The Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, also known as the Three Kingdoms, Two Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, were the period of most frequent regime changes in Chinese history. This book mainly talks about the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Due to the long-term feudal separatism and continuous wars, the development of Chinese culture during this period was particularly affected. Its outstanding manifestations are the rise of metaphysics, the import of Buddhism, and the rise of Taoism.
