Kingdom Of Zhao

King of Zhao was the title used by several rebellion leaders during the collapse of Qin Dynasty. By using the old Warring State name Zhao, they claimed to be the rightful ruler of old Zhao territory (now Shanxi province and South Hebei). Xie, King of Zhao was a descendant of old Zhao royal family. Kingdom of Zhao was one of the 18 Kingdoms. King of Zhao then became a noble title of Han Dynasty. Zhang Er, King Jing of Zhao kept this title when Han Dynasty was established in 202 BC for his loyalty to Emperor Gao of Han in Chu-Han Contention. In 199 BC, however, because of the rebellion of several other kings, Zhang Ao, King of Zhao, son of Zhang Er was demoted to marquess and this kingdom became extinct. King of Zhao was created again by Empress Dowsager L in 187 BC for Liu Qiang, King of Zhao. Liu Qiang was a faked son of Emperor Hui of Han. After Liu Qiang died in 183 BC without an heir, another faked son of Emperor Hui of Han, Liu Wu, King of Zhao succeeded. Liu Wu was killed in the coup to overthrown the L Family in 180 BC and this kingdom became extinct.
