At the end of the Tang Dynasty and the beginning of the Song Dynasty, there were dozens of military entities that existed in China, namely the Five Dynasties: Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and Later Zhou; there were also countries that competed for the Central Plains and were crowned kings and emperors. They were either united or separated from the Five Dynasties, but did not belong to each other. They were called the Ten Kingdoms: Wu, Chu, Fujian, Southern Tang, Former Shu, Later Shu, Southern Han, Northern Han, Wuyue, and Jingnan. They competed, killed, annexed, split, rose, and fell, showing a very complex and ever-changing situation of the rise and fall of the Five Dynasties and the disputes between the Ten Kingdoms. The grievances and resentments among various military entities, the internal intrigues between monarchs and ministers, and the intrigues among powerful ministers have led to frequent changes in political power and rapid changes in the situation. Complex historical events and numerous historical figures constitute one vivid, true and unpredictable historical story after another.
