Reading three kingdoms or watching the 1994 TV adaptation would fix at least 30% of the American male population.

Happy birthday to Chan Mou, born today in 1970. A Chinese comic artist from Hong Kong, his first comic is the self-written and self-produced Unhuman, based on the Three Kingdoms period, had won him numerous awards and recognitions. #ChanMou

Writing physical letters is pretty sweet, plus it allows the writer to exercise calligraphy, making the letter artistic and unique in a way. Definitely more colorful than writing an email or social media post. Zhuge Liang deserves both the temple and the praise.

I do not think I would want my resting place to become a tourist trap after I pass on! Funny pictures though, I am sure some time travelers would have a fun time showing these off to the real Cao Cao. Interesting find and thanks for sharing!

Wudang Feijun 无当飞军 (lit. "Unstoppable Flying Army"), are one of the elite armies of Shu-Han of the Three Kingdoms. They were comprised of warriors from Nanzhong and mentioned in Records in many battles, such as rescuing Ma Su in the battle of Jieting and defeating Zhang He of Cao-Wei. #history

In 1994 Three Kingdoms, the court robes (朝服) worn by the officials are based on actual uniform worn in the Han Dynasty.

Civil officials wore black & a hat called "Jinxian-guan"(进贤冠) while military is red & a "wuguan"(武冠) or "wubian"(武弁)-hat, sometimes decorated with two pheasant feathers. -> (1/7)

Liu Bei: I know well that you whip the soldiers after drinking. This will bring disaster, so be lenient from now on. Stop behaving that way.
Zhang Fei: I will keep this in mind.
Zhang Da & Fan Qiang: As you asked General Zhang, we searched all
across the land, but white cloth has been scarce. They might not be ready within three days.
Zhang Fei: I'm disappointed by this news, but I'm still thankful
that you tried your best to get the white cloth for me. I won't punish you, and I hope you'll get them soon.

Perhaps in a different timeline, Zhang Fei actually took Liu Bei's warning to heart and stops using the whip for every inconvenience.

Erbei, also known as Yushang 羽觞 appeared during the Warring States and became a very popular form of drinking vessel by the Han dynasty up to Tang.

Many tombs of the Han dynasty were discovered with sets of lacquered Erbei cups throughout.

The Gian Anh Geng Shrine located in the Kudee Jeen Community (Bangkok, Thailand).
Wooden relief masterpieces are exhibited just below the ceiling outside the shrine's entrance. It is believed that the images depict scenes from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Watched John Woo's RED CLIFF PART 1 & 2. A more romantic take on the Three Kingdoms where Wu and Shu aren't distrustful allies, but comrades united by Loyalty and Brotherhood. In doing so it sands down a lot of characters, but there's too little of Woo's trademark exaggerated melodrama to compensate

Cheng Yu, styled Zhongde, was an advisor under Cao Cao.

Cheng Yu, styled Zhongde, was an advisor under Cao Cao.

Cheng Yu 程昱, who allegedly killed his fellow villagers to procure meat for Cao Cao during a famine, was originally named Cheng Li 程立. Cao Cao added 日 on top of 立 to form 昱 because Cheng Yu once dreamed of grasping the sun 日 with his hands on top of Mount Tai. (《三國志注:程昱傳》)

Everyone: General Jiang Wei, we all think you have a strong chance of purging the court of corrupt ministers and rejuvenating the Han! Who would dare disobey you?
Jiang Wei: No, it is not worth spending our energy on petty squabbles.
Literally One Guy: General Jiang, let's take one hundred soldiers on a suicide mission against Wei!
Jiang Wei: Great idea!
