Northern Qi and Northern Wei were two political powers during China and Southern Dynasties. The Northern Wei Dynasty was the first dynasty of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. It was established by the Xianbei tribe, Tuoba Gui. Northern Qi was the successor of Eastern Wei and was established by Gao Yang. There were some differences between the two governments in terms of clothing and Buddha statues. The clothing style of the Northern Wei Dynasty was to wear a shoulder-length or shoulder-length coat, which was distributed in a U or V shape, with deep patterns and bulging lines. Northern Qi insisted on wearing Hu clothes, all with V-neck robes and boots. In terms of Buddha statues, the Buddha statues of the Northern Wei Dynasty were square and slightly thin. Their foreheads were wide, and their backlights were in the shape of lotus petals. On the other hand, the Buddha statues of Northern Qi were getting fatter and fatter. The lines of their facial features were getting softer and softer, and the hairline of a snail appeared on their heads. In general, there were some differences between Northern Qi and Northern Wei in terms of clothing and Buddha statues.

The word "Wei" could be used to form words such as "Cui Wei", which meant tall and majestic. In Chinese characters, the word "Wei" evolved from pictograms. In addition, there were some place names that contained the word "Wei", such as "Mawei Slope".
Northern Qi, Eastern Wei, and Northern Zhou were the three most important political powers in China during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Northern Qi was established by Gao Yang and inherited the territory of Eastern Wei. It occupied the vast area of the lower reaches of the Yellow River. The Eastern Wei was established by Gao Huan, replacing the Northern Wei, but was later replaced by the Northern Qi. The Northern Zhou Dynasty was established by Yuwen Tai and replaced the Western Wei Dynasty. There were some differences in the administrative measures of these three governments. Northern Qi mainly advocated Xianbei culture. Agriculture, salt and iron industry, and porcelain manufacturing were quite developed. It was the richest of the three countries at that time. Both the Eastern Wei and the Northern Zhou had implemented the Land Equalization System, but the Northern Zhou was even more determined and thorough in its implementation of this policy. The existence of Northern Qi, Eastern Wei, and Northern Zhou laid the foundation for the prosperity of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
