The following information is about Zhou.
Zhou Defined
The people and dynasty that took over the dominant position in north China from the Shang and created the concept of the Mandate of Heaven to justify their rule. The Zhou era, particularly the vigorous early period (1027-771 B.C.E.), was remembered in Chinese tradition as a time of prosperity and benevolent rule. In the later Zhou period (771-221 B.C.E.), centralized control broke down, and warfare among many small states became frequent. (p. 61)

- The People's Bank of China--Speeche s: "The acceptance of credit-based [debt-based] national currencies as major international reserve currencies, as is the case in the current system, is a rare special case in history." - Zhou still only proposes backing paper dollars with more paper SDRs (in public that is - maybe the RMB standard is his real dream)
