After Shang Tang established the Kingdom, he learned the profound lesson from the fall of Xia Dynasty, abolished the tyranny of oppressing the people cruelly in Xia Jie's time, and adopted the policy of "ruling the people with Leniency". As a result, the internal contradictions of Shang Kingdom were relatively eased, the political situation tended to be stable, and the national strength became stronger and stronger. He carried out a series of expeditions against many countries around him, won a series of victories and became a powerful country. According to documents, the Shang Dynasty moved its capital five times. Archaeologists have found important remains such as large palace base, tombs and workshops in these four sites, such as the No. 1 palace in the middle of Erlitou site, covering an area of 10000 square meters. In the late Shang Dynasty, domestic conflicts were very acute, and the four princes rebelled. In the face of this situation, Emperor Xin (Zhou) of the Shang Dynasty did not want to change, did not listen to the advice of loyalty, and blindly pursued the extravagant life, which further intensified the domestic contradictions. At the same time, he engaged in militarism and mobilized a large army to fight against Dongyi, which increased the burden of the people and made the domestic forces empty. The army of King Wu of Zhou attacked the pastoral areas in the suburbs of Shang Dynasty, but the army of King Wu of Shang Dynasty had no fighting spirit and "turned around in vain" to open the way for the army of King Wu. Emperor Xin saw that the situation had gone, fled to Lutai, took out the precious pearl and burned himself to death. The Shang Dynasty perished.
