| Meeting for the first time |
|
 | Hello, I'm Wudi and I was decided to be emperor when I was seven. And eventually made emperor at sixteen, even know I wasn't the oldest son of the king.I was emperor in the Han dynasty. I was born at around 156BC. For my early rule as emperor I ruled most under the influence of his relatives and political officials. | |
|
| Hello, Im Liu Bang and I was a peasant.My father was a farmer and I worked as a police officer, but that was all before I became the emperor. I led a rebellion to kick Hsiang Yu(a warlord who attempted to seize control of China) out of the throne.This led into a civil war against Hsiang Yu army. The war lasted four years, but when Hsiang Yu commit suicide I gained control of China. | |

| Discussing Politics and Religion |
|
| When I was ruler I started many wars. This may have caused China to be on a low budget, but I made China gain lots of land. I also believed in confucianism and started a university to study his teachings. In fact, in order to work in the government you had to pass a test based around confucism. | |
|
| For me, I believe in feudalism. Now I didn't build a university for it, or make people pass a test on feudalism to work in the government, but I believed in it. People call me a cruel and ruthless leader, but I also did many good things for China. An example is that I lowered taxes on peasants. | |

| Arguing Over Who Was More Successful |
|
| If anybody in the world got asked who was I a better ruler, me or you, they wouldn't even have to think before they Wudi. I mean, I built a university for a religion. I was a man who would do anything to make his country, even if that means that we don't have too much money. | |
