At the end of the Zhou Dynasty the area we now know as China had fallen into a state of fragmentation and conflict. While the Zhou dynasty had ruled for several centuries several other states originally feudal domains tried to carve out their own kingdoms. The state of Qin would eventually emerge the victor and unify all of China under one rule for the first time in history.
Qu Yuan served as minister to the Zhou Emperor. A wise and articulate man he was loved by the common people. He did much to fight against the rampant corruption that plagued the court-- thereby earning the envy and fear of other officials. Therefore when he urged the emperor to avoid conflict with the Qin Kingdom the officials pressured the Emperor to have him removed from service. In exile he traveled taught and wrote for several years. Hearing that the Zhou had been defeated by the Qin he fell into despair and threw himself into the Milou River. His last poem reads:
Many a heavy sigh I have in my despairGrieving that I was born in such an unlucky time.I yoked a team of jade dragons to a phoenix chariotAnd waited for the wind to cometo sour up on my journey
As he was so loved by the people fishermen rushed out in long boats beating drums to scare the fish away and throwing zong zi into the water to feed braver fish so that they would not eat Qu Yuan's body.
The Modern Dragon Boat Festival started from that time to this day people commemorated Qu Yuan through Dragon Boat Races eating zong zi and several other activities on the anniversary of his death: the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.
Dragon Boat races are the most exciting part of the festival drawing crowds of spectators. Dragon Boats are generally brightly painted and decorated canoes. Ranging anywhere from 40 to 100 feet in length their heads are shaped like open-mouthed dragons while the sterns end with a scaly tail. Depending on the length up to 80 rowers can power the boat. A drummer and flag-catcher stand at the front of the boat. Before a dragon boat enters competition it must be "brought to life" by painting the eyes in a sacred ceremony. Races can have any number of boats competing with the winner being the first team to grab a flag at the end of the course. Annual races take place all over China Hong Kong Macao Taiwan and other overseas Chinese communities.
