The Ancient Chinese People From The Han Empire

In the early 1880’s immigrants started to come over to the United States. Immigrants came into the United States for job opportunities, and a better life for there families. Immigrants come from all over the world, such as chinese, Italian, and Russian immigrants. The experiences of Chinese immigrants differed from immigrants from Italy, and Russia. Their experiences differed, because of how they came over to America, where they lived, and jobs.

First, the Han Dynasty was more important to the development of China because it created the idea of a Civil Service Exam. The Han Dynasty readopted the idea of having families rulers after the Qin Dynasty strayed from the tradition; however, they kept the idea of bureaucrats from the Qin Dynasty. They used appointed government officials to oversee the day-to-day work of their government. This lead them to implement the Civil Service Exam. The exam was meant to help chose the bureaucrats for the government. It was a test centered around the ideas of Confucius and how to apply them to everyday life. By making this a normal part of Chinese society, the Han Dynasty was able to extend government official job opportunities to people of all social classes. In addition, because the exam gave these opportunities to all people, all people put more emphasis on

Usually you would hear of hundreds of people being killed by terrorist attacks, airplane crashes, or war, but in Ancient China, the Great Wall of China killed hundreds of peasants in the makings through forced labor. The benefits didn't outweigh the costs because through the makings of the wall, it separated families, killed soldiers, and families/ loved ones sacrificed their lives and lifestyle.

“ All our civilization is based on invention; before invention, men lived on fruits and nuts and pine cone and slept in caves “ - Reginald Fessenden. All major civilizations have a significant influence on mankind and the different inventions the civilizations produced. Although, it is evident that the Chinese Civilization has the greatest impact on the development of man out of all of the civilizations due to the innovation of gunpowder, and the discovery of the silk road.

New agricultural techniques, porcelain, metallurgy, printing, and naval technology were few of the technological elements that reinforced the established features of social order. New agricultural techniques helped in the expand of their agricultural potential, the dynasties gained reputation from porcelain technology which moderately diffused to other societies producing porcelain in large quantities, metallurgical techniques as well diffused to lands beyond China, printing produced texts quickly and popular works appeared in huge quantities, and naval technology included of the magnetic compass which soon became common for mariners to use. Population growth, patriarchal social structures, and gunpowder were technological elements reinforcing established features of political order. Population growth reflected the capacity of economy and distribution of food, patriarchal social structures included of concern to preserve family fortunes and foot binding, and gunpowder was an element used for military effectiveness. These aspects provided a fundamental change in traditions because they changed their whole concepts of how to use goods as in previous Chinese eras.

The Han dynasty was a golden era for China. It saw the greatest land confiscation of the nation’s history and economic success. In this paper I will be focusing on the structure of the national government, the monopolizing of iron and salt, the Yumen Pass and the Yellow Turban rebellion. Join me as we take a trip back in time to visit a time in Chinas history that is highly revered.

In all The empires they seemed to all have the same advantage. There empire expanded. But they also all fell. They all fell in different ways but they all connect. Because they were either smaller or did not have higher advanced weapons. Someone always seemed to 1 up every empire. so examples on how they feel, the Ming and Qing empire were the 1st empire to have gunpowder but then others realized how to make the guns and could make them more advanced. The Ming and Qing empire fell because the used their weapons as defence more than offence. Another empire is The Portuguese, they could easily blast other ships and force people to trade with them. They fell because other people learned to make better weapons. Also the Portuguese strained relation

Past- Peasants were the lowest class of the Han dynasty. About 90% (160 million) of people were peasants. During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, peasants didn't own their lands. Throughout the Han Dynasty, most peasants owned a small area of land and gave a portion of their crops to the government to pay as tax. The peasants' survival depended on the quality of the crops while they also faced floods, earthquakes, and famine. During the first half of the Han dynasty, there were 20 periods of droughts, floods, and famines. Peasants faced extreme danger to cope with the natural disasters and ensure the survival of their children. During famine, parents had to kill their babies that they couldn't feed. They sometimes sold their children into slavery

Religion and philosophy affected daily life in various cultures. The cultures that were severely affected were Ancient India and Ancient China.

[Abstract] These are two world-renowned arts: traditional opera and dance. Since its appearance, Chinese ancient art has taken on the form that songs, dance and poems are performed on the same stage at the same time, usually accompanied by acrobatics and traditional Chinese operas. As a branch of traditional Chinese opera, Puxian Opera which it comes from Fujian province that is called the “Living Fossil with Mud”, plain and exquisite. Posture rhymes system of Chinese classical dance has been searching essence from traditional Chinese operas since it established over half a century ago. The origin between them can be dated back to the “Acrobatics” in Han dynasty and the “Team Dance” in Song dynasty; in fact they are twins. The ultimate reason

In 1,500 bc, the mathematicians of China were using numbers. Long before the people of India invented the number zero, Chinese people were using base ten counting systems. The base ten method they used is different than the one we use today, using ancient Chinese math, the number 465 would be written as four one hundred markers, six ten markers, and five one markers. They were also advanced in geometry, this was proved in 600 BC, when the Tangram was invented. The Tangram is an amazing math game, that allows you to explore geometry to huge extents. This essay tells the fascinating story of how the game is played, how it was used, and how it became known to the western world.

In Ancient China, 210–209 BCE thousands of Terracotta Warriors were constructed to protect the Emperor Qin, in afterlife. The Terracotta warriors were found in 1974, east of Xi’an, when farmers were digging a water well on barren land, consequently hitting a warrior’s head. The news spread quickly and many archaeologists swarmed the site to uncover more. Many pits have been discovered with over eight thousand Terracotta Warriors and horses. Situated around 1.5 kilometers east of Emperor Qin Shi Huang 's royal tomb, this significant discovery is an ongoing work site.

Once language begins to develop, though, humans wrote on anything that would stand still long enough. Clay tablets, bamboo, papyrus and stone were only a few of the early writing surfaces. Things changed once the Chinese, specifically a man named Cai Lun, invented the prototype for modern paper. Before Cai’s breakthrough, the Chinese wrote on thin strips of bamboo and lengths of silk, but in AD 105, he created a mixture of wood fibers and water and pressed it onto a woven cloth. The weave in the cloth allowed the moisture in the pulpy mixture to seep out, resulting in rough paper. (Josh Clark)

As the knowledge of the substance became known along the Silk Road, (India, the Middle East, and Europe), countries all over the world quickly implemented the same kind of warfare. The invention of the compass was initially developed as a way of fortune telling. The Chinese also felt that by aligning homes with the cardinal points of the compass it would bring forth religious and good luck, which fed into the common superstition of that time. By the late 13th Century, the Chinese were using compasses to navigate the seas around the world. It became a crucial navigational aid and helped increased trade among Mediterranean and Northern Europe. Porcelain, the spinning wheel, the mechanical clock, and the seismograph remain noteworthy inventions as well. Porcelain was developed from the firing of pottery. The invention of porcelain enabled the Chinese to create many different kinds of decorative motifs and ceramic wares. They became highly exported items in oversea markets. Another highly exported good was silk. There was always a high demand for silk fabric. This led to the invention of the spinning wheel. The spinning wheel was a circular machine that would wind fibers of silk into thread. Fibers within the silk would be stretched and aligned by a wheel on the machine that was spun by a drive belt. The invention was later introduced to Europe by the Italians. The mechanical clock was invented by the Buddhist monk Yi Xing
