Kingdom of Chu
King of Chu was the title used by several rebellion leaders during the collapse of Qin Dynasty. Using the old Warring State name of Chu, these Kings claimed to be the rightful ruler of the old Chu territory (Nowaday provinces of Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui and Jiangsu). One of them, Xin, King Huai of Chu was really a descendent of the royal family of Chu.
