姚興在位22年，勤於政事，治國安民。他即位不久就下令釋放因戰亂而自賣為奴婢的平民，使很多人獲得自由，從事農業生産；重視展經濟，興修水利，關心農事；提倡佛教和儒學，建寺院，邀請龜茲高僧鳩摩羅什來長安講學譯經，支持法顯赴印度等國取經訪問，轟動一時，遂使長安成為當時全國的佛教中心。同時姚興重視文化教育事業，興辦學校，集中在長安求學的學生有一萬數人，設律學（司法學校）於長安，招收各郡縣官吏就學，學業優秀者派遣去任獄訟官：在官吏中提倡廉政嚴懲貪官。由於實行這些政治、經濟、文教等方面的有效措施，遂使關中經濟取得快速的恢和展，使秦國力日益強盛。隨着國的富強，姚興在軍事上也取得輝煌戰果，他先消滅前秦（苻登）、西秦（乞伏國仁）、涼（呂光）的勢力，使西方安寧；同時東與北魏、東晉抗衡。弘始元年（公元399年）率兵攻打東晉，一舉攻陷洛陽，迫使晉軍南撤，晉之淮、漢以北紛紛降秦，使統治疆域迅速擴大，西至河西走廊，東至徐州，幾乎控受不了整個黃河、淮河、漢水流域。因連年出，國力不足，增收雜稅，引起階級矛盾日趨激化，又加姚興諸子不和，太子姚泓懦弱，愛子姚弼驕橫，遂使政局不穩。於公元416年姚弼謀反欲篡位，被殺。同年姚興病死，謚文桓皇帝，廟號高祖，墓曰偶陵。姚興死，皇太子姚泓繼帝位，於公元417年為東晉劉裕所滅。秦亡。

歷史評價：
姚興降號天王：晉朝的四世紀末，當時北方處於戰亂中，燕的慕容垂滅亡西燕，統一黃河以北，西秦滅前秦，與秦、涼成為關中三強。晉朝作為正統的地位在此時雖然恢受不了，但是依然控着黃河秦嶺以南地區，秦、燕依然稱帝，對抗晉朝的正統地位。姚興在394年（秦皇初元年）即位稱帝，而北方的代國此時正逐步強大，《魏書》記載此時拓跋珪改稱魏王，而《宋書》記載是404年桓玄篡晉時的天賜元年，代國改稱魏國。在姚興稱帝時，代國是擁護晉朝正統地位，與燕爆戰爭，而關中的三強之間也相互戰爭，397年，涼分裂，段業建立北涼，以又分裂出西涼，其統治者李暠、沮渠蒙遜等都以晉朝為正朔。而擁護晉朝的拓跋儀被封為衛王，攻占燕的中山、鄴城，控受不了河北，代遷都平城。燕退往竜城，分裂出南燕。代國的太尉穆崇親自指揮援助晉朝，共同對抗秦，在擁護晉朝的勢力增強的條件下，姚興在399年正式降號為天王，這是姚興為改善同晉朝的關係，籠絡晉人取的措施。次年，燕的慕容盛也降號天王。姚興停止攻打晉朝轉而把主力用於關中，攻打同樣稱秦王的西秦，而晉朝因國內豪門士族與中小地主階級之間的矛盾，沒有北伐。姚興在降號為天王，減少同晉朝的直接戰爭，且利用晉朝國內矛盾，擴充勢力。姚興降號擁護晉朝的李暠、沮渠蒙遜都與他友好通使，他還加封兩人官職，但是比兩人自立的職務低，估計沒有被接受。姚興同晉朝改善關係也與代國攻占河北，對秦增加威脅有關，使姚興被迫把主力轉河北和關中地區。義熙元年桓玄篡晉儘管被平定，但是毛璩遇害，益州被譙縱占領，晉朝姚興求和，姚興當面表面反面方面正面迎面滿面封面地面路面世面平面斜面前面下面四面十面一面洗心革面方方面面面貌面容面色面目面面俱到同意，故意歸還南鄉等地作為劉裕功勞，提高劉的威望，分化晉朝。同時卻趁機占領晉朝漢中，降服仇池，沒有誠心同晉朝議和。涼被姚興滅亡，關中的各國與秦是時好時壞。義熙二年晉朝收漢中，重新恢與仇池、吐渾、西涼、北涼的聯繫。三年晉朝和秦關係惡化，秦派兵支持譙縱的割，以牽晉朝，四年晉朝武陵王去世，秦支持的劉裕執政，開始專權，攻打南燕，姚興感到劉裕好戰是威脅，轉而支持被劉裕迫害逃亡的司馬氏，儘管不積極，比如司馬國藩渡淮攻打陵，統領的部隊僅數百，但是姚氏從此與司馬氏友好。
