China was ruled by dynasties (line of hereditary rulers) in earlier times. When a dynasty became weak, another man would take control of China and start a new dynasty, which is why there were so many different dynasties throughout China's history. The dynasties were headed by emperors who had absolute power. When the emperor died, his male heir would become the next emperor.
