Encyclopedia > Han (state)

The Han (simplified Chinese: 韩, traditional Chinese: 韓) was a state during the Warring States Period in China.


Its territory directly blocked the passage of the state of Qin into the North China Plain, thus becoming a frequent traget of Qin's military operations. Although the Han had attempted several self strengthening reforms, notably under the famous Legalist Shen Buhai (simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese: 申不害), it would never overcome the Qin. In fact it was the first of the Six states to be conquered by Qin.


The invasion of Qin into Shangdang Commandery (simplified Chinese: 上党郡, traditional Chinese: 上黨郡) ushered in the bloodiest battle of the whole period, the Battle of Changping in 260 BC.
