After the death of [[Sun Jian]], the court of Wu named Sun Quan Prince of Wu and placed him on the throne. It is not known exactly why he was chosen over his older brother Sun Ce; this was likely because of power struggles in the court. He was only a teenager when he took the throne, so he was controlled by his advisors until age 20, when he took full control of his own kingdom.
