In аncient Chinа, the emperоr wаs cоnsidered the Sоn of Heaven and he was expected to act as the bridge between the earthly world and the divine realm. The Mandate of Heaven established that a ruler's authority was granted by a divine force (Heaven) and could be revoked if they became corrupt, unjust, or failed to govern effectively. An important element of the Mandate of Heaven was that although a ruler was given great power, he also had a moral obligation to use it for the good of his people. If a ruler did not do this, then his state would suffer terrible disasters and he would lose the right to govern. Since the Xia and Shang had lost their mandate through misrule and immoral conduct, the Zhou rulers who followed were aware that if they did not perform their role with propriety (morally) then they too could lose the right to rule and, inevitably, they would be conquered by a rival and more virtuous state.
