As we all know, the Han nationality is the main ethnic group of the Chinese nation. Whether it is compiling history or telling stories, it has the emotional color of being close to the Han nationality. For example, every time five random readers in China are mentioned, they will be indignant and praise Ran Min, a Han Chinese, repeatedly, just because it wiped out the Jie people who ate two-legged sheep and never doubted his records.
(Later generations are as tolerant of Wei Ran as they are of Dasong.)
In fact, Ran Min's "killing Hu Ling" is not necessarily true, and most of his classic battles are not recorded in reliable historical materials. However, he seized the country in Shi Hu, but the valerian clan was almost destroyed in michel platini Province, and then he named his son Khan to woo the conference semifinals, often killing his generals and ministers, leading to national subjugation, and once used a knife to deal with the Han people, and so on. Because of his Han Chinese status in Ran Min, his status is infinitely high. This is the heart of the Han nationality at work.
It is also the same psychology to define the Song Dynasty as a unified dynasty comparable to the Tang Dynasty, the Han Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. Xixia, Liao and Jin, etc. Standing side by side with the Song Dynasty, all are ethnic minority regimes. When they compiled history books, they used to take the Song Dynasty as the orthodoxy, and the imperial seal was indeed in the hands of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. However, it was different in the Qing Dynasty. Because the rulers of the Qing dynasty did not belong to the Han nationality, in order to please their masters, historians wrote history books at the same time, regardless of their primary and secondary status.
On the world map of the Song Dynasty, Liao's influence was better than that of the Song Dynasty.
The territory of the Song Dynasty was really small, even worse than that of the Jin and Liao countries. However, the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty has roughly included the territory of the Qin Empire, so it is no exaggeration to call it the Zhengshuo of China.
Song Dynasty, like Tang Dynasty, Jin Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, was born in troubled times and worked hard to rebuild a unified dynasty. The difference is that after the unification of the Central Plains and Jiangnan, both the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty successfully annihilated the powerful nomadic people in the north, especially the Tang Dynasty achieved an unprecedented submission to the four seas, and the Ming Dynasty also ensured the stability of the Central Plains for more than 270 years after expelling Tatars.
In contrast, the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty declined rapidly after reunification. The Western Jin Dynasty was attacked and destroyed by Xiongnu armed forces only 40 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Since then, it has been in a corner of the south. However, after the demise of the former Qin Dynasty, the country's imperial seal returned to the hands of the Eastern Jin Emperor, so the Eastern Jin Dynasty was also the new moon of China.
After the Song Dynasty inherited the mantle of the Later Zhou Dynasty, freight transportation flourished, ending the chaos of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms in a few years, but it was always in a dangerous situation surrounded by powerful enemies. When the powerful Qidan nationality in the north controlled sixteen states which were vital to the Central Plains Dynasty, the Song Dynasty became a threat to the north.
Zhao Kuangyin was an enterprising monarch, and later generations spoke highly of him.
Both Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi regard the recovery of sixteen states as their administrative goals. After destroying the Northern Han Dynasty, the last separatist regime in the Central Plains, they wanted to recapture sixteen states in one fell swoop. However, the Chinese Khitan nationality was too strong, and several northern expeditions in the Song Dynasty ended in failure. After the northern expedition of Yongxi, he never dared to use force against Liao again. Zhao Guangyi died 1 1 years later.
(Zhao Guangyi has been in power for more than 20 years and worked very hard, but he was defeated and fought many times in the military, and even Xixia was no match. )
Although the Song Dynasty suffered many wars and defeats, it was ridiculed as? Weak song? But the cultural achievements of the Song Dynasty are absolutely the highest in all previous dynasties. The TV series Qingpingle, which is being broadcasted, mainly reflects the social civilization of the Song Dynasty. It creatively no longer restricted the functional distinction between the city and the square, and introduced various policies that were beneficial to industry and commerce, which made the creativity of the society in Song Dynasty unprecedented. Three of the four great inventions were born in the Song Dynasty, and the prosperity of commodity economy brought unprecedented wealth to the Song Dynasty.
The GDP of the Song Dynasty was not as exaggerated as reported on the Internet. At that time, the GDP of China (including Liao, Xixia and Song) was not as good as that of India, accounting for about 23% of the world, and the proportion of Song was definitely higher than that of Xixia and Liao.
Maybe everyone didn't notice that the Song Dynasty was relatively clear, and there were almost no eunuchs and consorts who were good at power. In the feudal dynasty, all courtiers and citizens gained the greatest freedom, which created conditions for cultural and economic prosperity. It is also reasonable to designate it as a unified dynasty alongside the Tang, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
