 After [[Qin Shi Huang|Qin Shi Huang's]] death, there were revolts everywhere against his incompetent son and successor [[Xi Shi Huang]]. One of these rebellions started in 209 BC, under Liu Bang. After one of the first rebel generals, [[Chen Sheng]], was killed by one of his guards, Liu Bang became leader of his force. To rally the disparate forces against Qin, Liu Bang reinstated the Chu monarchy and installed a member of the deposed Chu royalty, [[Mi Xin]], as the Prince of Chu.

 In 207 BC, Liu Bang prepared an invasion of the Qin proper. He was unaware that [[Xiang Yu]] had already moved deep into Qin territory and was near its capital. When Liu Bang arrived at Hangu Pass, he found it guarded by Xiang Yu's forces. He seized the pass, then approached Xiang Yu's encampment. Enraged, Xiang Yu killed Liu Bang's favored advisor and burned the Qin palace. This started the war known as the [[Chu-Han Contention]].

-After Liu Bāng came into power, he re-modeled China based on Qín's example. He reduced taxes, developed agriculture and restricted spending. In response to what he saw as the decadence of Qín merchants, he restricted commerce using legal restrictions on merchants. He also made peace with the [[Xiongnu]]. [[Confucian]] scholars were welcomed into his government, while the harsh [[Legalist]] laws were lessened.
