  Evolution Zhengshuo
  Shang Xia December to positive, Zhou Xia November to positive, Qin Xia October to be positive. Liu Han Dynasty clothing color Zhengshuo not attack Qin.
  XIA after switching from the Han Dynasty, the later emperors generally nianhao not correct moon, only Wu Zetian, Taiping and other corrections moon. Here is that a lot of literature that is used in today Lunar lunar calendar, this statement is not accurate, in fact, just today, follows the lunar XIA, but not with the summer moon, specific to the size of the moon, leap month, etc. calculation is very different with the Xia Dynasty.
  Summer in the dawn of the new moon, as the moon providers to cock, week to midnight for the moon. It reflects the timing of progress since the dawn of time by the weather, the seasons big cock is not accurate, but by midnight astronomical observations can be accurately determined.
  Impact on future generations
  Although the Han dynasty little correction after the new moon, but nianhao, awarded calendar reflects the emperor remains an important means of imperial power. Formerly known as the almanac almanac, ephemeris will be awarded by Gein by the emperor. Until modern times, calendar Zhengshuo, still regarded as a sign of the regime. For example, the Qing Dynasty, the revolutionary party run by newspapers to the Yellow Emperor era to show clear does not recognize the legitimacy of the use is not clear in our rules. Even today, people still have to do the overseas anti-communist Christian era, to emphasize not recognize the legitimacy of the People's Republic. Again, Sun Yat-sen, Mao Zedong declared the founding date are using the Gregorian calendar and the Republic / Christian era, signifying change will correct the moon towards the concept is still popular.
