China has experienced several changes and evolutions throughout the centuries, though some of the most marked and influential changes stem from the transitionary period of the Tang dynasty to the Song dynasty. These changes, which include the re-definition of gendered space, the rise of the scholar’s status and the prominence of Neo-Confucianism (among other things) were not only political and economic evolutions, but also cultural shifts that would later characterize Chinese history. Let us begin by examining Neo-Confucianism.
At first, Buddhism received positive responses (Documents 2 and 3) and indifferent responses (Documents 1 and 5), with the Chinese encouraging and defending its customs/beliefs during times of political and social unrest because it offered relief towards the Chinese people and prevented further chaos. Later, Buddhism received negative and unfavorable scrutiny (Documents 4 and 6) after the Tang dynasty was established since it blamed Buddhism for social/political problems because Buddhism rejected the social hierarchy favored by government officials.
During the years 600-900 A.D. of the Chinese Empire, the Tang Dynasty was in power, and was considered the Golden age of Chinese civilization. The dynasty's second emperor, Taizong, started campaigns to deal with threats from the Nomadic Tribes. Due to these campaigns in the Tarim Basin, the Silk Road was able to stay open, allowing for trade in the Middle East and Europe. This trading society encouraged people from distant countries to come and settle in China. Another advancement affecting trade was the “equal-field system” which not only saw that everyone received proper care, but that all land was being farmed. This was possible by making it that people given land did not have to give it up to the military service, called the “Fubing System”,
A. One of the most important public works projects taken on by the Sui dynasty was the grand canal. This canal was so important due to it facilitating trade between north and south China which then allowed rice and other crops to be available in the north.
The Han Dynasty is the largest dynasty since the Zhou Dynasty, although this is not the dynasty for wars like the Zhou was. The year is one hundred and the Dynasty we are living in has learned much from the dynasties before it and used them to shape our civilization today. In the Han Dynasty we use our language, beliefs, and government all together for a successful system to live in. These three things are crucial to our individual lives and why China will retain power for many more dynasties. Another key to our success is the administrated structure we use. The dynasty before us (Qin Dynasty) divided our nation into many parts that were ruled by royal officials. We use this system too, however, we adopted the ideology from Confucius that emphasized
What was life like during the Shang Dynasty, and what effect did writing have on Chinese culture and government?
During the long era of Chinese Dynasties, three School of Thoughts emerged as philosophers spread their knowledge across the empires. Although each of the three philosophers that founded these School of Thoughts were able to alter the ways of the people’s beliefs, one in particular had ideals that over time, were powerful enough to change the ways of the Chinese culture, and eventually the world. Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, focused on spreading his political and ethical views based on how “humans should act in harmony with the universe” ( World History 91), and the effect of this would allow their society to blossom. As word of the practice of Confucianism spread, the Chinese empires began to adapt to new changes that this school of thought taught, and overtime, the government, and lives of the Chinese began to revolve around the Confucian

The Shang Dynasty in China was located in an incredibly fertile area bordered by the Himalaya Mountains to the west, the Yellow and East China Seas to the east, and the Gobi Desert to the north. Shang China is the fertile ground located between the Yellow and Yangtze rivers, centered around the Yangtze. Without the continuous threats of attack from other tribes and dynasties, the Shang Dynasty could concentrate more on improving their homes and themselves. The Shang people began as a nomadic tribe, hunting and searching for their food everyday, and settled in the Henan province where they adopted an agricultural lifestyle. Floods were common. Each year, the floods would demolish the towns and homes, but the floods also brought fertile soil
The Song Dynasty, which began in 960 CE, is considered one of the “golden ages” of China. During this time, significant technological, economic, and agricultural advances were made. Over the course of the Song dynasty, there was a population of close to or at 100 million, higher than many countries’ populations today. New ways were found to grow and harvest rice in order to satisfy the people of the state. Farmers expanded their business to the general public.

Move forward to the Tang Dynasty (618-907), another golden period of Chinese history, which has recovered from the long period of wars, with the population surpassing the Han Dynasty. China enjoyed a long peaceful period of economic development since the Emperor Taizong of Tang, one of the greatest emperors in Chinese history. Taizong regulated the market, and more importantly the taxation system; he set various standards of price and quality of certain goods, and left the market to the people.
The Qing dynasty lasted from 1644 until 1911. During their time of authority, there were many success and failures. Passing the ruling status onto their sons & daughters. They all died eventually and left a legacy behind them. Conquering lands and going into war was very popular during the 1500’s. Whoever looked after his or her people were much worshiped for their victorious and leadership skills! Born on 1559 in Manchu, Nurhachu was the founder of Qing dynasty. For more than 30 years, Nurhachu and his troops had fought over land and united many tribes in Manchu.

The development of the early civilizations in China was impacted by geography because it helped increase trade, provided them with natural resources and grow a surplus of food.
During this time the dynasty was blessed with three rulers of supreme ability: Li Shih-Min, known as the Emperor T’ang Tai Tsung, the real founder of the dynasty, who is often spoken of as the greatest of all Chinese emperors; the Empress Wu fought her way to the throne with bloodthirsty ruthlessness and yet brought twenty years of peace and prosperity to the empire; and the lastly T’ang Ming Huang who brought the empire to the peak of its prosperity and cultural splendour, and then, alas, in the foolishness of his old age saw the whole splendid fabric torn to shades.
