Southeast County, in the Central Plains, has always been a very special area, with the most mountainous terrain in the Central Plains yet also possessing very fertile land, making it a major grain-producing region. However, the rugged mountain roads lead to difficulties in transportation.
Since ancient times, because its internal grain production was abundant enough and it was easy to defend but hard to attack, it easily became an ideal place for self-rule, and during times of war, Southeast County was typically the last territory the Imperial Court would bring under control.
