With Roman conquest of Parthia in 920(167) no Roman envoys to the Han were made to get around the Parthian middlemen, Central Asia remained more obscure, but the relevance of this Roman ignorance is thought to be little. The respective reactions to these increases in wealth were different, however. The Han became more decadent while the silk road kingdoms began eras of consolidation and internal development.

  • With Roman conquest of Parthia in 920(167) no Roman envoys to the Han were made to get around the Parthian middlemen, Central Asia remained more obscure, but the relevance of this Roman ignorance is thought to be little. The respective reactions to these increases in wealth were different, however. The Han became more decadent while the silk road kingdoms began eras of consolidation and internal development. For the Han, they became plagued by internal strife and intrigue while the coffers still filled, and they turned to bribing rather than defeating their exterior enemies, strengthening in particular the Xiongnu in the north. The noble families members became numerous, and as they sat on their duffs becoming mad, they produced volumes of poetry, treatises, and religious spin-offs or inventions; leading to religious turmoil when the scripts reached the masses. The armed forces became as corrupt and self-indulgent as the government. The increasing occurrence of assassination led to the growth of the eunuch harems, who in turn sought to increase their own influence and by the late 930’s(184+) had de-facto control of the Han Dynasty and drastically siphoned off funds previously being spent on the people.
