Today I will talk about the history of China. China started as a bunch of tribes banding together 5000 years ago to create the country. The time periods are separated into Dynasties. At the top of the page is a list of them all. Since China is now a "Republic"(Communist) country, there are no longer dynasties. The mist well known dynasty is the Ming Dynasty which is known for it's white and blue "Ming" vases and other dishes. They are very valuable and rare. They are very fragile because the glass is so thin. The Quin Dynasty was best known for the construction of the Great Wall of China. It was at war very often with the mongols, especially before the Quin dynasty. The wall was created to keep the mongols out. Thanks for reading. I will probably write next week. Good bye.
Wow, James! That's very interesting! I knew that China was split up into dyansties but I didn't know their names or what they were known for in China. I would have loved to live during the Quin Dynasty so I could see the building of the Great Wall of China! I also didn't know that China used to have tribes. That's pretty intersting. I love learning about China and I can't wait to learn more about it.
