The History of China

by Eric Andresen

Season 1

062 - The End

The Han is finally ending, once and for all. And with that, I have told the story I set out to tell

061 - The Yellow Turban Rebellion

After literally years, we have reached the penultimate episode for the Han Dynasty. The yellow turban rebellion is here, and with it, the end of the Han. Things are not as simple as they may seem, though, and what truly brings it all down is what we have spent the last 10 episodes dealing with. The Han dug a grave, but finally...they are laying in it

060 - Power to the People

Rome meets China (officially), and the Eunuchs take over. That's one heck of a sentence, but the people have finally had enough. It seems they (rightfully) have decided the emperor has lost the Mandate of Heaven

059 - Peak Liang Ji

Like Darth Vader finally being put into his suit, Liang Ji has reached his final form. His scheming worked, and it was continuing to work...all at the expense of honest government. Will he be stopped? Can he be stopped? Be sure to rate the show 5 stars and give it a follow! www.DormRoomHistory.com/thehistoryofchina

058 - Liang Ji and the Child Emperors

Happy Holidays to all, but it won't be happy if you are in Liang J's way. One of the best villains we have seen so far is here. All that, and more

057 - The End is Nigh

The show is back! For a long time, mind you - something the Eastern Han can't say...

056 - Eunuchs and Corruption

An Emperor named An, and one who is remembered for corruption and vice at that. Oh, and the guy that invented paper is back. Listen now for all that, and more.

055 - Rebellions & Rome

Emperor He is a nice guy...that's great and all, but does that make him a competent head of state? No, no it does not. But also, Gan Ying ends up in Parthia and learns about Da Qin. Da Qin? Oh, that is what the Han called Rome.

054 - Coups, Historians, & Rome

Somethings things slip away without you realizing, and that is what is happening here to the Eastern Han. But it is not all bad, buckle up as we deal with a Godfather style takeover, meet the man behind the "Book of Han", and oh yah, Rome.

053 - The Golden Age of the Eastern Han

The foundation was laid, now it is time to reap those rewards. But when times are good, court dramas come back...oh, and the person who invents paper shows up. All that and more on this episode. Listen now!
