History

Early history

Before the arrival of Han Chinese to Nantou, the Atayal, Bunun and Tsou tribes were distributed throughout the northern and central Nantou. These groups pioneered the early development of mountain regions in Nantou.[3]

Kingdom of Tungning

In 1677, Lin Yi ({{zh|c=林圯}}), a general under the command of Koxinga, led soldiers to establish residence in {{Interlanguage link multi|Shalianbao|zh|3=沙連堡}} (modern-day Zhushan). The Han Chinese began to enter Nantou via two main routes, the Zhuoshui River and Maoluo River.[3]

Japanese rule

In 1901, during Japanese rule, {{nihongo||南投廳|Nanto Chō|lead=yes}} was one of twenty local administrative offices established. In 1909, part of {{nihongo4||斗六廳|Toroku Chō}} was merged into Nanto Cho. A major reorganization occurred in 1920, in which the area was administered under Taichū Prefecture together with modern-day Changhua County and Taichung City.

Post-war

After the handover of Taiwan from Japan to the Republic of China on 25 October 1945, the present day area of Nantou County was administered under Taichung County of Taiwan Province.

On 1 July 1957, the Zhongxing New Village in Nantou Township was designed to be the capital of Taiwan Province from the former Taipei City. In 1981, the county seat was upgraded from Nantou Township to Nantou City.
