The establishment and demise of the Western Jin Dynasty
After decades of war in the three countries, the fruits of the Cao Wei regime fell into the hands of the Sima family. Sima clan was a Cao Wei clan in the Three Kingdoms period, and took control of the Wei regime after the Gao Ping Ling incident. In 265, Sima Yan forced Cao Huan, Emperor of Wei Yuan, to take the Zen position, and his title was greatly promoted, that is, Emperor Wu of Jin. In 280, the Western Jin Dynasty destroyed Sun Wu and unified the world, but the situation of peace and stability only lasted for a short period of eleven years. After Emperor Jinhui succeeded to the throne, the court gradually became chaotic, and the kings who mastered the military power fought for power one after another, which was known as the Eight Kings Rebellion in history. After the Jin Dynasty was badly weakened, the nationalities who moved in took the opportunity to dispatch troops, resulting in five chaos, and a large number of people and clans began to cross south. In 3 16, the western Jin dynasty was destroyed by the regime established by the Huns, and the north entered the period of five lakes and sixteen countries.
The Rise and Fall of Eastern Jin Dynasty
After the demise of the Western Jin Dynasty, the Jin royal family competed to cross south. In 3 17, when Jin crossed the south, Si Marui established the Eastern Jin Dynasty under construction, and accordingly the territory of southern China was formed. The clansmen and civilians in the Central Plains have moved southward in succession, forming a situation in which China's northern expatriates and southern aborigines live together.
In the early Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wang Dao and others adopted the strategy of "town and town" to stabilize the situation. But the imperial power declined, and it was mainly controlled by imperial clan. Because soldiers are more important than internal work, and imperial power control is weak, many towns are ambitious, and Wang Dun rebellion, Soviet rebellion and Huan Wen dictatorship have occurred successively. Although some nobles in power had the intention to recover lost ground and launched several northern expeditions before and after, the imperial court was worried that careerists would expand their power by this, and most of them gave negative support.
In 383, the former Qin Dynasty sent a Buddhist teacher to destroy the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In the face of the disaster of national subjugation, in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the monarch and ministers are united in one mind, and the water war will win. Xie Xuan and other generals successfully recovered a lot of lost land, which led to the disintegration of the former Qin Dynasty and the change of the military and political pattern in the north, thus temporarily consolidating the rule of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. However, in the late Eastern Jin Dynasty, factional competition and Huan Xuan Uprising occurred again. The burden on civilians is heavy and there is rebellion. Joe always established himself in Shu. Finally, the rise of Emperor Wu of Song put down the chaos, won the throne by military power, and entered the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Later, the burden on civilians became heavy, and the rebellion happened again. Joe always established himself in Shu. Finally, the rise of Emperor Wu of Song put down the chaos and won the throne by military power. In 420, Emperor Wu of Song established the Song Dynasty, the Eastern Jin Dynasty perished and entered the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
Ruling Times and Cultural Development of Jin Dynasty
Jin Dynasty was divided into Western Jin Dynasty and Eastern Jin Dynasty. From Sima Yan's establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC) in 265 AD to Emperor Wu's destruction of the Eastern Jin Dynasty in 420 AD, the two Jin Dynasties lasted 156 years, that is to say, the Jin Dynasty had a history of 156 years. Although both Jin Dynasties ruled the world from chaos, and it was also a period of cultural decline in China since the end of Han Dynasty, they also made new progress in philosophy, literature, art, history, science and technology. Jin Dynasty culture is developing towards diversification, which is an era of cultural creation, conflict and integration. Because the exclusive position of Confucianism has been broken, philosophy, literature, art, history and science and technology have been innovated, and some of them have become independent knowledge. Contemporary ideas, including metaphysics, Taoism and Buddhism, spread from India to the East, and scholars gained the upper hand by talking openly. Because the frontier nationalities brought grassland culture, the Eastern Jin Dynasty had the Central Plains culture and Jiangnan culture, and the two sides gradually began cultural exchanges or ethnic integration.
