The signing of a contract turned the two hostile countries into friendship and became brothers. During the Song Zhenzong era, the most important historical event was the signing of the "Chanyuan Alliance" with the Khitan. This is also one of the major events in the entire history of China. In 997 AD, Zhenzong Zhao Heng succeeded to the throne. At this time, it had been more than thirty years since the founding of the Song Dynasty, and peace began to appear in the empire. Compared with Taizu Taizong's commitment to world peace, Zhenzong went further. Before the "Alliance of Chanyuan", the legacy of "powerful rebellion" in the troubled times of the Five Dynasties still existed. The rebellions of Liu Wei and Wang Jun in Sichuan, the robbery of Changshou by King Chenliu, and the rebellion of Chen Jin in Guangxi brought some disturbances from time to time; the Khitan in the north continued to be the enemy of the Song Dynasty, and there was the "Battle of Guannan" consisting of a series of battles, and the "Battle of the Great Wall Entrance" in which the Song Dynasty mobilized nearly 50,000 cavalry. Despite this, Zhenzong still "summoned the harmony of heaven and earth", opened up a wide range of admonitions, promoted outstanding talents, helped disadvantaged groups, and planned a path to peace step by step with all living things.

Similarly, foreign civilizations are also experiencing self-confidence and crisis in their own culture, alternately belittling or elevating the "image of China" in their eyes. The "Image" theme of "Oriental History Review 02" is "Youth on the Assembly Line". I selected a group of photos of girls in the workshop. Look at those girls. Even work clothes cannot hide their youth and beauty. Along with their beautiful dreams, they are slowly disappearing on the assembly line.

The second half of the Shinsong era was almost a wonderful drama, drama, and farce. In this unprecedented political drama performance, Zhenzong Zhao Heng used the Central Plains as the stage under the script theme of "Shinto teachings", and the game was so exciting that it made him feel out of his body. The "Chanyuan Alliance" won a century of peace for China, truly enabled the people of the Central Plains to live and work in peace and contentment, and had a profound influence on China. However, the peaceful scene of "all nations coming to court" after the "peace negotiation" did not make Zhenzong happy. When he learned that the Khitan called itself the "Northern Dynasty" and the Song Dynasty the "Southern Dynasty" and was blessed by the gods, Zhao Heng realized that he had to do something great to have any hope of showing the world, mainly the Khitan, the rationality, legality, and legitimacy of the Song Empire, and that he was the true dragon emperor who was "ordered by heaven." Under this concept, Zhenzong successively directed four major "Shinto education" events including the emperor's letter, the Zen ceremony, the worship of Fenyin, and the construction of Taoist temples.

History, Geography and Nationalities in Southwest China: an Investigation Focusing on the Song Dynasty

Liu Fusheng

219K0

"History, Geography and Ethnicities of Southwest" compiled by Liu Fusheng China is a multi-ethnic country. In the southwest region of China (here mainly refers to the "Southwestern Yi" region described by Sima Qian), there are the largest number of ethnic minorities in the country. Historically, in addition to the four provinces and cities of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing, Tibet, western Guangxi, western Hunan, western Hubei and other places connected by mountains and rivers are also places where ethnic minorities live together, with close exchanges and flows between them. This means that the scope of the study of ethnic history in southwest China should be based on historical facts and should not be limited by the administrative divisions of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Chongqing. An ancient local history of Southwest China is almost always inseparable from "ethnicity." Therefore, to a large extent, a local history of Southwest China is a history of the development and evolution of relations between regional ethnic groups.
