Before emperors, palaces, and dynasties, China’s political story began with a flood.
Yu the Great is remembered not as a conqueror or a god-king, but as an engineer—a man who spent thirteen years controlling the waters, walking past his own home again and again without stopping. His dedication made him the ideal ruler in early Chinese legend.
But his greatest achievement may also have changed Chinese history forever.
When power passed to his son, the old tradition of choosing leaders by merit quietly gave way to hereditary rule. The hero who saved the land from chaos may have also created the first dynasty.
In this episode, we explore the story of Yu the Great—not just as a legend, but as a turning point. What if he had made a different choice? Would China’s political history have followed another path?
This is the story of the man who solved the flood… and accidentally invented the dynasty.
