Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Liang Dynasty was the third of the Southern dynasties in China and was followed by the Chen Dynasty. The Western Liang Dynasty, with its capital established at Jiangling in 555 by Emperor Xuan, a grandson of Liang's founder Emperor Wu, claimed to be the legitimate successor of the Liang Dynasty; it was subservient to the successive Western Wei Dynasty, Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Sui Dynasty, and was abolished by Emperor Wen of Sui in 587.
