Xin Dynasty

Xin Dynasty appears on the map from 9 to 23. At its greatest recorded extent, in 9, it covered about 4.47 million km².

One of the realms of Han dynasty. After the Qin collapsed, Liu Bang, a commoner turned rebel leader, defeated his rivals and founded the Han dynasty in 202 BCE. The Han kept the Qin's centralised state but softened its harsh laws, and made Confucianism the official ideology, recruiting officials partly through examinations in the classics.
