    Every story has a start, and to better tell the story of the weakening of the Han and the rebellions by the Yellow Turbans and the Liang Province in the Mandate of Heaven DLC, we must start in the year 144 when in the span of three years, four emperors would ascend the throne leading to a puppet government controlled by the powerful Liang clan!

    Cao Cao:
    - Children of Great Eunuch.
    - "Loyal" to Han Empire.
    - Recruit Yellow Turban as his army.
    It look like he is the Successor of every sides from the 17X-18X period.

    When an emperor dies…
    Emperor’s child: Yeah! I am the king of the country! Yahoo! I can do whatever I want!
    Regent(s): Nope, kiddo! I call the shots and I want you to stand in front and look pretty!
    Child Emperor: Oh come on! It’s not fair!

    I love your lore video especially this one. I only know that the downfall of Han began after the era of Han Ming Di and Han Zhang Di. Everything just went south for the Han dynasty from there, but I might understand wrongly.

    • @SeriousTrivia
      @SeriousTrivia  4 года назад +5

      Han Zhang Di’s son Han He Di was pretty decent too but both of their problem was dying too young. When Han He Di died his heir was 100 days old. That’s when you start getting problems. It wasn’t that the emperors were inept it was just that they were too young and gave the other factions a chance to gain real power.

    i wrote the following on cody bonds video of the accurate history of the mandate of heaven. copied and pasted to share here:
    "sending unnecessarily large armies and maintaining costly fortifications in the western regions while the poor are taxed to revolt back in china proper. dong zhuo was probably one of these frontier military men who turned back with his men to wreak havoc.
    but remember if the armies aren't sent abroad to expand china's interests then wouldn't they be fighting each other at home? remember before the establishment of the han dynasty china was mostly fighting itself with the chu-han contention and before that the grand unification of the feudal kingdoms under the qin.
    it would be like say if the european nations hadn't been fighting amongst each other they'd be organizing crusades or colonialism etc..
    but i do think that something went wrong with the system or perhaps the system wasn't perfect and wasn't meant to last in the first place. there was a little ice age, other natural disasters, among human errors or perhaps these two happened at the same time. nevertheless history is history.
    by this point i think the eunuchs and the emperor were in cahoots with each other. when you say luzhi is accused of treason it probably meant that luzhi was a little proud, arrogant, and refused to pay homage to the eunuchs who were in fact agents working for the imperial household. which is why even though the han dynasty is the name given to china of this period and that the imperial household and throne belongs to the liu family but there are many other factions, commanderies, characters, and peoples within. and the imperials could have been seen as but one faction among many. and as such it will act with its own selfish means. the reason why the yellow turban grew to be so large and successful, and by successful i mean on the rise is because it captured, understood, was part of, and represented the interests of the greater majority at the time. which its leader like zhangjiao preached and represented.
    how and why it became locked in a fight against everyone. namely at first when the yellow turbans turned the great poor masses against their master the emperor. the emperor had to call on the feudal lords who were more or less once on par with the imperial faction but were humbled as the empire was established. now they are called upon to defeat a faction of the people. the turbans became less successful and lost its importance at the battle of the red cliffs because since the core of cao cao's army was of the qingzhou army mainly from shandong which is a a northern region. they ceased to be militarily as well as ethically potent when they stepped to invade the southern lands without good justification. because once they were fighting for their livelihood and what they believed to be right but now at red cliff they were mere invaders in a foreign land".

      Max Meng I am a pretty simple person. It’s a virus and it doesn’t have agendas. It’s highly contagious but not extremely fatal which is the best combination for passing it on to the maximum number of people. We just all need to realize this and reduce the spread. If anything it shows how far behind the world healthcare system is in dealing with infectious diseases.
