Is it difficult to achieve a reign of 230 years in the Great Sheng Dynasty?
This isn't easy to answer.
If we look at the dynasty's longevity, it almost reached 300 years.
A reign of 230 years can only be considered a passing grade.
Moreover, throughout its history, the Great Sheng Dynasty had its fair share of foolish and mediocre emperors and didn't lack disruptive shenanigans.
So as long as one avoids mistakes, achieving a reign of 230 years doesn't seem like an exceptionally outrageous task.
But what about a horizontal comparison?
Let's not mention those special dynasties from Ancient Times. Since the era of feudalism began, no centralized imperial dynasty in history has ever had a lifespan exceeding 300 years.
Even reaching 200 years is a rarity.
Many dynasties only needed a few decades from their establishment to their demise.
