News Story

The Zhou Dynasty was at there highest peak when everything started to go downhill. The Zhou Kings wanted to try a new style of government so they assigned noblemen parts of the Zhou land. This type of governing worked well for over 700 years, but overtime the king became less powerful and the noblemen became more powerful. When they were defeated while fighting a rebellion the Zhou Dynasty had lost more power. They barely stayed in power for another 50 years, but they were finally overthrown by a man named Qin who was the ruler of the Qin Dynasty.
