Studying the case of collapse of the Qin Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty donates kindheartedness and justice to its people after establishing, as to settle the public feeling. Politically, the system of enfeoffment serves as protective surroundings of the royalty. Economically, It supportes the operation of a free market governing by non-interference.

The economy in the day recovers and develops gradually in an environment of ’governing by non-interference’, and there appears the reign of the empire Wen and Jing. But at the same time, varieties of problems have arisen, such as constant invasion of Hun, the expansion of vassal king, powerful clans bullying people, lack of identical ideology.
