Though this is another good example of the dangers of fictionalized history.

It's like how everyone thinks Liu Bei was this real noble guy during the Three Kindoms Era due to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms book... when he got his kingdom by freaking stealing it from his own relative.

Liu Bei was just as bloodthirsty as the rest if not more.

In real history "Cao Cao" was likely the "good guy" of the three... if you could even call any of them good guys.

Or the afore mentioned "Middle ages people thought the world was flat"

Paul Revere's midnight ride.

Oh there are tons of them.

Cao Cao get named a lot as the best of the three.  I think you are referring to gamers their opinion?

The thing is that many people are fans of the Three brothers  Guan Yu, Liu Bei, Zhang Fei and Zhou Yun and Zhuge Liang/Mao Chao... and probably that is why they choose Liu Bei?

I meant real life.

ROTK games being based on the ROTK by Luo Guanzhong which iteslf is a fictionalized account of the Three Kingdoms time period, but also the most well known account of the fall of the Han.

The actual historical records such tell a much different tale.

People choose Liu Bei based on the real story?  Well that is the thing I wanted to say I never met someone who choose Liu Bei except gamers :s or are big fans of the other characters I mentioned.

Well, based on the ROTK novel, which isn't really the "real story."
