Emperor Orders Formal Incorporation of Gamalan

The formal incorporation of Gamalan was initiated through an imperial decree, which marked a pivotal administrative change in the region. This decree led to the appointment of a Gamalan sub-prefect, establishing a structured governance system aimed at integrating Gamalan into the broader administrative framework. The decision to incorporate Gamalan was influenced by its geographical and economic potential, as the area was characterized by fertile lands and strategic location. This move was part of a larger trend of administrative reforms aimed at enhancing control and resource management in various regions. Unlike Gamalan, the upstream areas of the Zhuoshui River and Wu River, known as Shuishalian, remained designated as forbidden zones, highlighting the selective approach taken by the authorities in managing different territories. The incorporation of Gamalan not only facilitated better governance but also aimed to promote agricultural development and resource utilization in the region, which was essential for the overall economic growth of the empire.
