History of the Kuo surname
Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period
In terms of the origin of the Kuo surname, there are two main origins of the surname Kuo: the ancient Kuo state during the Xia and Shang dynasties, and the "Guo" state, which was fiefdom of King Wen of Zhou. After they were destroyed during the Spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, their people began the first great migration in history.
The ancient Guo state, located in Liaocheng, Bo, Shandong, was destroyed by Qi during the Warring States period, and its descendants drifted around after the destruction of the state, and finally migrated to the vast area bordering Shandong and Hebei today. Zhongshan State was one of the prefectures where they lived, and there were also Guo clansmen in Changshan County and Guangping County nearby. These Guo clansmen, through continuous reproduction and development, gradually became more and more numerous and formed the famous clan of Zhongshan. In the Spring and Autumn Annals, it is written: "In Qi, there are Guo most and Guo Rong", "In Lu, there is Guo Chong", "In Yan, there is Guo Kui".
The Guo clan, which originated in the State of Guo in the Zhou Dynasty, is one of the most numerous, powerful, widely distributed, and far-reaching of the Guo family name, and it can be said that the current 90 curse of the Guo family name originates from this one, but the reproduction and dissemination of this Guo clan is not the same.
After the successive demise of the State of Guo, the descendants of the Guo clan as the people of the deceased country, or forced forced to migrate, or fled to a foreign country to gather and live in the clan, but also a part of the original place.
The western Guo clan moved east to Shangyang with King Ping, and the small Guo clan that stayed in place was destroyed by Qin in the 11th year of Duke Wu of Qin, and the clan was forced to move to remote areas in the northwest, where they settled down, leading to the formation of the Xiping Guo and Dunhuang Guo clans, which became famous all over the world in the Wei, Jin, and Northern and Southern Dynasties.
South and North Guo was Jin Xian Gong after the destruction, their people Pisan drift, were forced to move to the State of Jin, but also fled to the nearby countries, moved to the State of Jin, the Guo people were left in most of the present Shanxi Jinnan, a part of the settlement in the territory of present-day Fenyang County, Shanxi, Fenyang County, Guo City, Guo City that is, because of the people of Guo in this name, they are the earliest ancestor of the Guo family in Taiyuan.
The East Guo, which was destroyed by Zheng during the reign of King Ping of the Zhou Dynasty, was also forced to flee, and most of them were dispersed in the central part of present-day Henan Province, thus becoming the earliest ancestors of the Yingchuan Guo Clan. There were also those who fled to present-day Shaanxi and Shanxi. The Thin Mountain Guo Clan was one of those forced to move to Thin Mountain during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. The location is south of Yanmen Pass, that is, Qin Shi Huang built the Inner Great Wall of Thin Mountain. The word "崞", by the earliest moved into the Guo ancestor of his own creation, because of the loss of fiefs, was forced to move to a mountain, so the right side of the word Guo to go to the Euphrasia, the left side of the mountain, the name of its land for "崞山". The name of the hall is "Thin Mountain Hall".
In summary, the Guo surname, which originated from the Zhou Dynasty Guo state, had its migration coincide with the rise and fall of the Guo state. Whether it was the Western Guo or the Eastern Guo, as well as the Northern Guo and the Southern Guo, the demise of each Guo state led to a great exodus and a great migration of the Guo clan. In the process of migration, the West Guo became the ancestor of the Xiping Guo Clan and the Dunhuang Guo Clan during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, while the East, North and South Guo became the ancestor of the Taiyuan Guo Clan, the Hedong Guo Clan and the Yingchuan Guo Clan.
Qin and Han Dynasties
Qin and Han Dynasties, with the social stability and economic: development, living in the Central Plains for generations of the Guo clan finally out of the historical shadow of the country's collapse, the population continues to multiply, the clan gradually grow. They have tasted the taste of exile and migration, more cherish the stability of the settled life. In their various settlements, they either cultivated farmland, or joined the military, or devoted themselves to politics, or were poorly educated. In all aspects of social life, they played their role and showed their talents, leaving a splendid picture to history. They inherited the good character of their ancestors, sincere to serve the king, trust to deal with friends, in the various settlements to obtain high prestige.
The pre-Qin and Han Dynasties, the Guo family to live in Taiyuan Yangqu Guo Wu family has the greatest influence. After continuous reproduction, the Taiyuan Guo family became the main source of the later Guo family name reproduction and migration, so the Guo family to "Taiyuan" county for the largest. By the end of the Han Dynasty, the Guo Clan had become a prominent clan in the lower Wei River area. In the Han Dynasty, there was Guo Ting, whose descendants migrated from Taiyuan to Fengyi. At the end of the Later Han Dynasty, Guo Quan, a great farmer, lived in Yangyu, and his descendants moved to (Ying - Wo + water) Chuan (present-day Xuchang, Henan Province). And then there is the later Han Guo Tai, live in jiexiu (now belongs to Shanxi), his grandson lives in Weizhou Changle, visible Changle Guo Wu also from Taiyuan.

Especially in the central plains of the main settlement of the people of the Kuo surname is the war for many years, the people do not have a lot of life. The south is relatively stable, a large number of people in the Central Plains, forced to leave their homeland, avoiding chaos Jiangnan. Guo's second great migration is in the Jin Yongjia after the rebellion, the Western Jin dynasty fell, the Eastern Jin dynasty capital Jiankang (now Nanjing, Jiangsu Province), with the Jin dynasty south of the ferry hundreds of families. These people, including the Guo family members. For example, Guo Pu, a famous writer in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was originally from Wenxi, Shanxi Province, and at the time of Emperor Huiji and Emperor Huai, his hometown was harassed by the Xiongnu, and he united dozens of relatives and friends to avoid the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River.

In this discussion, the Guo family also has a big famous family, that is, the Fenyang Guo family, whose founder is Guo Ziyi from Huayin. Guo Ziyi was awarded the title of King of Fenyang for his success in pacifying the "An Shi Rebellion", and his descendants took 'Fenyang' as the name of the clan.
