| Discussing Politics & Religion |
|
| In 130 BC i decided that we needed to be more aggressive when we approached foreign nations. My army conquered Southern china, Vietnam, and Korea. Even though I did not believe in confucianism, i still taught it to my people. I founded a university to teach confucianism. | |
|
| During my reign, I taught feudalism. I wasnt liked by my people, and they called me cruel and ruthless, but I did what needed to be done for china. I was said to have started the Han dynasty. I made peace with nearby tribes that were going to attack us. | |

| Arguing Who Was More Successful |
|
| I died in 187 BC. When I died, my eight year old son took over in my place as emperor. My 15 year old son, was the real heir to the throne, but he was accused of witchcraft. The people did not was a sorcerer in the throne, so he committed suicide. | |
|
| I died in 195 BC. The han dynasty survived into 24 AD. My teaching and the teachings of emperors after me stayed up until the twentieth century. | |
