Ü (region)
Ü (; pronounced w-, similar to English word "we") is a geographic division and a historical region in Tibet. Together with Tsang (Tib. གཙང་, gtsang), it forms Central Tibet Ü-Tsang (Tib. དབུས་གཙང་, Wyl. dbus gtsang), which is one of the three Tibetan regions or ''cholka'' (cholka-sum). The other two ''cholka'' are Kham (Tib. ཁམས་, Wyl. khams) (Dotod) and Amdo (Tib. ཨ༌མདོ;Wyl. a mdo) (Domed). According to a Tibetan saying, "the best religion comes from Ü-Tsang, the best men from Kham, and the best horses from Amdo".〔Tsepon W.D. Shakabpa, ''Tibet. A Political History''. Yale 1967, p, 2.〕
==Constituent districts==
Taken together, Ü and Tsang are considered to be the center of Tibetan civilization, from historical, cultural, political and economic perspectives.〔Helmut Hoffman, ''Tibet. A Handbook.'' Bloomington 1986, p. 2.〕 They are centered on the valley of the Yarlung Tsangpo River, which flows eastward at about above sea level. Of this territory, Ü constitutes the eastern portion, up to Sokla Kyao in the east where it borders to Kham. It includes the Lhasa River valley system, where Lhasa is situated, and the Yarlung and Chonggye valleys to the south of the Tsangpo.〔http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/153223/Dbus-Gtsang〕
During the period of Mongol rule at the end of the 13th century, Ü and Tsang were divided in thirteen myriarchies (''trikor''). The exact list of myriarchies varies somewhat from source to source. According to ''The Song of the Spring Queen'', the chronicle of the 5th Dalai Lama, those of Ü were Gyama, Drikung, Tsalpa, Thangpochewa, Phagmodru, and Yazang. Some lists have Taglung instead of Thangpochewa.〔Giuseppe Tucci, ''Tibetan Painted Scrolls''. Rome 1949, p. 681.〕
