河东,作为一个地理概念,其疆域在战国之前较为模糊,泛指黄河以东地区。秦时始置河东郡,其疆域约相当于今霍山以南,沁水以西的地区。之后,在不同的时期变化较大。今天所言之河东,即指运城市所辖之十三县市。
As a geographical concept,Hedong's boundary was obscure before the Period of Warring States,refering to an area to the east of the Yellow River.Hedong County was set in the Qin Dynasty,and its territory covered an area to the south of Mount Holyoke,and to the west of the Qinhe River.Later,its territory has changed greatly at different times.Today the word Hedong,refers to the thirteen counties under the jurisdiction of the municipality of Yuncheng.
