The Xin dynasty (; 新朝 Xīncháo|w=Hsin¹-chʻao²|l=New dynasty) was a short-lived Chinese dynasty (termed so despite having only one monarch) which lasted from 9 to 23 AD, established by Han dynasty consort kin Wang Mang, who usurped the throne of Emperor Ping of Han and the infant "crown prince" Ruzi Ying to rule the empire over a decade before being overthrown by rebels. After Wang's death, the Han monarch was restored by Liu Xiu, a distant descendant of Emperor Jing of Han, therefore the Xin dynasty is often considered an interregnum period of the Han dynasty, dividing it into the Western Han (or "Former Han") and the Eastern Han (or "Later Han").

新朝(9年-23年),又稱新莽,是中國歷史上繼西漢之後的朝代,為當時權臣王莽所建立,僅王莽一代,建都常安(即原長安,今西安)。

西漢末年,人民被豪強欺壓而急需改革,儒者信奉讖緯學說認為將改朝換代,當時漢室外戚王莽博得雅名,獲得人民與儒者的支持,使他以偽造符瑞的方式於初始元年十二月朔(9年1月10日)篡位稱帝,國號為「新」,西漢結束。

王莽稱帝後進行許多改革,主要有改革官制、改變地名、推行王田制、禁止奴婢買賣、五均六筦(國營事業、所得稅與借貸)及改革幣制等。然而,王莽改制大多遵循《周禮》等古制,沒有明確的解決問題。新制政令繁雜,名稱不斷變動。而且朝令夕改,用人不當,改革最終失敗。17年因為天災不斷,而人民因為改革失敗而經濟破產,最後爆發新末民變,赤眉軍、綠林軍等等民變軍相繼而起。新莽軍相繼在成昌之戰、昆陽之戰慘敗。23年綠林軍擁立劉玄稱帝,即更始帝。同年綠林軍攻入長安,王莽被殺,新朝亡。25年東漢光武帝劉秀脫離更始帝宣布登基。同年赤眉軍攻入長安,擁立劉盆子稱帝,由此降於赤眉軍的更始帝不久後被殺。漢光武帝擊潰赤眉軍後,最後於36年一統天下。

新朝開創了中國歷史上透過篡位取得政權的先例。王莽積極推動古制,也使得古文經持續發展。而王莽的失敗代表復古思想的破滅,使得漢儒變法禪讓的政治理論至此消失,漸變帝王萬世一統的思想。東漢班固所寫的《漢書》視王莽為逆臣賊子,以至于新朝一度被稱呼為「亡新」,《資治通鑑》更直接把新朝歸入「漢紀」。因傳統史觀鄙棄用篡位的方式取得政權,所以後世史學家對王莽的評價皆差,直到清末之後評價才逐漸中立。
