The Kingdom of Huang was an ancient country that was first created during the Xia dynasty (2070–1600 BC) and was restored again a second time in 891 BC during the time of the Zhou dynasty until the middle Spring and Autumn period, when it was annexed by the Kingdom of Chu in 648 BC. There were at least several dozen known monarchs in total of the Kingdom of Huang during the 1,400 years that this country existed.[1]
