"The War of Southern Aggression"
Nickname in Chinese historiography of the conflict and conquests provoked by Yue raids at the fall of the Westernmost Zhou Dynasty, commonly seen as the result of a conspiration among Yue States (or Great Yue State), in alliance with Ji Dynasty as a gambit of the latter to take the leadership in China.
Eventually Ji Dynasty fall too, but contrary to the remnants of Westernmost Zhou that eventually were unified by Son Dynasty in the IInd century BCE, the southern parts of the former empire (a bit more than just Ji Dynasty holdings) was conquered by Yue groups, formingsinicized petty-kingdoms there whom the lasts were conquered in the early Ist century BCE.
Ji Dynasty's role and the decline of Westernmost Zhou was eventually diminished, in order to put the major blame not on Chinese (except for traditionally branded "traitors") but on Yue peoples.
->Fall of Massalia
