In my opinion, we should not judge a historical figure by the morality or our personal values. There is no right or wrong in history, only truth or lies. Although one person can be very powerful, he or she alone cannot change the trend of history. The Wei Kingdom collapsed 45 years after Caocao died. Caocao kept the words that he would never take the place of Han Emperor, but his son did so soon after Caocao died. Heroes are important in history, but they are not all the history. History has its own principle that cannot be change by human’s willing. In this sense, it is not the royal court of Qing Dynasty that should be responsible for the collapse of the China in the 19th century, but the whole Chinese. It is not the Westerners that are evil, but that history principles are cruel. Backwardness leaves you vulnerable to attack. Although history is cruel, it is its cruelty that pushes human forward.
