The Han dynasty (Zhenian: 韓/한), often referred to as the Empire of Han, was an imperial dynasty that had most of modern-day mainland Zhenia under its control, prevailing from 838 to 1099. As the first empire to have unified mainland Zhenia since the collapse of the Zhen dynasty, the Han was preceded by the conflicts between the Wei and Kuan dynasties in mainland Zhenia and was succeeded by the Kharlin Empire of the Balakhaat people in the 11th century. Historians refer to the Han dynasty as one of the five golden ages of Zhenian history, with the cultural accomplishments of the Han thought to have constituted the basic cultural identity of Han Zhenians as opposed to Jin Zhenians in the Danguk Peninsula.
