Toponymy

Xunke County got its name from a portmanteau of two previously-existing counties in the area: Xunhe County (Template:Lang-zh) and Qike County (Template:Lang-zh). Xunhe County derived its name from the nearby Template:Interlanguage link, which means "milk river" in Manchu.[1] Qike derived its name from a nearby mountain called Qikele (Template:Lang-zh).[1] The pronunciation of Qikele shifted to Qikete (Template:Lang-zh) over time, and would commonly be shorted to Qike.[1]

History

There have been human activities in Xunke County as early as the late Neolithic period.[2]

During the time of the Jin dynasty, the area of present-day Xunke County was inhabited by the Jurchen people.[2]

A number of refugees from the Sixty-Four Villages East of the River fleeing the 1900 Amur anti-Chinese pogroms resettled in present-day Xunke County.[2]

After the 1911 Revolution, in 1913, the Template:Interlanguage link, which governed the area, was restructured as Aihui County.[2] Qikete, corresponding to present-day Xunke County, was reclassified as the Fourth District of Aihui County.[2] In 1915, Qikete was reclassified from a Template:Interlanguage link to a Template:Interlanguage link.[2] In 1929, Qikete County Assistant was renamed and reorganized as Qike County.[2]

In 1933, Imperial Japan invaded and occupied the area, and established their own county governments in the area.[2] In 1943, Japan merged the two counties it established in the area, Xunhe County and Qike County, into Xunke County.[2]

In June 1946, the Template:Interlanguage link established county offices.[2] By 1947, the People's Liberation Army established full control of the area.[2]
