Emperor Wucheng of Northern Qi

emperor of the Chinese dynasty Northern Qi
Years: 537 - 569

Emperor Wucheng of Northern Qi (537–569), personal name Gao Dan, nickname Buluoji, is an emperor of the Chinese dynasty Northern Qi.

During his reign, he devotes much of his time to feasting and pleasure-seeking, neglecting the affairs of the state and causing Northern Qi's political system to degrade quickly.

In 565, he passes the throne to his young son Gao Wei, taking the title Taishang Huang (retired emperor), but continues to make key decisions.

After his death in 569, the Northern Qi political system will grow even more corrupt and inefficient, leading to its fall in 577.
