Features: The footsteps of the Chinese Empire were heavy and sluggish, and it fell into a strange cycle: from the clarity of the early dynasty to the corruption of the late period, then overthrown by the unbearable pressure of peasant uprisings, and a new dynasty repeated this cycle. Our empire, like a youthful and spirited teenager, gradually aged into a frail elder in this cycle, and its massive body collapsed into the dust. In the history of the empire, we see astonishing similarities: the inheritance of systems, the stereotypical portrayal of figures. Every Chinese person, when looking back at the past through this series of books, will be filled with cheers, amazement, anger, and even heart-wrenching sorrow for our history. The target readers of this series are mainly readers with a medium level of education, that is, it serves readers who have a certain foundation in historical knowledge and cultural literacy.
