121 BC: Encyclopedia II - Xiongnu - Northern and southern Xiongnu

The Xiongnu's new power was met with a policy of appeasement by Emperor Guangwu. At the height of his power, Huduershi even compared himself to his illustrious ancestor, Modu. Due to growing regionalism among the Xiongnu, however, Huduershi was never able to establish unquestioned authority. When he designated his son as heir apparent (in contravention of the principle of fraternal succession established by Huhanye), Bi, the Rizhu king of the right, refused t ...

121 BC: Encyclopedia II - Allobroges - Relations with Romans

Allobroges were famous for their warriors, wealth and import of wheat. They controlled most of the Rhone river valley and various important mountain passes to Italy, e.g. Via Agrippa. In 123 BC Allobroges gave shelter to king Tuto-Motulus of the Salluvii tribe Rome had conquered and refused to hand him over. Rome declared war and moved against them. In August 8, 121 BC legions of Quintus Fabius Maximus defeated them and forced them to submit; Maximus earned a moniker Allobrogicus for this feat. In 63 BC, when Catiline in ...

121 BC: Encyclopedia II - Volcae - Etymology

Some believe that the name Volcae is related in some manner to the English word "folk", derived from Proto-Germanic *fulka "people" or "host". This is dubious, since it would imply a loan from Germanic to Celtic. Another posibility would be derivation from PIE ulkwos "wolf" (c.f. Russian volk). This is also unlikely, since the expected P-Celtic form of the word would be volp-. A more likely suggestion is a derivation from PIE *velk, a word for water or dampness (Old Irish failc "bat ...

121 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Wu of Han - Further territorial expansion old age and paranoia

Starting about 113 BC, Emperor Wu appeared to begin to display further signs of abusing his power. He began to incessantly tour the commanderies, initially nearby Chang'an, but later extending to much farther places, worshipping the various gods on the way, perhaps again in the search of immortality. He also had a succession of magicians whom he honored with great things, even, in one case, making one a marquess and marrying a daughter to him. (That magician, after he was exposed to be a fraud, however, was executed.) Emperor Wu's expenditur ...

121 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Wu of Han - The Crown Prince Ju revolt

In 94 BC, Emperor Wu's youngest son Liu Fuling was born to a favorite concubine of his, Consort Zhao. Emperor Wu was ecstatic in having a child at his advanced age (62), and because Consort Zhao purportedly had a pregnancy that lasted 14 months long -- the same length as the mythical Emperor Yao -- he named Consort Zhao's palace gate "Gate of Yao's Mother." This led to speculations that he, due to his favor for Consort Zhao and Prince Fuling, wanted to make Prince Fuling crown prince instead. While there was no evidence that he actually intended to do anything of the such, over the next few years, there b ...

121 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Wu of Han - Maturity in reign and territorial expansion

The peace with Xiongnu would not last, however, because Emperor Wu was not satisfied with what he saw as appeasement of the Xiongnu. In 133 BC, at the suggestion of Wang Hui (王恢), the minister of vassal affairs, he had his generals set a trap for the Xiongnu chanyu Junchen (軍臣). Under the plan, a power local gentleman, Nie Yi (聶壹) from Mayi (馬邑, in modern Shuozhou, Shanxi) falsely claimed to offer Mayi to Xiongnu after killing the county magistrate to try to entice Chanyu Junchen into advancing on Mayi, while Han force ...

121 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Wu of Han - Early reign: the young years

After Emperor Wu ascended the throne, his grandmother Empress Dowager Dou became grand empress dowager, and his mother Empress Wang became empress dowager. He created his beloved wife (and cousin) Chen Jiao empress. In 140 BC, Emperor Wu conducted an imperial examination of over 100 young scholars recommended by officials. This event would prove to have a major impact on Chinese history, as it was the official start of the establishment of Confucianism as official imperial doctrine. This came about because a young Confucian scholar, D ...
