The Zhou Dynasty was divided into the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Western Zhou Dynasty. The Western Zhou Dynasty lasted from the middle of 2 1 century BC to 77 1 century BC. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty lasted from 770 BC to 256 BC. The Western Zhou Dynasty was founded by Zhou Wuwang and Ji Fa. Haojing, its capital! At the end of the Western Zhou Dynasty in 770 BC. King Ji Yi of Zhou Ping moved the capital to Luoyi. From then on, the Zhou Dynasty entered the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, also known as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The Zhou Dynasty was the third and last four-star slavery dynasty in the history of China. Since then, Qin and Han Dynasties have become a unified country with a centralized government in China. Records in the history books refer to the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty as two weeks.
The reason why the Zhou Dynasty lasted for 800 years was mainly because the land system of the Zhou Dynasty implemented the well field system. Compared with the private ownership of land in the late feudal society, this system is backward in productivity, but the relationship between population and land is not as close as that in the late feudal dynasty. This kind of land system made the population of Zhou Dynasty less dependent on land, and there were few large-scale rebellions. The rule of Zhou Dynasty has many characteristics, such as feudal system, patriarchal clan system and well field system in land system, which provides favorable conditions for the long-term survival of Zhou Dynasty. But in 78 1 BC, Zhou Youwang succeeded to the throne. Fortunately, concubines praised improper employment, and natural and man-made disasters at that time made people's grievances boil, which led to the rebellion of governors, the killing of Zhou Youwang and the demise of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The following year, Zhou Pingwang succeeded to the throne. Moved the capital to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, but after the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the influence of the Zhou royal family was greatly reduced, and the vassal power was huge, and the disputes intensified, so the Zhou Dynasty gradually went to extinction and entered the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
There is no exact historical record of the establishment time of the Zhou Dynasty, so the establishment time cannot be verified and the specific survival time cannot be calculated.
