Liu bang's personal profile

Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang was born in Li Zhongyang, Fengyi, Pei County (now Fengxian County, Jiangsu Province), and was called Pei Gong. After Qin died, he was named Hanwang. Later, he defeated Xiang Yu, the overlord of the western Chu Dynasty, in the Chu-Han War and became the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty (Western Han Dynasty). The name of the temple was changed to Taizu when Emperor Han Jing acceded to the throne.

Since Sima Qian in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the original temple was often called "Gaozu" and posthumous title was called Gaozu, so it was called Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Gaozu or Gaudi in history. He made a decisive contribution to the unification of Han nationality, China and the protection and development of Chinese culture.
