This Tang Chao is a little differentThe Tang Dynasty was a dynasty with rich content. In terms of territory, its size was constantly changing. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan was only one of the vassals at the end of the Sui Dynasty. He even paid tribute to the Eastern Turks. Later, Emperor Taizong, Emperor Gaozong, and other emperors continued to expand. During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, his territory reached its peak, covering the Western Regions, Mobei, Northeast, and other vast regions. However, due to various factors, it shrank later. In terms of politics, it had experienced the rule of many emperors. For example, Li Yuan, the founder of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, made the society prosperous. Wu Zetian changed the name of the country to the Great Zhou Dynasty and then restored the name of the Tang Dynasty. Li Longji, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, made the national power reach its peak. Later, it declined due to the An Shi Rebellion. In the later period, there were problems such as eunuch autocracy and constant independent forces, until it finally perished. From a cultural point of view, the Tang Dynasty was full of stars and the culture flourished. This was due to its grand, tolerant and open social environment. Many poets such as Li Bai, Du Fu and Bai Juyi created a large number of excellent poems under the contrast of wine culture, becoming the treasure of Chinese traditional culture. In addition, the Tang Dynasty had a total of 21 emperors (including special cases such as Wu Zetian), which lasted 289 years and used as many as 76 year titles. In short, the Tang Dynasty had a unique and complex performance in many aspects such as territory, politics, and culture.
Love the story so far. Hope it progresses more but it has a steady pace so far. A little different from otyers in this genre something old with something new and a different twist but a good read.
