The prefecture as a whole has an area of about and, in 2010, a population of about 1.71 million. History The site of Shuozhou was the ancient Chinese frontier town of Mayi (), which was used as a trading post between China and the Xiongnu nomads of the eastern Eurasian steppe. In 201BC, the founder of the Han dynasty Liu Bang (posthumously known as Emperor Gaozu or the "High Ancestor") moved Han Xin from his fief around Yuzhou in Henan to Mayi, where he was attacked by the Xiongnu. Finding himself distrusted by the Han emperor, Han Xin allied with the Xiongnu instead and joined them on their raids against China until his death in battle in 196BC. Mayi was subsequently the capital of Dai Prefecture and the scene of an attempted ambush of the Xiongnu by Chinese troops in 133BC. During the chaos betwe ...

	Battle Of Mayi The Battle of Mayi (), also known as the Scheme of Mayi (馬邑之謀) or the Encirclement at Mayi (馬邑之圍), was an abortive ambush operation by the Han dynasty against the invading Xiongnu forces led by Junchen Chanyu, with minimal casualties from both sides. Although no fighting took place, it marked the end of ''de jure'' peace between the Han dynasty and the Xiongnu, and led to the beginning of the subsequent Han–Xiongnu Wars. The failure of the operation also motivated the Han court to develop effective cavalry forces and the use of offensive expeditionary military policies. Background Before the Battle of Mayi, there had been two main encounters between the Han Chinese and the Xiongnu. During the Warring States period, General Li Mu of the State of Zhao defeated the Xiongnu by luring them deep inside Zhao territory and ambushing them. With similar tactics, General Meng Tian of the Qin dynasty drove the Xiongnu north for and built the Great Wall at the edge of ...

(Original description) The shell is thin, oval, and white, comprising four whorls in addition to a brown protoconch with two whorls.

The spire whorls are convex, sharply angulate at the middle with a distinct cord, and the base is contracted, forming a moderately long siphonal canal that curves slightly to the left. The sutures are distinct and finely canaliculated. The aperture is obliquely oval, with a thin, simple outer lip that is ridged externally by the spirals. At the angulation, there is an obtuse, shallow, and wide triangular sinus. Sculpture: From the suture to the angle, the surface slopes back, then bends forward at an obtuse angle towards ...

picture info	Mai-Mai The term Mai-Mai or Mayi-Mayi refers to any kind of community-based militia group active in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) that is formed to defend local communities and territory against other armed groups. Most were formed to resist the invasion of Rwandan forces and Rwanda. Groups that fall under the umbrella term "Mai-Mai" include armed forces led by warlords, traditional tribal elders, village heads and politically motivated resistance fighters. Because Mai Mai have only the most tenuous internal cohesion, different Mai-Mai groups allied themselves with a variety of domestic and foreign government and guerrilla groups at different times. The term Mai-Mai refers not to any particular movement, affiliation or political objective but to a broad variety of groups. The name comes from the Swahili word for water, '' maji''. Militia members sprinkle themselves with water to protect themselves from bullets.E.F. Kisangani, S.F. BobbHistorical Dictionary of the Democrati ...
