The Three Kingdoms era refers to a historical period in China that lasted from 220~280 AD. It ended the Han Dynasty and separated the land into civil conflict. Out of the warring regional lords, three of them eventually gained enough power to claim themselves as the emperors of the land.
The kingdom of Shu Han, led by the Liu family (Liu Bei’s branch)
The kingdom of Cao Wei, led by the Cao family
The kingdom of Eastern Wu, led by the Sun family
Technically, neither of them ruled any sort of kingdom since their lands were actually individual empires. However, the term “kingdoms” has been popularized in several translations. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the concept was devised by Zhuge Liang on Liu Bei’s third visit but this is not the case in history. Historical records suggest that Zhou Yu and Lu Su devised the concept of two kingdoms.
