What do you think is the reason why Qin perished and Han flourished?

1 answer

Same: all strengthen centralization.

Resist foreign aggression.

Autocratic to culture.

Have great talent and general ideas.

Ending the division of China.

A series of safety measures have been implemented, which is beneficial to the development of production.

Different: Qin Shihuang was the founding emperor and Han Wudi was not cruel to the people.

Qin Shihuang respected the law and buried Confucianism, while Han Wudi respected Confucianism. Qin Shihuang advocated legalism, while Han Wudi respected Confucianism alone. Later, Confucianism became the orthodoxy of China feudal society. Qin Shihuang could not openly talk about employing people, and his thoughts were bound at that time; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used many talents.

Two answers

Qin Shihuang thought that he could rest easy by severely punishing the law, burning books and burying Confucianism, and collecting weapons from all over the world. On the contrary, it was because he was stupid and ignored the people that he lost people's hearts, that is, the world.

Both Emperor Gaozu and Liu Bang attached great importance to talents, and he also attached great importance to people's hearts. Generally speaking, the criminal law of the Han Dynasty was relatively lenient. Ti Ying saved his father and even abolished some cruel criminal laws, which is of great benefit to stabilizing society and promoting production. So the economy of the Han Dynasty developed rapidly.
