Before we begin: Think about this… “China will be the next superpower.” That claim was made by the British newspaper, The Guardian, in
June 2006 was not alone in its assessment. As the new millennium dawned, similar headlines appeared with
increasing frequency in lectures, newspaper and magazine articles, and in book titles worldwide.
China’s huge population, its booming economy, its massive trade surplus with the U.S., its military potential,and its growing presence in global political affairs – all of this suggested that China was headed for a major role, perhaps, even a dominant one, in the 21st century.
Few of these authors, however paused to recall that China’s prominence on the world stage was hardly something new OR that its 19th and 20th century position as a “backward,” weak or dependent country, was distinctly at odds with its long history.
Is China poised to resume in the 21st century a much older and more powerful role in world affairs?
A look at China’s Golden Age begins now…

Side Story: How might floating dragons show the power & unity of China?
The Chinese peasants & officials stood along the canal in awe. A line of boats, many shaped like dragons, were part of Emperor Yang Di’s royal tour of the Great Canal.
To show his power, he ordered the boats to be built in the shape of dragons, the symbol of China’s imperial family.
He was dressed in golden, silk robes, which only, he as the Son of Heaven, could wear.

This concludes our look at the Tang and Song Dynasties.
But what about Sinification?
![Page 35: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
China’s Influence on Korea, Japan & Vietnam
Sinification: the term used for the spread of Chinese culture.
During the Tang & Song Dynasties, China exerted a powerful political and cultural influence over its neighbors, in particular Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.
![Page 36: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
A. Sinification in Korea affected politics, art, and religion
1. Tang Dynasty conquered Korea but found maintaining rule to be too difficult, so they removed their military forces from Korea. In return, the Korean Silla dynasty made regular payments of money & goods – tribute – to China!
2. Impressed by the political & economic success of Tang China, Korean leaders did some cultural borrowing from China.
![Page 37: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

B. Sinification in Japan (voluntarily) 1. China NEVER conquered Japan. 2. Success of China under the Tang
motivated Japanese emperors to adopt elements of Chinese civilization
3. reputation as one of history’s greatest cultural borrowers! Buddhism Confucianism
![Page 39: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
4. Heian Period (794 – 1185) A. an ultracivilized aristocracy
Details of this life are captured in Lady Murasaki’s, The Tale of Genji
B. Eventually emperor loses power to the establishment of the Shogun, rule by a military strongman. Emperor remained, but with a greatly
reduced role
![Page 40: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Feudalism in Japan
Became a feudal society Similar to western Europe at about the
same time Rich landowners overseeing poor farm
workers & obtaining protections from a private army of knights, the Samurais.
![Page 41: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
C. Sinification of Vietnam During the Tang, Chinese armies
marched into Vietnam with mixed results Vietnamese revolted early & often Women in Vietman did NOT accept
Confucius’ system of male dominance Rice!
One benefit the Tang got from their interaction with Vietnam was a quicker-ripening form of rice.
Became an important part of the Chinese diet
![Page 42: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

![Page 44: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
II. The Mongol Empire
![Page 45: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
East Asia: 600 - 1450
Main Idea: The Mongols built a vast empire across much of Asia, founded the Yuan dynasty in China, and opened China and the region to greater foreign contacts and trade.
Mongols emerged in the 1200s.
![Page 46: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Why might people surrender to an enemy without a fight?!?!
![Page 47: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Beware of the Mongols… Thousands of soldiers moved forward in a
mass as much as 50 miles wide. Terror spread before them like a huge tidal wave.
Their reputation and their appearance were so frightening that, at word of a Mongol approach, towns and cities would surrender without a fight.
The nomadic Mongols emerged in the late 1200s as one of history’s most brutal & efficient military forces. When on the move, they resembled a small, mobile city.
![Page 48: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Look out! It’s the Mongols… Soldiers traveled in divisions of
10,000 along with their families and herds.
Mongol women carried out domestic tasks but could step into battle to provide help.
Borrowing from many groups, the Mongols combined superior tactics and weaponry with sheer brutality.
The world would not see such military dominance until the modern era!
![Page 49: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
II. The Mongols
A. Nomads from the vast steppes, or grasslands, of north-central Asia in 1200s 1. land was too dry for farming 2. lived as patoralists/ raised goats &
sheep (and raiders as needed) 3. skilled with horses 4. tough environment = tough warriors
![Page 50: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
B. The Universal Leader 1. Traditional a chief was known as a khan 2. Late 1100s, a power khan, Temujin,
began to conquer his rival and unite Mongols clans.
3. In 1207, he took the title Genghis Khan, meaning Universal Leader a. bloody campaign of conquest begins… b. battle tactics included brutality and
psychological warfare c. would burn any town or city who resisted & kill
its inhabitants
![Page 51: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Who was Genghis Khan?
“Submit and live. Resist and die.”
![Page 52: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
C. The Mongol Empire
1. Genghis Khan will spend 20 years conquering much of Asia until his death in 1227.
2. Challenges his descendents to conquer the world…
3. Mongols divided his empire into 4 khanates, or regions and an heir would rule each region, with the Great Khan would rule the whole empire
![Page 53: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
4. Conquered China, Korea, Russia (Russians called them Tartars), Poland, & Hungary.
5. Ready to move into Western Europe, they turned back on learning of the Great Khan’s death
India and Western Europe had escaped Mongol wrath, but most of Eurasia had been devastated.
![Page 54: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
D. The Mongol Peace 1. Interesting contradiction: brutal in
conquering, peaceful in ruling
a. tolerated local beliefs and way of life b. often allowed local rulers to stay in power as
long as they pay tribute c. even adopted aspects of conquered peoples -
Mongols in Central Asia & Persia adopted Islam
2. Pax Mongolia: Mongol Peace
![Page 55: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Pax Mongolia a. Ensured safe travel b. Secured trade routes - protected the Silk
Road - The was no single road; the term "Silk Road" refers to the network of roads which together composed the system. As can be implied by its name, one of the chief commodities which traveled The Silk Road was silk itself.
c. Also noteworthy: most scholars think the Black Death, which wiped out most of Europe during the 1300ss, spread from Asia to the Middle and Europe during this time
![Page 56: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
D. Yuan Dynasty 1.Created in 1279 when Kublai Khan –
grandson of Genghis Khan – declares himself emperor
2.For the 1st time: foreigners ruled ALL of China Kublai Khan gave his dynasty a Chinese name Distrusted the Chinese▪ They were forbidden to hold high gov’t posts▪ Mongols forbidden to marry Chinese▪ Chinese had different laws and (HEAVY) taxes▪ Used native Chinese as laborers for public works projects
![Page 57: China and the World East Asian Connections](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168ed550346895ddfefc6/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Yuan
3. Foreign Trade a. Pax Mongolia made for safe travel for
