The Jin Dynasty was a dynasty in Chinese history that began in 265 and ended in 323. It was a dynasty that connected the past and the future in Chinese history, laying the foundation for the end of the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the beginning of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. However, due to the many complex political, social, and cultural events that occurred during the Jin Dynasty, modern history books largely ignored the Jin Dynasty. One of the most important reasons was the political system of the Jin Dynasty. During the Jin Dynasty, the political system changed from the enfeoffment system to the patriarch system, which led to the instability of the distribution of power and the aggravation of corruption. In addition, the social unrest and wars during the Jin Dynasty also brought great pain and losses to the country and the people. Another reason was the cultural events of the Jin Dynasty. There were many important cultural achievements during the Jin Dynasty, such as the completion of the Analects of Confucius and the prosperity of the Book of Songs. However, because these cultural achievements did not have a direct impact on politics, modern history books did not mention these cultural achievements too much. In summary, the complexity of the Jin Dynasty's political, social, and cultural events had led to a large-scale neglect of the Jin Dynasty in modern history books. However, the study of the history of the Jin Dynasty is still of great significance to help us better understand the transition period in Chinese history.
