The Mighty Tang: Founding the Empire

In 618 AD, the realm descended into chaos, and the rule of the Great Sui Dynasty was already teetering on the brink of collapse, like the setting sun. Li Yuan and his sons, born into the aristocratic Guanlong faction, seized their moment amid the turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty, rose above their rivals, and established the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty rose slowly, like a blazing red sun.
