Where it comes from

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of Mandarin 重慶 /重庆 (Chóngqìng).

proper noun Chong-qing · Chong Qing · Chungking · Chungching · Ch'ung-ch'ing · Tchang-king

  1. A direct-administered municipality and city in western China. Nanking attempted to maintain a nominal sovereignty by appointing Liu Xiang commissioner for the suppression of banditry (that is, communism) in 1933, but the province really eluded its control, and continued to do so until 1938, when the central government was driven back to Chongqing.
