4. Yue (state)Yue was a state in China which existed during the Spring and Autumn Period (722–479 BCE) and the Warring States Period (475–221 BCE), in the modern province of Zhejiang. During the Spring and Autumn Period, its capital was in Guiji (会稽), near the modern city of Shaoxing. After the conquest of Wu, the kings of Yue moved their capital north, to Wu. According to Sima Qian, its rulers claimed to be descended from Yu the Great. The annotation to the Guoyu mentions that their surname was Mi (芈).
