you know when those 3 were in the peach garden, they said that they'll live together and die together, but in reality they didn't die together, but rather Guan Yu died first.

True. Did you know that afterwards, Guan Yu became the Chinese God of War? If you ever go to Hangzhou in China, there is even a shrine dedicated to him.

Because Liu Bei's son was such a low life! Liu Bei was wise and generous and a great ruler, Zhu Ge Liang being his trusted strategist. Liu Bei actually told Zhu Ge Liang that he could take his son's inheritance of the kingdom away if the son was "unfit" for it. Zhu Ge Liang did not, however, because he honored Liu Bei... Liu Bang 忘恩负义.

In Chinese, it is San Gou Yan Yi. That translates to: Three Kingdoms Perform Drama.

The short name for the book and movie is San Guo Yan Yi, I forgot the full name.

The game you played was probably called San Guo Ying Xion Zhuan.

Yes, it is true that the Peach Garden is fictional. The romance of the three kingdoms are about only 60% historian correct.

Well, what else is fictional in the Three Kingdoms novel. If someone could answer these:

1. I know Diao Chan wasn't a real person, so why then did Lu Bu kill Dong Zhou?

2. What about Zhuge Liang's calling of the wind? What really happened at the Battle of Chi Bi?

3. Was Zhao Yun's rescuing of Liu Chan at Chang Ban also fictional? If so, what really happened?

4. Was the Zhuage Liang's Nanman campaign also fictional?

5. Was the Battle of Wu Zhang (the battle where Zhuge Liang died and Jiang Wei made everyone retreat) also fictional?
