The financial system evolved differently during the Six Dynasties period after the fall of the Han Empire. Different kingdoms had their own tax systems, with influences from previous dynasties. The power dynamics in Eastern Jin affected how finances were managed, with privileged families having more control. The Southern Dynasties' system had limited impact on the Taihe New System. The reform of the Taihe New System in Northern Zhou shaped the financial systems of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
