	The Three August Ones and the Five Emperors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Three August Ones and Five Emperors (Chinese: 三皇五帝; pinyin: sānhuáng wǔdì; Wade-Giles: san-huang wu-ti) were mythological rulers of China during the period from 2500 BC to 2205 BC, which is the time preceding the Xia dynasty.
		The Three August Ones, sometimes known as the Three Sovereigns, were said to be god-kings or demigods who used their magical powers to improve the lives of their people.
		The first historical emperor of China was Qin Shi Huang, who coined a new term for "emperor" (huangdi) by combining the titles of "august one" (huang) and "sage-king" (di).
