The Dongyi tribes were mainly distributed in the eastern part of the Yellow River basin, including today's Shandong, Jiangsu, and other places. They were a tribe that worshiped the Sun God, so they were called Yi, which meant " people of the East." To be specific, the Dongyi tribe was roughly located in the Liaodong Peninsula, Shandong Peninsula, and the Huaihe River basin, spanning Shandong, Anhui, Jiangsu, Shanghai, and other provinces. However, Dongyi was not a tribe or a race. It was a collective name for many tribes and races, just like how southerners and northerners were now. Therefore, the Dongyi tribes were not a unified regime, but a loose alliance.
The exact location of Dongyi in Shandong was not mentioned, so it was impossible to know.
Dongyi Town was located in the Donggang District of Rizhao City of Shandong Province.
Dongyi was the tribe of the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor was one of the ancestors of Huaxia, and the ancestor of Dongyi, Taihao, was also a descendant of Fuxi. They shared the same ancestor. The main tribes of Dongyi were the Feng tribe, the Jiang tribe, the Ying tribe, the Yao tribe, and so on. Among them were Chiyou and the eldest son of the Yellow Emperor, Shaohao. Shao Hao was sent by the Yellow Emperor to the largest tribe in Dongyi, the Fenghong tribe, to train and become the leader of the Fenghong tribe and the entire Dongyi tribe. Therefore, it could be said that Dongyi was the Yellow Emperor's tribe.

According to historical records, the ancestor of Dongyi was Taihao, a descendant of Fuxi. The Dongyi tribes were mainly distributed in the eastern part of the Yellow River basin, including today's Shandong, Jiangsu, and other places.

There are many branches of Dongyi tribes, such as Laiyi, Yuyi, Niaoyi, Huaiyi, Xuyi, etc. They formed a loose tribal alliance. The leader of the earlier ones was called Taihao, also known as Fuxi, and his surname was Feng. The Taihao Tribe, like the other tribes in the Eastern Wasteland, used the phoenix as their totem. The Dongyi tribe had established their own country in ancient times and had many contacts with the dynasties of the Central Plains.

The relationship between the origin of the Shang Dynasty and the Dongyi tribes was controversial. There was a view that the Shang Dynasty was a branch of the Dongyi tribes. After they came to the Central Plains, they had a conflict with the local Xia tribes and gradually developed a highly developed bronze civilization. However, this view was also questioned. The Shang Dynasty showed hostility and contempt towards Dongyi in historical records, and launched many large-scale conquests against Dongyi. The merchant had never mentioned in the oracle bone inscriptions that his bloodline was related to Dongyi. Later historical records also showed that the kingdoms that occupied the Central Plains were not friendly to Dongyi. Both Shang and Zhou had made suppressing Dongyi the most basic national policy. Therefore, the question of whether the Shang Dynasty originated from the Dongyi tribe was still inconclusive.
