Wang Mang and the Han Interregnum

7 min•10 juli 2026

In 9 CE, Wang Mang, a Confucian scholar-reformer, usurped the Han throne and founded the Xin Dynasty, plunging the empire into chaos. This episode explores his rise, his radical reforms (including land redistribution and currency overhaul), and the rebellion that restored the Han. We discuss the Red Eyebrows uprising, the Battle of Kunyang, and how Liu Xiu emerged as Emperor Guangwu, reuniting China. The episode also examines the interplay of Confucian idealism, realpolitik, and popular revolt.
