This mind map outlines the significant events of the Sui Dynasty in Ancient China, marking a pivotal era in Chinese history. Established in A.D. 581 by Yang Jian, the Sui Dynasty succeeded in unifying China by conquering the Chen Dynasty in 589 AD, ending centuries of division. Emperor Yang of Sui's reign saw the construction of Dongdu and the Grand Canal. However, internal strife and failed military campaigns, such as the attempted conquest of Goguryeo, led to uprisings and eventual downfall. By 618 AD, the dynasty crumbled with the rise of the Tang Dynasty, marking the end of the Sui era.
