The chieftains of Tsanla were descendants of a Bon lama. He established the chiefdom in the end of the Ming dynasty. By the time of the Ming-Qing transition, he swore allegiance to Qing emperor, and was appointed Native Chieftain (Tusi).[2][3]

Later, Tsanla came into conflict with Chiefdom of Chuchen (Greater Jinchuan). After Jinchuan campaigns, it was annexed by Qing China.[2][4]
