Liang (

City of Hancheng in Shaanxi.[2][3]

In 703 BC, the rulers of the five states of Western Guo, Rui, Xun (荀國) and Jia (賈國), including the State of Liang, suppressed Duke Wu of Quwo using armed force.[4]

In 654 BC, Prince Yiwu from the State of Jin escaped to Liang.[a][5] The ruler of Liang (梁伯) betrothed his daughter Liang Ying (梁嬴) to Prince Yiwu.[1]

In 642 BC, the ruler of Liang wanted to build a new capital but it was seized by the State of Qin after it was completed.[6]

In 641 BC, Liang was conquered by the State of Qin. According to the Zuo Zhuan, the Liang people were not able to bear the work given to them by the ruler of Liang so that the State of Qin easily conquered Liang.[7]
