dynastic cycle (): is an important political theory in the history of china/chinese history. according to this theory, each dynasty in chinese history, rises to a political, cultural, and economic peak and then, because of moral corruption, declines, loses the mandate of heaven, and falls, only to be replaced by a new dynasty. the cycle then repeats under a surface pattern of repetitive motifs.

the system was intended to foster the development of land and to ensure that no agricultural land lay neglected. this prevented aristocrats from developing large power bases by monopolizing the fields, and allowed the common people to take part of the land and ensure their livelihood. from these, the government was able to develop a tax base and to slow the accumulation of land by vast, untaxable estates. this was also used by the tang dynasties to break the dynastic cycle. the dynastic cycle was the idea that all dynasties will come to an end and this was going to stop it by having the people receive the land from the government; this makes them feel like the government gave them something even though it never left.
