The tripartite confrontation between the Three Kingdoms refers to the situation in which Wei, Han and Wu were divided into three parts in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Since 220 AD, three countries, namely Cao Wei, Han Ji and Soochow, have been established in Chinese history. It is divided into three parts, each dominating party, the overlord party and the opposing party. This kind of political situation is called "the three countries stand in the balance".

During the tripartite confrontation between Wei, Shu and Wu, although the war of annexation continued, the rulers of the three countries paid more attention to the development of social production and the stability of social order in order to consolidate and develop their power. Compared with the chaotic situation of many warlords in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it is much better. In fact, the tripartite confrontation between the three countries is a transitional stage of China's gradual reunification after more than ten years of destruction. The rulers of the Three Kingdoms adopted some political and economic measures in their own countries, such as Cao Cao's reclamation and the implementation of the Jiupin Zheng Zhi system. Zhuge Liang's strategy of "the west and the jungle, Zhao Yi in the south, Sun Quan in the outside and politics at home"; Sun Wu's ruling policy of developing aristocratic families objectively played a beneficial role in the unification of the whole country, and their emergence and existence were reasonable.
