Emperor Wu of Han Net Worth

. Emperor Wu of Han, born in Chang'an, China, was the seventh emperor of the Han dynasty and ruled from 141-87 BC.

He was successful in re-conquering northern and central Korea, and brought Southern China and northern and central Vietnam under his control.

Wudi was also known for introducing religious and cultural changes into the society, such as making Confucianism the state religion and his obsession with finding the path to immortality.

Biography/Timeline

2012

Emperor Wu carried out an invasion of the Korean Peninsula and established the Commandery of Canghai, but abandoned it in 126 BC. Some of the military colonies established at that time survived into the 4th century, leaving behind various particularly well-preserved funerary artefacts.

2013

The failure of the Mayi operation prompted Emperor Wu to switch the Han army's doctrine from the traditionally more defensive chariot–infantry warfare to a highly mobile and offensive cavalry-against-cavalry warfare. At the same time, he expanded and trained officers from his royal guards.

2014

In 104 BC, Emperor Wu built the luxurious Jianzhang Palace (建章宮) — a massive structure that was intended to make him closer to the gods. He later resided at that palace exclusively, rather than the traditional Weiyang Palace, which Xiao He had built during the reign of Emperor Gao.
