对中国历史文化的特殊贡献。
