Features: With the gradual establishment and improvement of the socialist market economy system, governments at all levels are further transforming their functions. In particular, economic management is shifting from micro-management to macro-management. The operation of regional economies is gradually transitioning from a vertical planned economy to a horizontal market economy. This requires the structural system of administrative divisions to transform from a multi-tiered, narrow scope to a fewer tiers, broader scope. By merging townships, exploring models for reforming the grassroots administrative division system, it has attempted to address current issues such as excessive levels of administrative divisions and the small scale of some counties and districts. It has innovatively reformed the city-governed-county system, experimented with the province-governed-county system, and merged excessively small counties and districts, accumulating valuable experience and creating necessary conditions, which holds great significance and role.
