Quanrong
The Quanrong were a people living on the western and north-western borders of the Zhou realm in early China, counted by Zhou writers among the non-Chinese Rong. In 771 BCE, allied with the Marquis of Shen, they sacked the Western Zhou capital Haojing and killed King You. The disaster forced the court to move east to Luoyang, beginning the Eastern Zhou period.
