Period+5+China+History

The culture of the Chinese has not only existed but flourished for over 5,000 years. China’s history can be traced back to a small group of tribes which grew and expanded to the great nation we know today. There have been 24 dynasties to date in their great history, and each of them contributed in their own way to the mighty empire today. For example the Han Dynasty created the Silk Road which opened trade to Central and Western Asia and even Rome. The Tang Dynasty made great strides in agriculture and farming causing food production to sky rocket. The first dynasty, the Xia Dynasty, is legend to be created by a mythical creature. As you can see China has a rich, deep culture. By Taylor Robinson Colt Yanniello Matt Wagner
