Nanjing (南京), previously known as Jinling (金陵),[1][2] is the capital of the province of Jiangsu in East China. Nanjing enjoys a prominent place in Chinese history, having been the capital of various Chinese dynasties and governments spanning from the early 3rd century until 1949.[1] In 1519, during the Ming dynasty, Prince of Ning Zhu Chenhao sparked a rebellion against the Zhengde Emperor, disputing the legitimacy of his rule and marching towards the capital of Nanjing. His forces were defeated after only 42 days[3] owing to his capture by Wang Yangming, who led the government army.[4]
