Late Ming: The Rise of an Empire

There is no way out if there is no rebellion in the late Ming Dynasty. If you don't die as a powerful minister, your children will be expelled and exterminated.

The problem in the late Ming Dynasty was not about technology, but about government management. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were big gun makers like Bi Maokang, cannon makers like Sun Yuanhua and Li Zhizao, and science tycoons like Xu Guangqi and Song Yingxing. It can be said that there were a lot of top scientific and technological talents. However, these technological talents have not been put to good use. Military talents such as Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, Zhou Yuji, Cao Cao and others faced the same problem. In an environment characterized by corruption from top to bottom, chaotic government management, and collusion among civilian officials to betray the country, no matter how good or many talents are, they cannot save the Ming Dynasty. Only by strengthening the management of the court, rebuilding the credibility of the court, severely punishing corruption and betrayal of the country, and not being eager for quick success and instant gain, Ming Dynasty still has a good chance of turning around. There are some opinions on the Internet that the North Korea was unlucky and encountered the Little Ice Age. In fact, this idea is not wrong at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that this is not the main problem and contradiction. Xiao Glacier was not just for the Ming Dynasty, but for all countries and regions at that time. To blame the demise of an empire on the climate is cowardly and afraid to face failure. The main problem is just one: the government is out of control and corrupt. The main responsible persons are Ming Sizong Zhu Youjian and the civil servant group at that time.
