Eastern Han

Luoyang, Henan, China

The Eastern Han, also known as the Later Han, formally began on 5 August CE 25, when Liu Xiu became Emperor Guangwu of Han. During the widespread rebellion against Wang Mang, the state of Goguryeo was free to raid Han's Korean commanderies; Han did not reaffirm its control over the region until CE 30.
