Emperor Guangwu and the Restoration of Han
After Wang Mang's disastrous Xin Dynasty and the chaos of the Red Eyebrows, a distant Han prince named Liu Xiu rose to reunite China. This episode follows his journey from peasant fields to the Battle of Kunyang, where a miraculous storm turned the tide, and his founding of the Eastern Han in Luoyang. We explore his policies of land reform, tax cuts, and Confucian revival that stabilized the empire for two centuries. Learn how Guangwu balanced ruthless military campaigns with benevolent rule, earning the title 'Restorer of the Han.' We also touch on the controversy of Empress Guo and the enduring legacy of the Eastern Han's first emperor.
