Founded by the state of Shu prior to its incorporation into China, Chengdu is unique as a major Chinese settlement that has maintained its name mostly unchanged throughout the imperial, republican, and communist eras.

During World War II, refugees from eastern China fleeing from the Japanese settled in Chengdu.
