Short Story Of Han's Naboo
“Quite a fine wine, your highness,” Han humbly agreed while accepting the proffered glass. He swirled the blue colored liquid around, inhaling the scene and further inspected it by lifting it to the light. “Thank you. ‘Appreciate the offer. Don’t think I can say no to choice wines either.” Han pitched his head in the direction of the Empress, smiling lightly as he boosted the glass in the air, a means to cheer. Though, he wasn’t sure if the traditions on Naboo were similar. Mid-rim planets were like night and day at times, when juxtaposed to the core words where Solo hailed from. All in all, he hoped it hadn’t been insulting to have done so. Though wary, he trusted the Empress enough to not poison him at random.

It was true he made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs, but it was a rather long and convoluted story with details he’d rather not delve into.

    China was unified in 221 B.C.E. for the first time in many centuries after decades of constant warfare (also called the “Warring States Period”) for the first time in centuries under the leadership of Qin (McKay, 178). The king of Qin did not feel that the title of king was grand enough and created the title “Emperor” (huangdi) and he called himself the First Emperor (Shihuangdi) in hopes of many successors (McKay, 178-179). The Qin state soon fell apart and led to the beginning of the Han Dynasty, which managed to take power and keep China unified until 220 C.E. The unification of China affected many parts of politics, culture, and social life during the Qin and Han Dynasties.…

Secondly, nomadic tribes invaded both Rome and China. These tribes broke into their respective empires and laid waste to the land. Yet differences exist between the collapse of the two empires. A large part of the collapse of Rome was due to inflation. The Han empire was not as affected by inflation as the Roman empire was.
