Wu Zetian - The Only Empress in Chinese History
Some
quick facts about this empress:
- Born in an official-eunuch family.
- Sent to the palace at the age of 14.

- A great political leader.
- Contributed to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty
from the Age of Zhenguan to the Age of Kaiyuan.
Who

Confucian historians. But she had widespread popular support. Why?
