姜太公 / Jiang Taigong

姜太公 / Jiang Taigong enters this wiki through 《资治通鉴·周纪》75-2丨“穷奢极侈”的祖师爷管仲 as the founding ruler of 齐国 in the episode’s quick setup. The source uses him to remind listeners that Qi begins as an old Zhou-era enfeoffed state before later court disorder and 管仲’s reforms reshape its Spring-Autumn role.

This is a source-scoped marker page, not a full Jiang Taigong biography. Its purpose is to connect Qi’s founding legitimacy to the later story of 齐桓公 becoming hegemon.
