History of Asia

Countries that can't be helped-Do you know the country called "Liang" in the Wei Jin North and South Dynasties?

How many people in Japan know more about the country of Liang?

It was one of the countries that existed during the Wei Jin North and South Dynasties, and although it was a short-lived nation that had died only about 50 years after its founding, it was a useless nation with seven emperors.

If you know that there were four nations in the Southern Court, Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen, in high school history textbooks, you would be a maniac and you wouldn't know what those nations were. ??

So this time, let's take a look at one of the four dynasties of the Southern Court, "Liang"!

The Liang royal family is the same as Mr. Qi

Mr. Xiao is a clan who claims to be the descendant of Xiao He, the Grand Chancellor of Han who won the Chu-Han War, and the origin is not well understood.

It was Mr. Wu who founded Qi after destroying Song, who destroyed Eastern Jin by a de facto coup d'etat, but it seems that he was always fighting for the emperor within the clan, and it is only 23 years after the founding of the same clan. Will destroy Qi.

The country created in this way is the subject of this time, Liang, but Liang is also a bad nation like Qi.

After the founding of the dynasty, it seems that he started reforms such as the reform of the Nine-rank system and laid down a good government as it was, but it soon became useless. The first emperor, Emperor Wu, is a literary emperor who encourages scholarship, but the clan is at a loss anyway.

Mr. Bao is a clan who likes to pull the legs of the clan at the same level as Mr. Sima, and Hou Jing, who is the worst class in China's history, is drawn in by being pierced by that part.

Hou Jing and his rival, Eastern Wei, are supposed to fight, but he joins hands with Xiao Zhengde, one of Mr. Xiao, and attacks Jiankang, the capital.

Liang has decided to siege and wait for relief, but the planned reinforcements do not come at all. In the meantime, food was added and the capital became hell. Many of the allies who should rush to the rescue were members of the clan, but they decided to stand by in this emergency. A bad nation here!

However, at this time, Wudi was over 80 years old and may not have been in the stage of conducting properly. Although a consensus was reached once, it was easily abandoned and the warrior was captured and died as it was.

Hou Jing, who caused the capital to fall, established a puppet government and named himself a space general.

Such an outrage did not last long and was easily defeated in the fight against Chen. The battle for the emperor begins again between the clan.

While the clan was doing "I am the emperor!" "No, I am the emperor!", It was destroyed by the hero who defeated Hou Jing, and a new country "Chen" was born.

6 In the morning, the clan fought and perished.

Six dynasties, Eastern Jin, Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen, were founded in Gangnam, counting from Wu, who had built dynasties in Gangnam since the Three Kingdoms period.

In the latter half, a weak and short-lived nation was conspicuous, but in this area of ​​this era, "Wen Xuan" by the master of calligraphy, Tao Yuanming, the master of poetry, Gu Kaizhi, the master of painting, and the son of Emperor Wu of Liang, who appeared this time. An excellent culture is born, and it is sometimes called the 6th morning culture.

Although culturally superior, politically, the clan's struggle for succession intensified like Liang this time, and the regime was fragile.

The fragility is especially manifested in Qi and Liang, which leads to the collapse of the 6th morning culture.

But it was also the beginning of a new era. Approximately 40 years after Liang's destruction, the new Chinese champion, Emperor Wen of Sui, reunites China.
