Zhou Dynasty (周 1122 BC - 256 BC) (Wade-Giles Chou Dynasty) followed the Shang Dynasty and preceded the Qin Dynasty in China.
After You Wang had replaced his queen with the concubine, he was then overflown by the joint force of the queen's father, who was a powerful noble, and the barbarians.
The queen's son Ping Wang became the puppet king and the capital of Zhou was moved to a city in the east.

  Wang Mang - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wang Man died early, while Wang Mang was young, before Empress Wang became empress dowager when her son Emperor Cheng took the throne, and unlike most of his brothers, did not have the opportunity to become a marquess.
Wang, having thus consolidated his power, began to further build up his personality cult, encouraging others to submit false prophecies in which he was mentioned as the second coming of Ji Dan, the Duke of Zhou and the regent for King Cheng of Zhou, or other great mythical personalities.
Wang's armies defeated Zhai and Liu's armies in winter 7, and Zhai was captured and executed by drawing and quartering.

 Han Dynasty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After 200 years, Han rule was interrupted briefly during AD 9–24 by Wang Mang, a reformer and a member of the landholding families.
Wang Mang, believing the Liu family had lost the Mandate of Heaven, took power and turned the clock back with vigorous monetary and land reforms, which damaged the economy even further.
A distant relative of Liu royalty, Liu Xiu, prevailed after a number of agrarian rebellions overthrew Wang Mang's Xing Dynasty, and he reestablished the Han Dynasty (commonly referred to as the Eastern Han Dynasty, as his capital was at Luoyang, east of the old Han Dynasty capital at Chang'an).

Zhou set up a trap where he pretended to be punishing his subordinate Huang Gai, and Huang Gai pretended to be in such fear that he was willing to surrender to Cao.
Zhou was suspicious of Liu Bei intentions, however, and suggested to Sun Quan that Liu Bei be seized and put under house arrest (albeit be very well-treated) and his forces be merged into Sun Quan's; Sun Quan, believing that Liu Bei's forces would rebel if he did that, declined.
Sun Quan did agree to Zhou Yu's plans to consider attacking Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu (who controlled the modern southern Shaanxi) to try to take over their territories, but after Zhou Yu died in 210, the plans were abandoned.

 China's Success in the Middle East - Middle East Quarterly - December 1997
The Soviet military force comprised the biggest threat to China; in response, Mao and Zhou Enlai proposed the uniting of all forces to fight Soviet hegemony, a policy that influenced their outlook on the Middle East.
It is for this reason that the five major arms sellers in the Middle East (who happen, incidentally, also to be the five permanent members of the Security Council) gathered in Paris in 1991 for an international conference on arms sales control in the Middle East.
China's official stance on this issue rests on three principles: arms control in the Middle East should be comprehensive, balanced, and effective; its support for setting up a weapons-of-mass-destructive free area there; and arms control goes together with the peace process to achieve the final aim of peace.

Undoubtedly, "the King of Zhou" here has to be Literate King (Wen-Wang); therefore, "the Temple of Zhou" meant "the Temple of Literate King", in which the tablets of the other Zhou kings were also placed for the worshipping purpose.
Archeological surveys have shown that the Western Zhou ruin is under the old city of Han and Wei, and is unrelated to the royal city of the latter days, which was mentioned in the book of Guoyu.
This explains why the east wall and the west wall of Luoyang of Han and Wei consisted of three segments: the middle segment established as early as the Western Zhou, the northern segment during the Spring-and-Autumn Period, and the southern segment during Qin.

This is not to say that the Early Zhou was unimportant in the genesis of acupuncture or Chinese medicine in general.
In -771 the feudal arrangement of the Early Zhou was disrupted when a foreign alliance backfired, forcing the Zhou capital further east and thus giving rise to a new period known as the Middle Zhou (-772 to -480).
While the Middle Zhou is noted for the birth of Confucianism, the Late Zhou (-480 to -221) is accredited with the rise of Daoism.

Another significant aspect of the suicide is that we do not see it happen, which both hides the violence that may alert an audience to the dual nature of Sufen's victimisation, and increases the audience complicity in the silence of her death and life.
