This local system is, in turn, part of a regional system, including all of the Chinese-inhabited parts of Taiwan from Taoyan^{[sic – meaning Taoyuan]} and Zhongli in the south to Jilong in the north, with its market and administrative center at the twin cities of Megjia^{[sic – meaning Mengjia]} and Dadaocheng, which later became Taibei.
