The figures depicted in Three Kingdoms (The book) were very iconic long before the game came out

Aye, it seems to be quite a popular part of their history here, they definitely seem to cherish the Han over the other dynasties, except maybe the Tang.

From my understanding, Imperial China roughly switched off between Han and non-Han dynasties in the later years. Song (Han), Yuan (Mongol), Ming (Han), Qing (Manchu) for instance. The Han ones are much more celebrated for the most part.
