Han was a minor Chinese state under the Zhou dynasty. It was centered on present-day Hancheng in Shaanxi and Hejin in Shanxi. The state was created for a son—known only as the "Marquess of Han" (韓侯)—of the Wu King of Zhou[1] in the 11th century BC. The rulers held the rank of marquess and ancestral name of Ji (姬).[2] Han was conquered by the Jin and enfeoffed to Wuzi of Han,[2] a descendant of the Marquis Mu of Jin, in the 8th century BC.
