Hua Mulan Short Biography

Born in 4th-6th century AD in Northern Wei, Hua Mulan was a skilled female warrior and became an inspiration for many Chinese girls throughout the years.

Hua Mulan is believed to have been a girl who takes the place of her aging father in the army to protect him.

She disguised herself as a man for 12 years and fought against nomadic hoarders, making her into a skilled warrior.

Upon the army’s victory, she is honored by the emperor and is given a distinguished position in the army, she turns down the offer and returns home. Only then do her fellow soldiers find out that she was a woman.

The story of Hua Mulan is first told in the Ballad of Mulan, an old folk song. Her story was also adapted into a play by Xu Wei a thousand years after the folk song was written.

Throughout the years Mulan’s story has been told in various ways and formats such as Disney’s 1998 animated movie starring Ming Na Wen as Mulan.

There is still debate as to whether or not Mulan was a real person or merely a work of fiction. But her story is a strong contributor to feminism and the realization of women’s capabilities beyond their traditional domestic roles.
