What brought an end to the zhou dynasty?
the wars of barbarian leader, wu wang
wars between the feudal lords
the drought foretold by the "mandate of heaven"
the end of the appointed 900 years of dynasty

The wars between the feudal lords brought an end to the Zhou dynasty of China. The correct option in regards to all the options given in the question is the second option.
