Han Dynasty

The Silk Road

How the mighty have fallen! When one rules with an unjust iron hand, it quickly rusts and withers away. Thus is ended the oppressive rule of the short-lived Qin Dynasty. Though they gathered up and bound the many quarrelsome states of our land into a unified whole, their methods were too harsh. Their Mandate from Heaven has been lost! The people have thrown off the heavy shackles of Qin and now embrace the humble Liu Bang, recently crowned Gaodi, Son of Heaven and King of Han.
