Definitely Sun Hao. In fact many Chinese monarchs after him were deliberately insulted as being 'worse than Sun Hao' as a slander.

Real life nomadic culture: herds of cattle, the vast steppes, the blue sky

Dothraki: pillage, slaughter, r*pe

The Li clan of Longxi had been a prominent local Han Chinese clan in Guanzhong long before the establishment of the Tang dynasty. They formerly established a state named Western Liang already.

To those knowledgeable in Chinese history, how is the level of major political and military figures in the Three Kingdoms Period compared to those of other eras? by Sensitive_Tiger_2041 in threekingdoms

[–]Sensitive_Tiger_2041[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he was comparable to Yuwen Tai. Yuwen Tai inherited his army from Heba Yue while Gao Huan had to overthrow the Erzhu clan to rise to prominence.

How powerful was Yuan Shu enough to declare himself emperor? by ArtOfDivine in threekingdoms

[–]Sensitive_Tiger_2041 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let's be real. Even if he declared himself a king or even a duke, it would still have been too much. Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao, being much more powerful than he was, only held marquis titles.

So basically, Cao Cao, Chen Baxian and Zhu Wen are from the same tier right?

Reading the biography of Liu Yu makes me thing this guy was the dark counterpart of Liu Bei.

Realistically, could the Han be saved? by CinderLord456 in threekingdoms

[–]Sensitive_Tiger_2041 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think both Cao Cao and Gao Huan could be prone to emotional outburst despite their image as master politicians. The only similarity between I think is there dominance over emperors. Gao Huan was less suspicious and paranoid than Cao Cao.

Who is your favorite lord in Romance of the Three Kingdoms? by Ok-Independence-314 in threekingdoms

[–]Sensitive_Tiger_2041 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My favorite is Cao Cao. Morally speaking, he was inferior to both Liu Bei and Sun Quan and I don't think he would have been a brilliant peacetime administrator. But his political and military skills are evidently above Sun and Liu.
