The state of Wei, (魏, Wèi), is one of the seven Warring States of China. It is located in the central plains, posessing borders with all the other states except the northeastern Yan. Their capital city is Dairyou.

History[]

Wei...for generations they have continued to block the path to the east of Qin.

Ei Sei on Wei talking to Shou Bun Kun.

Wei is one of the successor states of the former state of Jin. After a brutal civil, the state of Jin, which has been a powerful nation for a long time and a formidable enemy of the Qin, divided into three states : Han, Zhao, and Wei.

In the following decades, Wei managed to establish itself as a major player in the geopolitical state of China. By having the particularity of sharing borders only with other Warring States, Wei has developped a long history of warfare and intense rivalries with many of them.

It had recently lost the region of Hanyou to Zhao who conquered it sometimes close to Ren Pa's defection to Wei.

Story[]

Go Kei, a Great General led a Wei army to counter an invading Qin force led by Duke Hyou and both forces met on the Dakan Plains where Go Kei was killed. Its king granted asylum to Renpa after he left the state of Zhao due to issues between him and the Zhao king, Toujou.

The Wei region of Sanyou is invaded by the Qin who conquer three of its cities (Kourou, Kyochu, and Kyosai). Upon news of this, the king sends Renpa with an army to deal with the invaders. But Ren Pa was defeated by Mougo in the campaign of Sanyou.

Culture[]

Not much is known about the culture of Wei as of now, but as they are surrounded by enemy states, they are a state with a powerful military, especially their long and practiced use of War Chariots.
