Talking about the Spring and Autumn Period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (in simplified Chinese 東周春秋時期), the Jin Man Noble was one of the top leaders that must need to be mentioned.

Jin Man Noble got the power from his father, who was quite a bad noble. However, Jin Man Noble was definitely one of the most hard-working nobles in Jin’s history. He strived to reform the political system of the little Jin country and he tried to establish a lot of posts to balance the power of different officials so that no one could abuse their powers because other officials would be able to stop any harmful actions.

After several years, great achievement is seen so that the little country was very prosperous and Jin Man Noble’s prestige was very high among all the nobles in that period.

On the other hand, in the western part of China, the Qin group rose in power also. Situating in the western part of China, the Qin group was able to develop without much disturbance because it was not a piece of fertile land in China at that time. As a result, not many countries would want to launch a war against the Qin group. After decades of development, the Qin group was able to conquer a lot of other little land and grew in power. Therefore, the leader of the Qin group wanted to try to challenge the position of the Jin leader. However, of course, Jin group at that time was really very strong and Qin was not able to get victory. Fortunately, the leaders of Qin group did not feel disappointed and they tried to reform in many ways and finally, the got the final victory.

Of course, in the central parts of the China, besides the Jin group, the Cho group also grew in power after Jin started to decline. During these times, wars existed from time to time and many people suffered a lot from these wars so that they expected a very strong leader to unify the whole country.
