Han Wu Ti was the most illustrious emperor of the
Han dynasty, bringing Han China to a peak of power, wealth, and cultural
development. Even today the ethnic Chinese call themselves
"Han," as distinct from the Manchus and other minorities in China.
He ruled for over five decades, a period that saw great territorial expansion
and a burst of economic and cultural activity. His armies pushed north and
west into central Asia, east to Korea, and south to the coast. Trade with
the states of western Asia grew, silk became a major export, and inventors found
ways to make paper and porcelain. During his reign Confucianism became the
state's orthodox philosophy; arts flourished, and the first systematic history
of China was produced. Source:
