The Creation of China Explained

Описание к видео The Creation of China Explained

We will look at the creation of China. We start by looking at the Yellow River Civilization and how they spread to the Yang Tze River Basin. How the people formed a unified ethnic group called the Han Chinese. From there we look at the creation of the very first dynasty, the Shang Dynasty. How it was replaced with the Zhou Dynasty, and how it dissolved into the Warring States Period.
We then focus on the start of the Chinese Iron Age. And how it allowed the State of Qin to grow into one of the powerful states at the end of the Warring States Period.
We then follow the life of Qin Shi Huang, or Ying Zheng, how he was called at birth. We talk about how they conquered the other 6 states of the Zhao, Wei, Qi, Han, Chu, and Yan. And we look at how the Qin state unified China under the Qin Dynasty.
From there we look at how they unified Chines language, Chinese writing, and Chinese bureaucracy. And how it became an early centralized state.
After Qin the Chinese Empire collapsed and we see the emergence of the Han Dynasty.
