The Warring States period (Chinese:戰國時代; pinyin:Zhànguó shídài) was an era in ancient Chinese history following the Spring and Autumn period and concluding with the Qin wars of conquest that saw the annexation of all other contender states, which ultimately led to the Qin state's victory in 221 BC as the first unified Chinese empire known as the Qin dynasty. Although different scholars point toward different dates ranging from 481 BC to 403 BC as the true beginning of the Warring States, Sima Qian's choice of 475 BC is generally the most often cited and popularly accepted one. The Warring States era also overlaps with the second half of the Eastern Zhou dynasty, though the Chinese sovereign, known as the king of Zhou, ruled merely a figurehead and served as a backdrop against the machinations of the warring states.
The Sengoku period(戦国時代,Sengoku jidai, c. 1467 – c.1603) is a period in Japanesehistory marked by social upheaval, political intrigue and near-constant military conflict Japanese historians named after the otherwise unrelated Warring States period in China. It came to an end when all political power was unified under the Tokugawa shogunate.
During this period, although the Emperor of Japan was officially the ruler of his nation and every lord swore loyalty to him, he was largely a marginalised, ceremonial, and religious figure who delegated power to the Shogun, a noble who was roughly equivalent to a Generalissimo. In the years preceding this era the Shogunate gradually lost influence and control over the daimyo (local lords). Although the Ashikaga shogunate had retained the structure of the Kamakura shogunate and instituted a warrior government based on the same social economic rights and obligations established by the Hōjō with the Jōei Code in 1232, it failed to win the loyalty of many daimyo, especially those whose domains were far from the capital, Heian-kyō. Many of these Lords began to fight uncontrollably with each other for control over land and influence over the shogunate. As trade with China grew, the economy developed, and the use of money became widespread as markets and commercial cities appeared. This, combined with developments in agriculture and small-scale trading, led to the desire for greater local autonomy throughout all levels of the social hierarchy. As early as the beginning of the 15th century, the suffering caused by earthquakes and famines often served to trigger armed uprisings by farmers weary of debt and taxes.
Warring States is an original novel by Mags L Halliday set in the Faction Paradox universe. It has been described as 'another resounding success for the Faction Paradox line'
Plot introduction
Cousin Octavia of Faction Paradox has come to Peking during the Boxer Rebellion in search of an artifact she believes can bestow immortality. For Liu Hui Ying, the artifact is a symbol that will rally the Han. But in this dangerous time, more than each other stands in the way of either obtaining the jade casket.

🇨🇳 The Warring States of China
This video presents the Warring States Period of China, every year, from the collapse of the Western Zhou dynasty in 771 BCE to the reunification of China by Qin in 221 BCE (okay, I lied, I actually did skip some years in the beginning... :P).
Also, yeah... it does include the Spring and Autumn Period as well, but "Spring and Autumn and the Warring States Periods of China" sounds super unattractive (that's a legitimate reason).

Was China's First Emperor Really Driven Mad With Power?
Qin Shi Huangdi. He is the man who united, and indeed gave China its name. He conquered six powerful warring states and, in 221 BC, declared himself emperor of all China.
During his reign, he introduced sweeping reforms, built a vast network of roads and connected the Great Wall of China which to this day stretches over 2400 kilometers. His legacy not only includes the Great Wall, but also his astonishing tomb, guarded by the famed Terracotta Army constructed almost 2,200 years ago.

📜 Warring States Japan: Sengoku Jidai - Part 1 - Extra History
The Onin War tore Japan apart but also kicked off the Sengoku Jidai or Warring States Period that's a seminal part of Japanese history. The power of the shogun dissolved and regional clan leaders or daimyo fought for control of the country. In the mid-16th century, near Kyoto, a clan called the Matsudaira found itself pinched between two great rivals: the Oda and the Imagawa. Abducted as a hostage by the Oda, the scion of the Matsudaira clan (the young Tokugawa Ieyasu) grew up to fight alongside of the Imagawa when he was released. Their combined forces threatened to destroy the entire Oda clan, but Oda Nobunaga had a different idea. They clashed at the Battle of Okehazama.

Cheers and welcome to the newest series on the channel, “China’s Warring States Series”. In Part 1 we will take a look at the State of Jin near the end of the Spring and Autumn period. These are the events that became the catalyst for the Warring States period to come.
Chong’er who would become one of Jin’s most effective rulers, albeit one of the shortest…His father Duke Xian favors the offspring of a captured concubine named Li Ji above his previous children born of willing but separate concubines. Not content to merely displace his children Duke Xian wants to end their lives and devises scenarios to achieve this end but his children are cunning and manage to evade the troops and traps he puts in their path.
Chonger after spending 19 years in Exile evading a father and siblings hell bent on ending his life takes the reins of power and does more than any previous Jin ruler to correct the mistakes of the past. The reforms he enacts are pervasive and encompass both the military and non-military institutions.

This video presents the Warring States Period of China, every year, from the collapse of the Western Zhou dynasty in 771 BCE to the reunification of China by Qin in 221 BCE (okay, I lied, I actually did skip some years in the beginning... :P).
Also, yeah... it does include the Spring and Autumn Period as well, but "Spring and Autumn and the Warring States Periods of China" sounds super unattractive (that's a legitimate reason).

The Warring States Period was the second half of the Eastern Zhou period of Chinese history, a time of disunity and uncertainty throughout China. During this period, the survivors of the Spring and Autumn period fought one another in order to unify China. In the end, the Qin state emerged victorious under the leadership of Qin Shi Huang, who became the first emperor of China.
Qin Shi Huangdi. He is the man who united, and indeed gave China its name. He conquered six powerful warring states and, in 221 BC, declared himself emperor of all China.
During his reign, he introduced sweeping reforms, built a vast network of roads and connected the Great Wall of China which to this day stretches over 2400 kilometers. His legacy not only includes the Great Wall, but also his astonishing tomb, guarded by the famed Terracotta Army constructed almost 2,200 years ago.
This major drama-documentary offers unprecedented access to new excavations at the major sites, and through major dramatic reconstruction narrates how Ying Zheng became the king of Qin state at 13 and the first Chinese Emperor. It reveals the personality and motivations of this remarkable but still unknown leader.

The Warring States period (Chinese:戰國時代; pinyin:Zhànguó shídài) was an era in ancient Chinese history following the Spring and Autumn period and concluding with the Qin wars of conquest that saw the annexation of all other contender states, which ultimately led to the Qin state's victory in 221 BC as the first unified Chinese empire known as the Qin dynasty. Although different scholars point toward different dates ranging from 481 BC to 403 BC as the true beginning of the Warring States, Sima Qian's choice of 475 BC is generally the most often cited and popularly accepted one. The Warring States era also overlaps with the second half of the Eastern Zhou dynasty, though the Chinese sovereign, known as the king of Zhou, ruled merely a figurehead and served as a backdrop against the machinations of the warring states.
