Xia Dynasty (about 2050 BC-about 65438 BC+0600 BC)
The establishment of Xia dynasty
According to legend, during the Yao, Shun and Yu dynasties, the tribal alliance adopted the method of "abdication" to "choose the best and appoint the best" and elected the co-owner of the world. Yao was old and gave the throne to Saint Shun. Shun was old and gave the throne to Yu, who was old and passed it on to his son Qi. Since then, abdication system has been replaced by hereditary system. Yu is the leader of the Xia tribe alliance in the Central Plains. After he became the world's "co-owner", he established an army, conquered the three southern Miao, built a city, formulated a criminal law, and established the first slave country in China's history-the Xia Dynasty.
Yu Xia changed from him to the hereditary system of the throne through his son, not the previous abdication system. There were 13 generations in Xia dynasty, and 16 kings. The center of Xia Dynasty is in the west of Henan and the south of Shanxi. It is said that after the death of Qi, Taikang ascended the throne and there was a temporary regime change, which was called "mourning the country". After the revival of Shao Kang, the Xia Dynasty was rebuilt. During the reign of Confucius, the Xia Dynasty declined. After that, the three spread to Valerian and the Xia Dynasty perished. About 400 years later, it was destroyed by the Shang Dynasty.
