Leland: China

This Dynasty had Military might with their cast-bronze weapons. The bronze also had a religious significance for the Shang. http://www.arscives.com/historysteel/images1/cb-23.jpg

The People Created big Cities. Eventually these separate states battled for dominance. The bronze form the Shang Dynasty lost their religous significance and became symbols of personal status. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cf/De_stridande_staterna_animering.gif

Even though this Dynasty only lasted for so long, some important buildings were started like the beginning of the great wall. As well as the terra-cotta warriors. This Dynasty was also successful in unifying all of China. http://theqin-dynasty-ag.weebly.com/uploads/1/5/3/3/15334542/715668736.jpg?327

One of the Golden ages of the Chinese Dynasties. They made a military expansion, a political centralization, and the invention of paper. They also had lead glazing ceramics. They established a trading route called The Silk Road that extended to Rome! Some of their tombs were decorated with figures and Geometric shapes. These tombs gives us a clue of about their Costumes, architecture and aristocratic past times. http://fourriverscharter.org/projects/Inventions/images/silk%20road%202.jpg http://i.huffpost.com/gen/3163536/images/o-HAN-SOLO-facebook.jpg (I had to do it)

WAR

This dynasty was ruled by a progressive leader. After the emperor died, however, a much more horrible leader came to the throne and led many to starve.

Also in this dynasty, Sui potters took steps into inventing porcelain by molding white clay. http://www.chinapage.com/canal01c.gif
