There were many dynasties in history that were considered to be relatively useless, but it was difficult to have a clear answer to the question of which dynasty was the most useless because each dynasty had its advantages and disadvantages. In the history books, there were relatively few records of which dynasty was the most useless because the history books usually focused on the rise and fall of the dynasty, and the evaluation and description of each dynasty were relatively objective. However, the records of some dynasties were indeed more negative. For example, the Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, Later Zhou, and other dynasties of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms were described as chaotic and turbulent periods. Although some dynasties had some shortcomings, there were relatively few records, such as the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. Although these two dynasties also had their shortcomings, there were relatively few evaluations and descriptions of them in the history books. Therefore, to answer the question of which dynasty was the most useless, one needed to consider it according to different standards and perspectives.
