Mangshi
Etymology
The name "Mangshi" first appeared in 1443, when the Tai Nuea tusi Mangshi Yuyi Zhangguansi (芒市御夷长官司) was established. In the history, an ethnicity named Mangshi (茫施) lived in this area. The name of "芒市" evolved from "茫施" (the pinyin are same). Luxi (潞西) is the former name of Mangshi, meaning "west of Lu [Salween] River".
In Tai Nuea language, the city name is Muang Khon (ᥛᥫᥒᥰ ᥑᥩᥢᥴ), written in Chinese is "勐焕", meaning "city of dawn".
In 2008, 4,751 people participated in a public opinion survey in favour of restoring the historical name (Mangshi), with 96.96% supporting a name change to Mangshi. In 2010, the name was formally changed. "Mangshi" is the proper name of the city, however, the character "市" (shì) itself means "city". The full name in Chinese language is "芒市" (Mangshi), the official English translation in the Yearbook of Dehong is "Mangshi City".
History
Historically, Mangshi was divided among three tusi territories. Mangshi Lu (茫施路), established by Yuan dynasty in 1276, was the first time the region was integrated into the administrative system of a Chinese dynasty. Mangshi Lu was part of Jinchi Xuanfusi (金齿等处宣抚司), Yunnan Province. In 1277, the area was affected by the first Mongol invasion of Burma. Ming dynasty repealed Mangshi Lu and set Mangshi Fu (茫施府) in 1382. Because Mangshi chief Dao Fangge (刀放革) helped the Ming dynasty army in the Luchuan–Pingmian campaigns, Ming dynasty made him the Mangshi Tusi (native chieftain), and founded the agency Mangshi Yuyi Zhangguansi (芒市御夷长官司) in 1443. In 1584, Ming dynasty created another tusi, Zhefang Fuxuanfusi (遮放副宣抚司) in Zhefang area, formerly part of Longchuan Xuanfusi (陇川宣抚司). In 1640, Mangshi Yuyi Zhangguansi upgraded to Mangshi Anfusi (芒市安抚司). In 1899, Qing dynasty set the 3rd tusi, Mengban Tuqianzong (勐板土千总) in modern Mangshi Area.
In Republic of China period, the Yunnan government appointed two "suppression commissars" (彈壓委員) to Mangban (芒板) and Zhemao (遮卯) within the Mangshi area in 1913. Mangban suppression commissar administered Mangshi Anfusi and Mengban Tuqianzong territories, and Zhemao suppression commissar administered Zhefang Xuanfusi and Mengmao Anfusi (勐卯安撫司, in Ruili) territories. The two suppression commissars were replaced by an administrative commissar (行政委員) in 1915, and a district named Mangzheban Administrative District (芒遮板行政區) was established. At the same time, Mengmao Anfusi was separated from the district, thus forming the boundaries of modern Mangshi. As a transition before formally establishing a county, Yunnan government set a Shezhiju (設治局, similar to a governing council) in Mangshi area named Mangzheban Shezhiju (芒遮板設治局) replacing Mangzheban District in 1929. The Administrative Bureau is a quasi-county level administrative division. Mengga is the seat of the bureau. It changed the name to Luxi Shezhiju (潞西設治局) in 1934. Imperial Japanese Army occupied Luxi at 4 May 1942 and retreated at 11 December 1944 when Counterattack of Western Yunnan started. In 1949, Luxi Administrative Bureau finally became Luxi County (潞西县), with the seat of county government at the town of Mangshi, and the first county magistrate was the acting Tusi Fang Kesheng (方克胜). The Tusi system and the central bureaucracy still coexisted.
Fang Kesheng refused to join People's Republic of China, preferring to remain neutral. Eventually the People's Liberation Army advanced into Luxi in April 1950, and Fang Kesheng fled to Taiwan. His brother Fang Keguang succeeded be the acting tusi, and cooperated with the Chinese Communist Party. The three tusi were killed during the land reform movement in 1955. Luxi County became Luxi City (county-level city) in 1996, and changed the name to Mangshi City in 2010.
