However, compared with Cao Wei and Sun Wu, it is so easy to choose a name, and it is much more difficult to choose a suitable name for Liu Bei. In 22 1 year BC, Liu Bei ascended the throne in Chengdu, with the title of Han. However, since the pre-Qin period, Liu Bei's Han Party has not been called Huaxia Xiong Xiong. If we call it a Han political party, it is obviously a slap in the face in the pre-Qin period. Therefore, this political party is called "West Shu" because its key ruling area is in Bashu area. This title is obviously not conducive to today's historical theory. After all, there are too many political parties established in Sichuan.
In the pre-Qin era, there will be an ancient Shu country near Chengdu; During the Sixteen Kingdoms period, Bashu also had the Li family. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, there were political parties established by Wang Jian, Meng Zhixiang and others in Shu. If it's called Liu Shu, the contrast will be weak. After all, people have always been called Han rather than Shu.
If we go back to the title of the Han Dynasty, we can find that political parties with the title of the Han Dynasty abound in history. Liu Bang established the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu established the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xuan changed the Han Dynasty to the Han Party, and Liu Pengzi founded the Han Party. During the Sixteen Kingdoms period, Liu Yuan, the Hun, established the regime of Han and Zhao, and the Miao people established the political party of Cheng and Han. The post-Han political party established by Liu Zhiyuan in the Five Dynasties, and the Northern Han political party established by Liu Chong, Liu? South Han political party was established; Even Chen Youliang and other political parties in the late Northern Wei Dynasty, the late Jin Dynasty and the late Yuan Dynasty all had the name of "Korea".
In the history of China, there are at least 10 political parties in the name of Han nationality, and there are as many as 8 political parties. Cao Shi established the state of Wei 1 piece, and Wu had no semicolon, so no one would argue with him for this name. But if Liu Bei's name is Liu Hanye, then Liu Bang, Liu Xiu, Liu Xuan, Liu Pengzi, Liu Yuan, Liu Zhiyuan and Liu Chong will all express their dissatisfaction. In addition, Liu Bang, Liu Xiu and Liu Bei are in the same strain. Before the lifting of the ban in the Han Dynasty, how could Liu Bei's Hanji Party still have the face to call Liu Han? Shu is not good, and Korea is not good. How about putting them together? In fact, there are still differences on this title.
Because of the Han Dynasty in the Sixteen Kingdoms period, the title was also called Han, and the key areas of governance were Bashu, and the capital was Chengdu. But it's still a little different. When establishing a political party, he was first called King of Chengdu, and then one year after the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), the title was called Cheng or Dade, meaning a political party centered on Chengdu. Later, Li Shou usurped the throne and the title was changed to "Han".
Well, at least Liu Bei's friends were determined to use "Han" as a title from the beginning, so Liu Bei's side won the priority title sponsorship, and Li Di's side was called Cheng Han, just like Liu Yuan's side.
In short, the principle of naming political parties in historical time is to be as targeted as possible without differences. Compared with Liu Shu and Han Ji, only Shu Han accords with this principle best. Later, this agreement was very common, and later it was called Shu Han. As we all know, oh, this political party was founded by Liu Bei. Therefore, Shu Han was fixed in this way.
