Dounan Township (Template:Zh) is an urban township in Yunlin County, Taiwan.
History
Dounan was formerly known as Ta-lí-bū (Template:Zh), which was derived from Dalivoe, a local settlement of the indigenous Lloa people.[1] The development of Ta-lí-bū had started since the Ming Dynasty, when Koxinga came to Taiwan. It is the first place explored by the Han Chinese in the Yunlin area. During the Japanese rule period, Ta-lí-bū (transliterated to Japanese as Tarimu then) was rebuilt as an administrative division under the governance of Kobi and renamed to Tonan in 1920. In 1946, it became an independent township.
