The latest information on the history of the Xia Dynasty

Xia Dynasty (approximately 2050 BC - approximately 1600 BC)

The first dynasty recorded in Chinese history books. According to historical records, the Xia Dynasty was the first country in Chinese history established by Yu's son Qi, who abolished the traditional tribal "abdication" system, killed Yi and became king. Xia Yu's succession to his son replaced the previous abdication system, and the abdication system became a hereditary system for the throne. The Xia Dynasty has 13 generations and 16 kings. The monarchs of the Xia Dynasty were called Hou, Xiahou, and Xiahou clan in ancient books, and some were also called emperors. From the beginning to Jie Fan, there were thirteen generations, sixteen biographies, and a period of 472 years (one theory is 432 years), which is calculated by future generations. For example, counting the beginning of the Xia Dynasty from Xia Yu, from Yu to Lugui (Jie), there are fourteen dynasties and seventeen kings, and more than four hundred years have passed.

Qi, whose surname is Si and whose given name is Qi, is the son of Dayu. After the death of Dayu, Qi ascended the throne as the emperor, and Xia Qi ascended the throne. Afterwards, the leaders from all over the country held a banquet at Juntai. The Youhu family was very dissatisfied with Qi's approach of destroying the abdication system and refused to attend. Xia launched an army to conquer the Youhu clan and fought in Gan. The Youhu clan was defeated and destroyed. This victory initially consolidated the new regime. Established China's first slave country. In Qi's later years, his life became increasingly corrupt. He likes drinking, hunting, singing and dancing, but neglects government affairs.
