Background / History

Ancient Origins

Su Chen explains Huaxia’s name through the Rectification of the Zuo Commentary to the Spring and Autumn Annals: hua refers to the beauty of attire, while xia refers to the greatness of ritual propriety. He further connects Xia to Huaxia’s first dynasty, its people, the Central Plains, and its origins 6.

Dayu spent thirteen years controlling floods, delineated the Nine Provinces, united their tribes, and established the Xia dynasty with its capital at Yangcheng. Grateful tribes contributed metal to forge the Nine Provinces Cauldron, whose map-like inscriptions symbolized the realm’s unity. Su Chen later places Huaxia’s earlier origins among the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors 6 8.

Lost History and the Awakening Crisis

Huaxia’s surviving records and relics contained no trace of dynasties before the Qing. Generations of historians failed to recover evidence of its older civilization, leaving the population vulnerable to foreign claims that Huaxia was merely another country’s remnant territory 1.

Although Huaxia already possessed substantial conventional national strength, the emergence of ancestor symbols changed the balance of power. Its experts could neither identify nor activate its symbol, even after reciting the names of known Qing figures. Neighboring countries gained Awakened while Huaxia endured growing panic, defections, and foreign Awakened acting without restraint within its borders 1 3 7.

Restoration of Ancestral Recognition

Su Chen’s activation of the cauldron overturns the belief that Huaxia has only three hundred years of history. Dayu personally identifies himself as Huaxia’s ancestor and intervenes when Jin Junxian attempts to seize the symbol 5 6 7.

Dayu initially questions whether his descendants are prospering and whether floods still threaten them. Su Chen answers by showing their disaster relief, mutual assistance, engineering achievements, and military development. Dayu ultimately acknowledges the descendants as worthy successors and entrusts Su Chen with his inheritance 9 11 12 13 14.

War with Haidong

Huaxia delays mass awakenings while considering screening, international alarm, and the possibility of an economic boycott. Its authorities instead publish accounts of Kim Chunchu’s historical submission to Huaxia. Jin Dachang privately knows these accounts are true but uses the controversy to demand Su Chen’s submission and threaten war 21 23 24.

Zhu Yuanzheng’s mobilization draws more than a hundred million willing volunteers. Huaxia selects 1,003,756 descendants of Dayu from active-duty personnel, veterans, and civilians for the coastal defense. They face an invasion led by Jin Dachang and 130,000 Haidong Awakened 27.

The battle ends in Huaxia’s victory, the deaths of Jin Dachang and Haidong’s invading Awakened, and the shattering of Kim Chunchu’s jade stele. Countries that had avoided supporting Huaxia during the crisis subsequently seek closer ties. Sakura, Kangaroo, and Eagle Sauce’s inheritors refrain from challenging it 25 37 38.

The Imperial Seal Dispute

A newly fallen bronze mirror initially appears to be Huaxia’s second symbol. Su Chen identifies its fragments as Sakura’s Yata Mirror, and footage reveals that it struck Huaxia’s actual symbol into the eastern ocean. Sakura then announces a symbol discovered in the same waters 41 42.

Su Chen identifies that artifact as the Imperial Seal of the First Emperor of Qin. Rather than launch an invasion that could unite other countries against Huaxia, he visits Sakura alone as Huaxia’s inheritor. His summoning of Ying Zheng prompts Sakura to accuse him of stealing its symbol, while foreign voices demand a boycott of Huaxia. The conflict remains unresolved in the provided passages 45 48 49 50.

Geography & Landmarks

National Strength

Ancestral Bloodlines

Huaxia’s long history and intermarriage give its population extensive ancestral connections 20.

• Dayu has three hundred million descendants within Huaxia alone 19.
• Associated surnames include Xia, Xiahou, Zeng, Deng, Yue, Bao, Lou, Chao, Ou, and Ouyang 20.
• Su Chen suggests that overlapping ancestry could allow successive bloodline awakenings; this remains a possibility rather than a demonstrated national capability 20.
• Awakened power is not treated as proof of superior human worth. Su Chen explicitly rejects ranking Huaxia’s people by bloodline nobility 34.

Awakening Safeguards

Su Chen’s absolute inheritance allows Huaxia to regulate who receives Dayu’s power 39.

• Candidates undergo screening; criminal records and habitual bullying or aggression disqualify them 39.
• Su Chen can reclaim awakened power at any time 39.
• Zhu Yuanzheng selects upright, patriotic Awakened from the military to support the developing system 39.

Conventional Military

Huaxia retains modern armed forces alongside its ancestral power 13.

• Equipment shown to Dayu includes the J-20 fighter, Type 055 and Type 052D destroyers, Type 054A vessels, and a Type 093 attack nuclear submarine 13.
• Zhu Yuanzheng is a renowned general appointed supreme commander of the initial ancestor-symbol crisis 3.
• At the time of Haidong’s invasion, Huaxia has not fought a war for more than thirty years 30.

Ancestral Artifacts

• Nine Provinces Cauldron — Huaxia’s first activated symbol and a representation of national unity. It houses Dayu’s remnant soul and becomes a battlefield weapon under Su Chen’s command. Dayu’s remnant returns to it and cannot appear again after his initial manifestation 6 31 37.
• Imperial Seal — Created by the First Emperor of Qin and associated with Huaxia’s rightful imperial throne and supreme authority. Sakura calls it the Eight-Character Divine Seal and claims ownership because it was found in its waters 45 49.
• Mountain-Splitting Axe — Dayu’s divine artifact, used by Su Chen during the coastal battle. Its ancient use in opening Dragon Gate is connected to flood control and the development of the Central Plains 35.

Culture & Society

• Mutual aid: Su Chen highlights donations, volunteers traveling to disaster zones, and firefighter Liu Zejun’s sacrifice as examples of Huaxia’s shared spirit 12.
• Disaster relief: The floods of 1998 and the devastating earthquake of 2008 illustrate soldiers and civilians protecting one another. The latter causes nearly 100,000 deaths or disappearances 11.
• Filial piety: Forgetting their ancestors is a source of deep anxiety for Huaxia’s people until Dayu acknowledges them 14.
• Historical education: After the victory, the Great Xia dynasty is added to school textbooks, teaching children the origin of the Xia in Huaxia 38.
• National unity: Su Chen warns against foreign aggression and internal division; Zhu Yuanzheng also identifies cultural invasion and ideological assimilation as threats 13.

Relationships

• Su Chen — National inheritor and hero whose historical knowledge restores Huaxia’s ancestral identity and enables its bloodline awakenings 14 19 38.
• Li Shuhua — Head of Huaxia’s historical institute; supports Su Chen’s initial attempt to activate the symbol and advocates recovering the Imperial Seal 3 12 45.
• Haidong Country — Neighbor and historical rival that claims Huaxia’s heritage, attempts to seize its cauldron, and launches the defeated coastal invasion. Its own banned records preserve evidence of its former vassal relationship with Huaxia 2 8 24 37.
• Sakura Country — Former invader and continuing adversary whose hereditary ruling clans fear Huaxia’s rise. Its possession of the Imperial Seal becomes the next major dispute 6 42 45 49.
• Other countries — Many withhold support during Haidong’s ultimatum, then offer congratulations and delegations after Huaxia demonstrates its strength 25 38.
