If Xiang Yu wins the Chu-Han War, what will happen to the world?
If Xiang Yu wins Liu Bang, he will definitely unify the world, because other forces cannot compete with Xiang Yu, unification is the trend of the times, and as for what kind of political system Xiang Yu implements after unifying the world, it depends on Xiang Yu's political vision.
Let's first look at what Xiang Yu did and what his political vision was when the Qin Dynasty fell.
Xiang Yu's political vision is not high, but it does not mean that Xiang Yu will not do the right thing, Xiang Yu became the leader of the anti-Qin rebel army in the world after the destruction of the Qin Dynasty by virtue of the great merits of destroying Qin, after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, the political power vacuum left behind will be redistributed, and Xiang Yu dominated the distribution of political power after the fall of Qin.
This is also Xiang Yu's division of the world, in the situation at that time, Xiang Yu's division of the world is not a problem, it should be the right choice, although Xiang Yu is strong, but its strength is not enough to swallow all other princes, nor is it enough to be the enemy of all the princes in the world, and the distribution of the world has become an urgent political event at present.
Xiang Yu's eighteen-way princes were originally independent armed forces, no one obeyed anyone, even if Xiang Yu did not divide these princes, they were still independent and autonomous, if they were not divided, the world would immediately fall back into the war for territory, the world would be in chaos again, Xiang Yu's division was not only a helpless choice under the current situation, but also the only feasible method at that time.
So after the destruction of Qin, can Xiang Yu be called emperor? Of course not, Xiang Yu hated everything in the Qin Dynasty, including the various political and legal systems of the Qin Dynasty, so after Xiang Yu entered Xianyang City, he did not want to unify the world with the momentum of the King's Landing, but instead carried out burning and looting with a vengeful attitude, not only burning Xianyang City, but also killing the surrendered Qin princes and infants, and looting Xianyang City, such an act was not the behavior of a qualified politician.
If Xiang Yu wins Liu Bang, will he establish a powerful dynasty? Will this dynasty be the Chu Dynasty?
This is not necessarily true, first of all, it depends on whether Xiang Yu implements the political system of sub-sealing or the county system, from the series of actions of Xiang Yu after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu is more inclined to the sub-feudal system, not only Xiang Yu is inclined to the sub-feudal system, at that time, in the anti-Qin rebel army, except for Liu Bang, almost all the forces tended to divide the feudal system.
Because the sub-feudal system is an ancient system, it has been implemented for thousands of years, and has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even during the Qin Dynasty period when Qin Shi Huang forcibly implemented the county system, there were not a few Qin Dynasty ministers who called for the restoration of the sub-feudal system, such as Qin Dynasty Doctor Chun Yuyue in the 34th year of Qin Shi Huang, that is, in 213 BC, 8 years after Qin Shi Huang unified the world, he was still talking to Qin Shi Huang to restore the sub-feudal system, which triggered a dispute between the sub-feudal system and the county system, and also directly led to the burning of books.
In addition, the rebels who rebelled and destroyed the Qin Dynasty were almost all the subjects of the original Six Eastern Kingdoms, and the Six Eastern Kingdoms originally opposed the county system of the Qin State and advocated the sub-feudal system, and these people later became the heroes of the destruction of the Qin Dynasty, and were divided into Eighteen Road Princes by Xiang Yu, and these people certainly could not agree to the county system.
Therefore, whether it was Xiang Yu's subjective will or the objective situation in society at that time, Xiang Yu could only choose the sub-feudal system, but it was impossible to choose the county system.
If Xiang Yu chooses the sub-feudal system, then what is the name of the dynasty established by Xiang Yu?
When Xiang Yu divided the world, he not only crowned himself as the king of Western Chu, but also made his nominal superior, King Huai of Chu, the Emperor of Yi, and the following subordinates were subordinate to the superiors, which was unique in Chinese history, because Xiang Yu was the largest prince with real power, and he was also divided into seals, so Xiang Yu made his Western Chu state the largest and the most fertile land.
But at the same time, Xiang Yu did something that made the people of the world indignant, that is, to kill the King of Chu Huai, the king of Chu Huai was the co-lord of the world, or Xiang Yu's superior, Xiang Yu killed the King of Chu Huai, which was equivalent to offending the Chu people, especially the Chu people who were still nostalgic for the Chu State during the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period, if Xiang Yu called the kingdom he established as the Chu State, then it would make himself politically unjust.
Kill the original King of Chu, and then use the title of King of Chu to establish a new dynasty, this matter will not be done in history, Xiang Yu's best way is to re-establish a new dynasty, and Xiang Yu's original country name is Western Chu State, if you defeat Liu Bang to unify the world, it is not Western Chu, but Chu, the name of Chu is not convenient to use, so Xiang Yu is likely to use "Lu" as the national name.
Because Xiang Yu was named "Duke of Lu" before the Battle of Julu, which was sealed by the King of Chu Huai at that time, until the end, the title of Duke of Lu was Xiang Yu's, even if it was defeated under the battle, it was also the most fierce resistance of the people of Ludi to Liu Bang, and Lu Di was the most loyal to Xiang Yu's area, and Xiang Yu would definitely use "Lu" to name the unified world and use the sub-feudal system to govern the world.
Similar to the history of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang's King of Han was sealed by Xiang Yu, and after Liu Bang unified the world, he took Han as the national name, and did not he also become the most powerful dynasty in Chinese history?
However, the "Lu" dynasty established by Xiang Yu, from the perspective of political structure, is still a continuation of the Spring and Autumn Warring States, even if Xiang Yu can deter the four sides with powerful force, but the heirs after Xiang Yu do not necessarily have this ability, it is likely to repeat the short life of the Qin Dynasty, and the world will be in chaos again, until a heroic and ambitious person once again unifies the world and governs the world with a correct political system, and the world will be stable.
Xiang Yu's political ability is not high, even if a unified dynasty is established, it may not be able to be strong, and it can win the world immediately, but it cannot rule the world immediately, Xiang Yu originally lacks the talent to govern the world, so the dynasty established will not last long, and Suili will repeat the mistakes of the Qin Dynasty.
