The political reform in the Warring States period was very prosperous. What were the political reforms during the Warring States Period? During the Warring States Period, the frequency of political reform, reform and innovation was the highest in the history of China. In the development trend and fashion trend at that time, almost every vassal wanted to be strong and had to take the road of political reform and innovation. At the beginning, Wei became the only powerful country in turn according to Li's economic reform and Wuqi's military reform, which promoted the historical progress in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

After that, Qin began to carry out Shang Yang's political reform, which gradually distorted its declining trend and finally reached a state where it could compete with Wei and other emerging economies for hegemony. With the political reforms of Wei and Qin, Zhao, South Korea, Qi and other countries began to find their own ways of reform and innovation. Today, let's look at the political reform during the Warring States Period.

First of all, the official political reform of Qi, the military reform of Zhao and the official political reform of South Korea made the political rule of Qi more and more clean. Among the Seven Heroes in the Warring States Period, the social and economic development of Qi has always been in the forefront, making better use of its natural and economic development advantages in the East China Sea. In fact, if we simply look at the overall level of social stability, Qi should be the first.

Due to the tradition, during the period of King Wuling of Zhao, Zhao reformed riding and shooting, which made the military strength suddenly improve. From then on, Zhao became the main force of the six countries in Shandong against Qin, and also a more powerful enemy of Qin on the way eastward. Even after the confrontation in Changping, Zhao still had the strength of World War I against other countries.

Even after the capital of Zhao State was captured by Qin State, Zhao Wangjia still led the remnants of Zhao State, and established a generation state in the north to fight against Qin State again, which actually supported the next series of actions. This is all Zhao Wuling's reform of khufu riding and shooting. It is not difficult to see how much economic benefits Zhao's military reform has increased.

On the premise of Shang Yang's political reform, South Korea also carried out the Shen Buhai political reform for a period of time, and during the political reform, South Korea threatened the Central Plains with "the strength of South Korea" and showed signs of prosperity. However, Shen Buhai's reform was not a thorough and meticulous reform of the rule of law. Therefore, after the political reform, South Korea only prospered in stages, and the situation continued to decline after the death of Shen Buhai. Even so, during the period of political reform, South Korea still has a very strong comprehensive strength.

Second, during the Warring States period, almost all the seven heroes of the Warring States carried out political reforms. It is not difficult to see that almost all countries in the Seven Heroes of the Warring States chose political reform when they experienced the turning point of the development trend. Why did reform, reform and innovation become so fashionable in the Warring States Period? What is the reason? This paper focuses on analyzing this situation to see why reforming into a big country was the first choice of various vassal States during the Warring States period.

1. The political reforms in Wei and Qin made Wei the first country to carry out political reforms during the Warring States period, and also the first country to create huge benefits according to political reforms. Before the political reform, Wei's national strength was not strong and he faced various threats. After all, Wei was only a vassal state of Jin before the vassal Wang Jianli, and only cooperated with South Korea and Zhao to carve up the State of Jin.

In other words, vassal doctors are different from monarchies. Although Han, Zhao and Wei used to be in charge of most of the dominance of Jin State, the field of doctors and their network resources were far less than those of vassal States. This shows that the internal system of a vassal is also incomplete. Although Wei changed from a doctor to a vassal state, it does not mean that it has a rapidly developing vassal state management system in a short time.

2. Wei became a world power in the early Warring States period through political reform and Wuqi political reform. Therefore, when Wei Guogang was founded, Wei's survival was not optimistic, but he was a visionary saint. He first chose to carry out reform in Qin, but he was a famous legalist. His reform focuses on economic aspects and legal system construction, and Wei's development trend is systematic software.

Because the reform of the land system has won more rights and interests for ordinary people, it is easier to ensure their living conditions. Therefore, the main force of national production has been rapidly improved, and Wei's economic level has also become very profound. With the strong support from the economic level, the development trend in all aspects is also satisfactory, and the military has benefited the most.

Wei has more funds to recruit talented people, and then woo Wuqi, the eldest son of the army. In addition, Wu Qi announced a military reform and trained a Wei Wuzu for Wei after becoming a general of Wei. This Wei Wuzu is the key for Wei to criticize the situation in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, Wuqi led this army, which was really invincible and made great contributions to Wei's territory.

The economic benefits brought by this reform reached its peak, which made Wei surpass other countries and become the only powerful country in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, so that the development of any other era depends on Wei's face.

Third, learn from Wei's experience, start Shang Yang's political reform, and learn from Wei's rapid development experience. Also began to pay attention to the reform of Qin. Later, Qin Xiaogong, who took Shang Yang into the Qin State, paid attention to it, and carried out a thorough reform of law and discipline in Qin State, which not only abandoned the royal family's obstruction of the monarch's decision-making, but also made the farming system and military management system of Qin State more and more perfect, legally determined the importance of rules and restrained people's behavior.

The successful cases of these two countries are enough to prove that the reform and reform did have considerable benefits at that time, especially the experience of Qin. Before the political reform, Qin was actually the last country among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, and its overall strength was very weak, especially after Wei became powerful. Qin's strength was a vacuum pump in that time interval, and even South Korea, which had a small total area, could not beat it.

