History
Under the Ming Empire in 1524, a peasant uprising led by Chen Liu took place in these places. After the uprising was suppressed, Pinshun County was established in 1529 for better administrative control of the troubled territory. Under the Qing Empire in 1764, it was disbanded.
In 1912, the county was created again, but in 1915 it was again disbanded. In 1917, the county was re-created.
In 1949, Changzhi Special District (长治 专区) was formed, and the county became part of it. In 1958, Changzhi Special District was renamed the Jindongnan Special Region (晋东南 专区); Pingshun County was divided between Licheng and Huguan counties. In 1960, Pingshun County was recreated.
In 1970, the Jindongnan Special Region was renamed the Jindongnan District (晋东南 地区). In 1985, by the decision of the State Council of the People's Republic of China, the city of Changzhi and Jindongnan County were disbanded, and the urban districts of Changzhi and Jincheng were formed on their territory; the county became part of the Changzhi urban district.
