Gaohou (高后), Lü Zhi (吕雉), 187 BC – 180 BC

Han Jingdi (汉景帝), Liu Qi (刘启), 156 BC – 141 BC
Han Wudi (汉武帝), Liu Che (刘彻), 140 BC – 87 BC

GZ, Shouldn't there be two emperors between Han Hidi and Han Wendi or did you put Gaohou there because she was the one really in power?

The two emperors are Liu Gong (劉恭), and Liu Hong (劉弘).

[General_Zhaoyun]

Guess I missed that.. Gaohou is in power. just added the two emperors to the list.

"It can either be called "Shu" or "Shu-han".. officially, it's called Shu. "

Actually officially, its Han, the dynasty was Han, its only Shu Han because the territory there was the ancient kingdom of Shu.

Why is the Liao Empire always considered but not the Dali/Nan Chao Kingdom that is now (roughly) the Yunnan Province? Is it because the Liao traced themselves back to the Tang?

[General_Zhaoyun]

The Nan Chao was at that time considered a foreign kingdom during Tang dynasty. It was not part of Chinese dynasty . Nanzhao has kings who did not declare themselves as chinese emperor. This happened also to the powerful Tubo (Tibetan) kingdom during Tang dynasty era. Thus, chinese history do not considere Nanzhao or Tubo as chinese dynasty. However, Liao, Jin, and Xixia empire all had emperors named after chinese convention and thus were considered chinese dynasty.

Don't forget Yuan Shikai!!!

In December of 1911 Sun Yat Sen was elected President of the Republic of China. However, that only lasted for two months. He resigned in favor of Yuan Shikai. Yuan had the most powerful army in China under his command and he used the confusion of the revolution to his advantage. Yuan ruled from 1912-1916. He even attempted to bring back the monarchy. From December 12, 1915 to March 22, 1916 he ruled as Emperor of China with the reign name Hongxian. However, this move wasn't supported by anyone. Yuan backed down and died a few months later.

[Findlay]

I believe Hua Guofeng was in power from 1976 to 1978, although I could be wrong on the dates. And also perhaps Hong Xiuquan and Hong Tianguifu also deserve to be mentioned as rulers - since they presided over a considerable area of China (Taiping Tianguo). And since other rulers who ruled during partitions of the empire were listed... but anyway, just a thought.

Hi GZ,

Was browsing through when I noticed that the link above is not working anymore. Maybe you can changed the link to the one where we listed out the various emperors of the 16 dynasties? The link is http://www.chinahist...p?showtopic=769