However, after a political reform, the specific situation is completely different, which is enough to arouse the admiration and envy of other countries. Because Qin's experience is an obvious success story, which can be learned by other countries.

Therefore, Qin and Wei are more important factors. It is precisely because of the success of these two countries' reforms that some princes will want to take the road that other countries have already implemented. After all, the theory that has experienced practical activities is efficient, and the road that our ancestors have already traveled is stronger.

Four. The requirements of the development of the times are different from those of all subsequent dynasties. Because the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were actually a turning point of social nature, before that, the ancient history of China was actually a slave society, and only after the establishment of the Qin Dynasty did it change from a slave society to a feudal society.

Therefore, the chaos in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is actually a whole process of exploring social forms. Social forms need to be upgraded, and there will inevitably be various practical activities. Since there must be independent innovation in the process of independent innovation, it is bound to be inseparable from political reform and innovation. Therefore, the political reform in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is the main manifestation of practical activities in the social form.

1. The reform of the rule of law in Qin is the embryonic form of feudal society. These reforms tell us that all kinds of rules and regulations in the ancient history of China were used in the whole society according to specific practical effects. For example, the reform of the rule of law in Qin is the embryonic form of a feudal society, in other words, the embryonic form of the autocratic monarchy. Since the gradual implementation of reform, the state of Qin has had the shadow of dictatorship and centralization.

In the political reform carried out by Shang Yang, the core part is actually relying on the centralization of the monarch, which is reflected in the political reform measures, that is, abandoning the harm of the royal family's monopoly strategy. Before the political reform, the royal family and doctors in China were in charge of some national resources. In this case, this kind of kingship will certainly cause the monarch to have scruples when making management decisions.

Therefore, the monarch's decision-making is not simply based on the state, and sometimes the royal family should also be considered. In other words, the power of the monarch is not concentrated. However, after Shang Yang's political reform, the royal camp was weakened a lot, and the national resources were tilted to the hands of ordinary people relative to the previous part.

2. Shang Yang's political reform was the beginning of monarchical centralization, and Shang Yang fought to enjoy farming. The current policy has brought into full play the effect that this part of resources can achieve, giving the country greater impetus for development. In this way, these ordinary people and soldiers who benefited from the political reform are directly responsible to the monarch, so that the monarch has confidence and may be able to master the vast majority of the country's dominance. So the damage to his management decisions will be much less than before.

Five, South Korea's SHEN WOO Sea has carried out the reform of "ruling the country by technology". For example, Shen Buhai's political reform, today's historians or experts and scholars also attributed Shen Buhai's political reform to political rule. The so-called "clever governance" means calculating the effect of national subjugation according to diplomatic negotiations or domestic political intrigue.

However, such a reform will have a drawback, that is, on the surface, "law" is the most basic and important foundation of this country, but in fact, the signing of laws is related to the monarch's hobbies. In other words, as long as it can be welcomed by the monarch, the established laws will certainly be beneficial to themselves.

In this way, it actually creates a shortcut, that is, no matter whether a person has real skills or not, as long as he is an online celebrity around your monarch, then his development future must be bright. Therefore, South Korea's political reform actually has high requirements for the monarch. That is to say, if the monarch is a virtuous monarch, can he be blinded by power and confused by the villains around him, and sign the domestic rule of law according to the actual requirements and social environment?

But the problem is that if the monarch is gullible, then these extremely flattering people will be very popular. In this case, who wants to study hard for ten years? Who will be willing to make great efforts to learn the real way of governing the country? All you have to do is to please the monarch according to flattery.

Therefore, there are actually intrigues and tactics on the Korean court. Later, after the death of Shen Buhai, the national situation in South Korea became more disordered and even more unstable than before the political reform. This is to tell you the fragility of the surgical political reform, which is also the reason why the surgical political reform in South Korea fell by the wayside.

Sixth, the reform, such as strict reform, is just a way of reform and innovation on the basis of the original basic political system abroad. It is said that the way of reform and innovation is to change the current policy in the face of people from different classes, just like today's company. The form is not to transform and upgrade this enterprise, but to give employees better treatment. In fact, it is a personal palliative.

Just like an enterprise can't innovate, change its production methods and development prospects, and wants to develop a trend film even when it already has smart wearable products, then even if the employee's salary is higher, the market competitiveness of this enterprise is probably not great, because the basic development direction is incorrect.

Therefore, this kind of vassal king's all-out reform and innovation is the practical activity of the development of the times From another perspective, we can regard it as an optional experiment of the times for our own development, and find a road more suitable for the development of the times through different reforms in different countries.

Seven. Conclusion To sum up, we can know that the prosperity of political reform in the Warring States period was often caused by many reasons. First, both Qin and Wei countries have successful cases of political reform in the early Warring States period, especially Qin, which gradually changed from a weak country to a strong country according to political reform. This is a fatal temptation, which is bound to attract many imitators. That's all. If you have any ideas, please leave a message in the comments section.
