Who are the three emperors and five emperors in history?

The Three Emperors and Five Emperors are the collective names of historical mythical figures "Huang San" and "Five Emperors". The original meaning of Huang San refers to ancient Huang San (the emperor's, the monarch's and the emperor's), and Fuxi and others were added as "Huang San". In the original sense, the Five Emperors refer to the five ancient gods (Di Qing in the east, Chi Di in the south, Huangdi in the center, Baidi in the west and Hei Di in the north), and later five ancient tribal leaders, such as Xuanyuan and Shennong, were added as the Five Emperors.
