	Zhou Dynasty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the Chinese historical tradition, the rulers of the Zhou displaced the Shang and legitimized their rule by invoking the Mandate of Heaven, the notion that the ruler (the "Son of Heaven") governed by divine right (granted by the Supreme God of Heaven) but that his dethronement would prove that he had lost the mandate.
		In the West, the Zhou period is often described as feudal because the Zhou's early rule invites comparison with medieval rule in Europe.
		The queen's son Ji Yijiu was proclaimed the new king by the nobles from the states of Zheng, Lü, Qin and the Marquess of Shen.

	Laozi
		He lived in Zhou for a long time; witnessing the decline of Zhou, he departed.” When he reached the northwest border then separating China from the outside world, Yin Xi, the official in charge of the border pass, asked that he put his thoughts to writing.
		The Zhou government had been in decline; warfare among the “feudal” states intensified both in scale and frequency from the fourth century onward.
		This is not surprising given the Zhou context and given that the production of and access to written documents were generally the preserve of the ruling class in ancient China.
