Wang Dun



Wang Dun (王敦) (266-324), courtesy name Chuzhong (處仲), was a Jin Dynasty (265-420) general and later warlord with paramount authorities, having brought Emperor Yuan (Sima Rui) to submission with his military force. However, although he later appeared to intend to seize the Jin throne by force, he grew ill in 324 and died as his forces were being repelled by Emperor Ming.
