The '''Sui Dynasty''' (隋朝 [[Hanyu Pinyin]]: Sui, [[Tongyong Pinyin]]: Suei, [[581]]-[[618]]) followed the [[Southern and Northern Dynasties]] and preceded the [[Tang Dynasty]] in [[China]]. It ended nearly four centuries of rule by warlords.

The Sui Dynasty has often been compared to the earlier [[Qin Dynasty]] in tenure and the ruthlessness of its accomplishments. The Sui dynasty's early demise was attributed to the government's tyrannical demands on the people, who bore the crushing burden of taxes and compulsory labor. These resources were overstrained in the completion of the [[Grand Canal of China|Grand Canal]]--a monumental engineering feat-- and in the undertaking of other construction projects, including the reconstruction of the [[Great Wall of China|Great Wall]]. Weakened by costly and disastrous military campaigns against [[Korea]] in the early seventh century, the dynasty disintegrated through a combination of popular revolts, disloyalty, and assassination.
