Discussing Politics and Religion |
|
 | I ruled as emperor for seven years. Feudalism was revived under my reign. My relatives were assigned as the new vassals. I am known as a cruel and ruthless leader. |  |
|
 | My reign was 46 years long. In that time, I took control or Southern China, most of Vietnam and Korea, and Furgana. I had my army attack the people north of China, who threatened my empire. I also greatly appreciated Confucianism. |  |

Arguing Who Was More Successful |
|
 | Well, I got rid of many harsh laws. I made peace with tribes from Mongolia. Also, I founded the Han dynasty. My influence in art, science, and literature lasted for centuries. |  |
|
 | I was more successful than you, because I conquered more land. I dedicated almost my entire life to protecting China. Under my rule, China controlled all salt, wine, and iron trade. I made Confucianism the state religion of China, and had a university built for studying Confucian writings. |  |
