The Fat-sharing Game of the Han Dynasty
About This Novel
This book analyzes the 400-year history of power distribution in the Han Dynasty from a unique political game perspective. It compares the politics of the early Han Dynasty to a grand card game, vividly demonstrates how Liu Bang, as a "banker", dealt with "players" such as the hero group, princes and kings, and reveals the profound contradiction between the central and local governments under the "parallel system of prefectures and states". As the chapters progress, the work goes deeper into the centralization plot of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the rise of the Confucian scholar group, the out-of-control land annexation, to the disputes between relatives and eunuchs in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the disasters of the party, and finally ends with the warlord separatism triggered by the Yellow Turban Uprising. It completely presents the entire process of the power structure of the Han Dynasty from establishment to disintegration, and profoundly explains the power of institutional design and benefit distribution to shape the fate of the dynasty.
