Han Deep Dive

Steve, Jude, Gongjin and Drew unite to discuss what had gone wrong with the Han. As the novel descends into the civil war, we look at what had gone wrong in the longer term for the Han that had led to the kind of revolts that opens the novel. Finances, foreign policy, instability at court, decisions made in the last years of peace, while Gongjin talks of the impact of a changing climate adding strain upon the Han.

Jude's first time as editing so any feedback on how he can improve is welcome. Transcript
