Dongwu (Zhu Changqing)
Dongwu (simplified Chinese: 东武; traditional Chinese: 東武; pinyin: Dōngwǔ; lit. 'east valiant'; February – November 1648) was the era name (nianhao) of Zhu Changqing, Prince of Huai of the Southern Ming. It lasted for one year.[1]
This era name is not recorded in historical texts such as the History of Ming, but can be found in Volume 7 of Xu Ming Jishi Benmo (續明紀事本末) and in Li Zhaoluo's Ji yuan bian (紀元編) with annotations from an anonymous author's Jing qi bie bian (鯨琦別編).[2][3]
