The chronology of the Three Kingdoms and the Western Jin Dynasty, the difference between the Eastern

First of all, let's say a few words about the age of the founding of the three states.

Wei 220-265

Shu 221-263

Wu 229-280

Wei destroyed Shu in 263, there are still 2 countries left in the Three Kingdoms, Wei and Wu, in 265 AD, Wei mutiny, controlled by the Sima family, just like Wei replaced the Eastern Han Dynasty, Sima replaced the Cao family, the state political system has not changed, but the controller has changed, of course, the country name has also changed, so up to now, the three countries, Shu was destroyed by Wei, Wei was mutiny by Sima, then in a sense, 2 countries have disappeared, then only Wu is left in the Three Kingdoms, and the Western Jin Dynasty destroyed Wu in 280 AD, The last country of the Three Kingdoms has been wiped out! This history of the Three Kingdoms has also disappeared!

The Western Jin Dynasty existed before the fall of the entire Three Kingdoms, because the mutiny replaced Wei, and Wu had not been destroyed, and the Three Kingdoms still had the country of Wu, and this history was not over, so although the Western Jin Dynasty was established, the Three Kingdoms were not destroyed, because the Western Jin Dynasty replaced Wei and Shu in 263 and 265 AD, and Wu only died out in 280, so the Western Jin Dynasty was established before the fall of the Three Kingdoms!

To put it simply, Sima Yan (the founder) of the Western Jin Dynasty had already held great power in the Wei State, and two years after the destruction of Shu, Wei was abolished and self-reliant, when the Eastern Wu was still there, and you should specifically say that the Three Kingdoms had been established before all the destruction.

The division between the Three Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties was based on the time of their demise, and the change of dynasties in history was not entirely established after the fall of one after the other, because at that time the country had not yet been unified, and no one stipulated that the one-China principle must be observed.

The establishment of the Three Kingdoms and the policies of various countries marked the imminent situation of unifying the world, that is, the Great Jin Dynasty of Sima Tianxia.

After the Sima family seized power, they did not destroy Wu and did not unify China.

1. According to the location of the capital: the Western Jin Dynasty takes Luoyang as the capital in the west, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty takes Jiankang as the capital in the east.

2. Direction of the control territory: The control range of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is roughly in the southeast, while the control of the Western Jin Dynasty extends to the northwest.

3. Reason: Historical habits: In order to facilitate the distinction between the evolution of political power, historians generally use the east and west directions to distinguish dynasties.

4. Eastern Jin Dynasty (317 420): It was established by the Western Jin Dynasty after Sima Rui moved south, and the Western Jin Dynasty that built the capital Luoyang fell, known as the Eastern Jin Dynasty in history. Most of the ruling areas of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were in Jiangdong, which was called Jiangzuo in ancient times, so Jiangzuo referred to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

The above is an introduction to how the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty were divided.

The Jin Dynasty was divided into two periods, the Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The Western Jin Dynasty was a unified dynasty after the Three Kingdoms period in Chinese history. The Eastern Jin Dynasty was established by the Western Jin Dynasty royal family Sima Rui after moving south.

The Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty are both names used by later generations to distinguish these two dynasties, and they themselves are called the Jin Dynasty in history. The difference between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty: The capital of the Western Jin Dynasty was in Luoyang, and the capital of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was in Nanjing.

The Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty are both names used by later generations to distinguish these two dynasties, and they themselves are called "Jin Dynasty" in history. However, since after the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty, its descendants established a new "Jin" regime in the south, so that it would not cause ambiguity and confusion for the convenience of research and designation, so the distinction between "west" and "east" was made. The Jin Dynasty (266-420), a dynasty in Chinese history, was divided into the Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty, of which the Western Jin Dynasty was one of the great unified dynasties in Chinese history, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty belonged to one of the six dynasties, with a total of 155 emperors in the two Jin Dynasty.

The relationship between the twoThe Jin Dynasty was a dynasty in Chinese history, which was divided into two periods: the Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Among them, the Western Jin Dynasty is one of the great unified dynasties in Chinese history, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty belongs to one of the six dynasties, with a total of 15 emperors in the two Jin Dynasty, a total of 155 years.

Introduction to the Western Jin DynastyIn 266 A.D., Sima Yan usurped Wei, established political power, the country name was Jin, the capital was Luoyang, known as the Western Jin Dynasty in history, Sima Yan was only Emperor Wu of Jin. In 280 AD, the Western Jin Dynasty destroyed Wu and completed unification. After experiencing the Rebellion of the Eight Kings and the disaster of Yongjia, the country gradually declined.

In 313, Emperor Chu of the Jin Dynasty moved the capital to Chang'an, and in 316, the Western Jin Dynasty was destroyed by the Huns.

Introduction to the Eastern Jin DynastyIn 317, the royal family of the Western Jin Dynasty crossed the south of the Yangtze River, and Sima Rui continued the Jin Dynasty in Jianye, known as the Eastern Jin Dynasty in history. The Eastern Jin Dynasty made many northern expeditions to the Han region in the Central Plains. After the battle between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Former Qin Dynasty in 383, the Eastern Jin Dynasty won more with less and was temporarily consolidated.

During the two Jin dynasties, the Han people who migrated south from the north brought a large amount of productivity and advanced technology to the south of the Yangtze River, and further developed the south of the Yangtze River. In 420, Liu Shan returned to Yu to establish Liu Song, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty perished. Chinese history entered the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
