This is definitely wrong.
This is definitely wrong. Liu Bei was a descendant of the Han Dynasty which had already gone bust, not the other way round. He was not able to revive the empIre. The 3 kingdoms struggled with each other for a few generations.

The definitive geographical words for China are Zhongyuan (central plains between Yellow and Yangtze rivers) and Jiangnan (south of Yangtze). The Jiangnan areas were more fertile, arable and contested and had always been contested by force or coercion. It was only finally confirmed Chinese without dispute by the Tang dynasty era. That's why southerners refer to themselves as Tang ren. The northern plains and western highlands were unwanted and were places to chase unwanted tribes and fugitives from warring states or losing tribes to. Those evolved into Qiangs, Huns, Khitans, Mongolians and Manchurians.
Was 司马懿 Sima Yi any better ? I don't know. But, it was said that 商汤 Shang who had displaced Xia which made Xia people to flee into the northern desert to become Xiong Nu. But, I still think that our first Chinese writing is from Shang and not Xia or the Hmong.
