The rulers of this small regional state located near modern Qixian 杞縣, Henan were descendants of the Xia dynasty 夏 (20th-17th cent. BCE) and therefore were made regional rulers of this territory. There is virtually nothing known about the history of this small state, except a list of its rulers. In 445 BCE, Qi was conquered by Chu 楚.
