History

As a division of Yanling County, historically Zhongcun was part of the 3rd county-controlled district (第三区) in 1949, the 6th county controlled district (第六区) in 1952. The name of Zhongcun Township appeared in 1956. In 1958, Zhongcun Township was reorganized as a commune named Xingfu (幸福公社) and then renamed to Zhongcun Commune (中村公社), Longzha Yao Ethnic Township was merged to Zhongcun and reorganized as a production brigade of Longzha (龙渣大队). Zhongcun was reorganized as a township in 1984. Dividing four villages in southern Zhongcun Township, Longzha Yao Ethnic Township was re-established in February 1985.[2] On November 20, 2015, merging Zhongcun Township, Longzha Yao Ethnic Township and Pingle Township, the new Zhongcun Yao Ethnic Township was created.[1]

It is divided into 10 villages: Zhong Village, Longtan Village, Shendu Village, Luofujiang Village, Daoren Village, Lianxi Village, Longping Village, Xintian Village, Meigang Village, and Jiutan Village.

gollark: The current implementation has... several problems:- it keeps cached data even if osmarks.tk is updated- it intercepts requests to dynamic stuff like IncDec and Isso, which is normally fine but makes it break oddly in offline mode- it seems to re-request everything all the time.
gollark: I should probably fix the service worker it uses for offline mode, though.
gollark: Died?
gollark: Okay, infipage is back up, links to IncDec are coming soon.
gollark: I wonder if the offline caching thing works at all.
