Shang Commandery

Shang Commandery (上郡; Mandarin: Shàngjùn lit. 'Upper Commandery') was a commandery of the Qin dynasty of China, corresponding to the present-day eastern part of province. As with other commanderies (郡; jùn), Shang Commandery originated as a military district the Qin established as a new form of local government to dismantle the old city-states.Lewis, Mark Edward. (2007). "A State Organized for War". In The Early Empires: Qin and Han. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, pp. 30–50. During the reign of Qin Shi Huang, the region was roughly bisected by the newly constructed Great Wall into Northern Shangjun and Southern Shangjun.Assassin's Creed: Jade
