Han administrative reforms
The Han administrative reforms were efforts during the Han Dynasty to improve governance by reorganizing government structures and enhancing efficiency. They standardized bureaucratic practices, reduced corruption, and emphasized merit-based appointments through exams and recommendations. These reforms also expanded central authority, improved tax collection, and established clearer roles for officials, helping to create a more organized and effective government system. This made administration more consistent, fair, and capable of managing the empire’s vast territories and diverse population.
