Historical figures mentioned in my article 23

Han Hu韩虎​​, historically known as ​​"Viscount Kang of Han" (韩康子)​​, was the ​​tenth patriarch​​ of the ​​Han clan​​ in the State of ​​Jin​​ during the ​​Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods​​.

In ​​453 BC​​, ​​Han Hu (Viscount Kang of Han)​​, along with ​​Zhao Wuxu (Viscount Xiang of Zhao赵襄子)​​ and ​​Wei Ju魏驹 (Viscount Huan of Wei魏桓子)​​, defeated ​​Zhi Yao智瑶 (Viscount Xiang of Zhi智襄子)​​ and ​​partitioned his territories​​, leaving only ​​two cities​​ under the nominal rule of the ​​Duke of Jin​​. Their domains ​​expanded significantly​​, surpassing those of traditional feudal lords.

After ​​Han Hu's death​​, his grandson ​​Han Qia韩虔 (Marquis Jing of Han韩景侯)​​ formalized the ​​partition of Jin​​ with the ​​Zhao and Wei clans​​, establishing an ​​independent Han state​​ and relocating its capital to ​​Yangdi阳翟​​ (modern ​​Yu County, Henan​​). In ​​403 BC​​, ​​King of Zhou​​ was compelled to recognize ​​Han Qian​​ as a ​​hereditary lord​​.
