Extra credit-Examples of charismatic, traditional and rational-legal leaders

 Can you think of examples of charismatic, traditional and rational-legal leaders or governments in the history of your own country?


1) Summarize 


Emperor Taizong Li Shimin is one of the charismatic and traditional legal and government leaders in Chinese history.His reign laid the foundation for one of the most glorious periods in Chinese history.


During his presidency, Li Shimin vigorously developed cultural education and strengthened the construction of the legal system. At the same time, he carried out a number of political, economic and cultural reforms.The imperial examination system he carried out laid the foundation for China's imperial examination system for a thousand years, which was a very effective way to select officials in feudal society.


Under Li Shimin's rule, social order was well maintained, his legal system was just and reasonable, and the people's productive life was improved.He paid attention to protecting the people's livelihood, and made people's lives more stable and happy by implementing policies such as reducing taxes and taxes.He also formulated a number of agricultural, commercial and industrial policies that sustained the country's economic prosperity.


Lee Shimin also put a lot of effort into culture.He emphasized cultural construction, promoted Confucianism and Buddhism, promoted Chinese culture and raised the level of national culture.He has also built many famous buildings and sculptures, such as the "Big Wild Goose Pagoda" and the "Long Hate Song Monument", which is still a treasure trove of world culture.


Therefore, I think Li Shimin, the Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, is a charismatic and traditionally reasonable legal and government leader in Chinese history.

3) Discussion point
