Yang Dynasty

 * Government: Celestial Monarchy
 * Emperor: Liu (186 AD-203 AD), Baixi (203-211 AD)
 * Demographics (China-wide):
 * Population: 73,900,000 (while the population dwindled largely because of the plague which dropped to approximately 75 million, its populations went down further with warfare, without it, it would be 100 million)
 * Xi'an: 580,000
 * Luoyang: 320,000
 * Beiking: 230,000
 * Chengdu: 470,000
 * Linking: 380,000
 * Haiyan: 240,000
 * Baoan: 340,000
 * Other cities and settlements: 25,600,000
 * Ethnic Groups: 55% Chinese (regardless of ethnic groups like Han, the Chinese ethnic group as a united entity overall has declined with the fall of China), 13% Daevite (this is largely due to northern raiders arriving and assimilating children into their culture), 25% Southeast Asians and Southern Chinese (the southern Chinese had mixed together with them ever since the Yang Dynasty invaded Au Lac), 7% other
 * Religion: 72% Chinese religions (this also includes Confucianism, some Daevite raiders, especially leaders have adopted this religion for the sake of keeping control of their Chinese subjects), 12% Daevite Blood Gods (lower Daevite warrior classes and people still practice them, Xiongnu predominantly had this religion), 10% Buddhist (this has largely being embraced by the south), 6% Other
 * Events:
 * Raiders and the Southern Affluence (early 3rd century AD): The Yang Dynasty's fall has started to become apparent. Raiders from the north continue to pour into a post-plague stricken China, with Xiongnu and three Daevite tribes seemingly heading south (similar to the barbarians during the fall of Rome in OTL) and plundering more villages and towns, to the point that some of the Daevite generals have managed to obtain ways of ruling over their enslaved Chinese populace. They do it by fear and killed off Chinese men if they don't bow down. Many of the leaders, except the Gordesh tribe which would eventually become Sinicised as the Gao Kingdom have adopted Confucianism and Chinese folk religion in order to bridge ties with their subjects. This led to the fall of China's north. Meanwhile in the south, the Southerners (which were basically Southeast Asians) were having some form of turbulence, despite the plague spreading to Southeast Asia, it managed to survive and recover unlike China which its administration failed to cover the plague of Hainan itself. This allowed them to quickly make trade deals with warlords of the south, particularly in the Jiang Dynasty in order to keep themselves 'safe' from the barbarians in the north. In essence, the north and the south are being gripped by control and influence (culturally and partially religiously) with China as it was known prior to the plague of Hainan was dead.
 * Siege of Xi'an (209-211 AD): Another factor of the downfall of Yang was the siege of Xi'an. A Daevite tribe under the name Khusol, coming from the Xiongnu Confederation has set upon plundering the mighty city and the emperor on 202 AD. One notable leader of the Khusol tribe, Yatha Cisma, who is according to tales and written records was a fierce female warrior. She would be a general that would be rememebred for few generations to come, although she would not be the de facto leader of the soon-to-be Weng Dynasty. Through the use of siege weapons and mangonels that were introduced into the north sometime in the 2nd century AD by curious Yang traders who sought peaceful trade (which backfired many times), Xi'an would fall at the autumn of 211 AD with the palace being stormed by 40 Daevite warriors carrying swords rather than archers.
 * The End of an Imperial Dynasty (211 AD): Baixi, the last Emperor of the Yang Dynasty would abdicate the imperial throne, making way for a raider named Chipak to become the so-called Emperor of the Weng Dynasty, dropping the Khusol tribal name. Chipak (Sinicised as Chi Peng) would only control Xi'an and surrounding areas despite this epic defeat for the Chinese, whilst the rest of the Yang Dynasty continued to crumble. Between 211-217 AD, what would be known as the "Fall Period of Yang" (not to be confused with autumn itself) is observed. Warlords and generals secede from the Yang Dynasty, where message failed to unite the Chinese under Chi Peng since roads were torn apart by raiders and that decentralised ruling has made it easy for warlords and governors to claim rulership and break away from the Emperor's rule. By the winter of 217 AD, the Yang Dynasty in its name would be de jure dissolved.
 * Aftermath (225 AD onward): What remains of the Yang Dynasty and China itself is divided up to Daevites and Southerners. China under Qin Shi Huang and then the Yang Dynasty has been seen as an experiment gone wrong. Kingdoms will remain at war for perhaps centuries to come, through indirect ways - there is no reunification this time, unless one side could inevitably win. Zhang Dynasty would remain purely Chinese initially but that would soon change in some way. They would try to reunite China itself if they could within 75 years, but as decades come by, with more Daevites being freely able to settle further south and perhaps prolonged cultural affluence in the south, it seemed that China will no longer stand by their own cultural identity as independent anymore. "It is the end of China's history."
 * Disclaimer: Even though I don't actually have control over any countries, these are my thorough analysis of ending the Yang Dynasty. Hopefully it passes, if not I'm going to need a slight revision.
