起源與歷史
The Wang surname has multiple origins. Some descendants of ancient kings adopted Wang as their surname. Others came from the Ji (姬) royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, or from the Gui (妫) family of the Chen State.
姓氏演變
The Wang surname originated during the Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BCE) from descendants of royal families who adopted 'Wang' (King) as their surname. During the Wei-Jin period (220–420 CE), the Langya Wang clan rose to prominence as one of China's most powerful aristocratic families. The Tang Dynasty (618–907) saw the Wang clan expand across China, with the Taiyuan and Langya branches becoming the most distinguished.
