Territory
While initially only a minor barony before the serf rebellion in the Year of God 903, Pyangzhow was able to subsequently elevate Spring Flower to an earldom, then a duchy, and finally a grand duchy by professing loyalty to Emperor Zhyou-Zhwo. In reality, Pyangzhow was one of the many warlords that took advantage of the post rebellion chaos in North Harchong to establish a personal fiefdom in Central Harchong. Spring Flower began its expansion by murdering two of his neighboring barons and annexing their estates before seizing a free town.

In October of the Year of God 907, the Grand Duchy stretched across almost a hundred thousand square miles, stretching as far south as Kaisun and further than two hundred miles east of Fangkau. 

Within the borders of Spring Flower was the Barony of Qwaidu, which he granted to his military commander Zhailau Laurahn.
