A Research On The System Of Qin's Monarch Inherits

The monarch of the Qin succession system, discussed the past, it was mainly concentrated in two areas. First, from the Qin descent perspective, Although the majority of the sovereign heritage as"son to the father","brothers inherited"phenomenon has occurred from time to time; second, second, previous scholars are often based on little information, and would consider Qin either from the"Xi Rong"culture, and either"Shang"ethnic origin, by the"Zhou"less impact on the culture. In sum, we hold that there is no strict system of trueborn and primogeniture in the country, or succession of monarchs that the Qin is no fixed system.This paper first describes the inherited situation of Qin's every monarch, found to remove the succession due to various reasons for the"change cases", as almost all the other"son to the father". There are only a few"brothers Inheritance"cases in the"Routine", the literature does not indicate why, and also as a particularly short time. From this point of view,"his son inheritance"should be Qin sovereign succession system. Although most of the sovereign status is not recorded, but the factors of"descent"and"age"from the founding to the end of Qin.There are three aspects that indicates the system of"trueborn and primogeniture"in Qin sovereign succession. First, cultural background. Documents show Qin nation from the East, but the Qin's cultural sites to demonstrate its basic culture from the"Zhou"cultural. Second, Prince system. Prince advance from the early Shang Dynasty began to gradually advanced fixed. In the period of Zhou Cheng Wang the Prince system began to form and was adopted by other leud, to the"Spring and Autumn"it became a common phenomenon. The identity of Prince indicates clearly the system of monarch inherit, since the Prince system established, following the normal position, Prince as the eldest son of the first wife is no doubt, therefore, the phenomenon of Prince of Qin said the emergence of the system of"trueborn and primogeniture". Third, the phenomenon of"不享国"which related to Prince. Prince once dead in advance, then who has the preferential right of Successors may also show the characteristics of the system of succession. In the four phenomenon of reseted Prince in Qin's history, both of the two"不享国"was inherited the position of monarch by the former Prince's son. This is actually confirmed the status of"first wife eldest son"once again.With the same period compared to other countries, the monarch succession of Qin embodies both at the same stage of development, viz. the inherited system of"trueborn and primogeniture"in the countries of the universal application, also because Qin is the only one state which experienced the historical transformation integrallty from the Feodal State to the Empire State, the ruler on the succession showed the characteristics corresponding to the cause.
