The Divine Dynasty Method was not a complete failure in kingdoms and empires. In fact, it had been successfully established in the first real imperial dynasty – the Da Xia Dynasty.
However, the price the Da Xia Dynasty was forced to pay to realize the Divine Dynasty was overwhelmingly high. So high, in fact, that the dynasty they had constructed couldn’t withstand the strain. With their foundation left heavily damaged, countless formidable figures were sacrificed and the Divine Dynasty was on the verge of collapsing.
To make the Da Xia Dynasty eternal, the last ruler of the dynasty chose to resort to sacrificial methods, mercilessly spilling the blood of foreign tribes and even of the human race.
Such brutal methods were essentially a violation of norms, thus triggering a resistance from countless forces who naturally did not wish to end up as sacrificial lambs.
During this time, Shang Country, which originally had the support of all forces, annihilated the Da Xia Divine Dynasty, establishing a new unified imperial court.
However, as time passed, the Great Shang, upon inheriting many of the Da Xia Dynasty’s assets, inevitably tread the same path, establishing the Great Shang Divine Dynasty at an enormous cost.
Even though the establishment of the Great Shang Divine Dynasty was costly, it outperformed the Da Xia Divine Dynasty, having fewer imperfections. After generations of commitment and sacrifice, the last emperor of the Great Shang almost fully restored it.
It’s important to remember that the establishment of the Great Shang Divine Dynasty was supported by all forces. Its perfection was thus a good thing for them all.
