Was the Xin really a dynasty, even though it was wedged between the Eastern and the Western Han periods. Were the Three Kingdoms of the same country anymore? The Shun dynasty only lasted a few weeks before the Manchus took over and formed the Qing, so does it count as a dynasty? More questions are always…

social harmony, created by the moral example of superiors, and humanism according to Li (ritual norms), Zhou (loyalty to one’s true nature), Shu (reciprocity), and Xiao (filial piety).

That is until the first emperor of Han passed through the country of Lu in 195 CE and sacrificed at the tomb of the sage. This action marks the beginnings of national worship of Confucius. This also prompted three emperors of the Han dynasty, Ming-ti, Cheng-ti, and Zhang-ti, to offer sacrifices in honor of Confucius and his seventy-two disciples. These…
