Jia Sidao (died 1279) was a Chinese statesman of the Nan (Southern) Song dynasty (1127–1279) who achieved great power over the throne after his sister became a concubine of the emperor Lizong (reigned 1224/25–1264). In charge of Mongol affairs, he followed a policy of placating these Central Asian tribes and has therefore traditionally been held responsible for the final Mongol subjugation of southern China in 1279, which led to the establishment of the foreign Yuan dynasty (1206–1368) over all of China. Jia has also been faulted for his total domination of the throne under Lizong’s successor, the emperor Duzong (reigned 1264/65–1274).
