  Emperor Xiaowu of Jin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
During his reign, Jin saw itself survive a major attempt by Former Qin to destroy it, but he would be the last Jin emperor to actually exercise imperial power, as his sons Emperor An and Emperor Gong would be controlled by regents and warlords.
A major issue for the Jin government early in Emperor Xiaowu's reign was the continued military pressure exerted by the powerful northern rival, Former Qin.
By 396, Emperor Xiaowu was spending so much of his time in drinking and women that he was not seeing his officials on important matters of state on a regular basis.
