The Ming-Zheng Period 明鄭時期 (中文) refers to the brief span between 1661–1683 when modern-day Tainan 台南 and other parts of southwestern Taiwan were controlled by the descendants of Koxinga 國姓爺, a polity known as the Kingdom of Tungning 東寧王國. Shortly after the decisive Battle of Penghu the last ruler of the Kingdom of Tungning surrendered and parts of modern-day Taiwan were incorporated into Fujian Province 福建省, thus beginning the Qing dynasty era.
