Chinese history is generally divided into dynasties or periods
during which particular family or group of people
reigned.
Chinese states were unified into a large
empire with a central government.
The Chinese empire lasted for over two thousand
years surviving periods of internal turmoil, attacks
from outside invaders and the rise and fall of
numerous dynasties.
The poet T’ao Ch’ien lived during the period
known as the Six Dynasties (220 A.D – 581
A.D), one of the most tumultuous eras in the
Chinese History.
ChineseDynasties
SHANG DYNASTY 1700-1050 BC
The first Chinese dynasty
that left historical records,
the loosely feudal Shang,
settled along the Yellow
River in eastern China from
the 17th to the 11th
century BC.
SHANG DYNASTY 1700-1050 BC
The oracle bone script of
the Shang Dynasty
represents the oldest form
of Chinese writing yet
found, and is a direct
ancestor of modern
Chinese characters.
SHANG DYNASTY 1700-1050 BC
The Shang were conquered
by the Chou, who ruled
between the 12th and 5th
centuries BC, until its
centralized authority was
slowly eroded by feudal
warlords.
Chou Dynasty (1045-255 BC)
Their dynasty lasted for about 800 years.
The great literary works of philosophy and religion that became the basis for
Chinese religious and social belief stem from what is called the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476) and the Warring States Period (475-221).
Chou Dynasty (1045-255 BC)
Taoism, Confucian literature, and other prominent religious and philosophical
schools all emerged during these periods.
Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)
The Warring States period ended in 221 BC, after the state of Qin conquered the
other six kingdoms and established the first unified
Chinese state.
Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)
Qin Shi Huang, the emperor of Qin, proclaimed himself the "First Emperor" (始皇帝 ) and imposed reforms throughout
China, notably the forced standardization of the
Chinese language, measurements, length of cart
axles, and currency.
Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)
The Qin Dynasty lasted only fifteen years, falling soon
after Qin Shi Huang's death, as its harsh legalist and
authoritarian policies led to widespread rebellion.
Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)
Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)
The subsequent Han Dynasty ruled China between 206 BC and 220 AD, and created a lasting Han cultural identity among its populace that has endured to the present day.
Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)
The Han Dynasty expanded the empire's territory considerably
with military campaigns reaching Korea, Vietnam,
Mongolia and Central Asia, and also helped establish the Silk
Road in Central Asia.
Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)
Han China gradually became the largest economy of the
ancient world. At the beginning of the era, Confucianism was revived. Confucian texts were
rewritten and republished.
Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)
The resulting ideology was the official ideology of the Han Dynasty and
influenced political thinking afterwards.
The era’s major contributions were historical texts and scientific works.
T’ang Dynasty (618-907)
T’ang Dynasty (618-907)
The T’ang Dynasty had a big empire that benefited from trade
with the west along the Silk Road, battled with the Tibetan Empire,
and experienced the growing influence of organized Buddhist
religions.
T’ang Dynasty (618-907)
This era’s main contribution to Chinese literature was in the
poetry of Dufu, Li Bai and many other poets. Dufu and Li Bai are
often thought of as China’s greatest poets.
Sung Dynasty (960-1279)
Sung Dynasty (960-1279) Military technology greatly advanced. They traded little
with the west due to the presence of warring Muslim states on the old trade routes.
There wasn’t territorial expansion, but the empire was continuously attacked by nomadic tribes and countries around them.
So the era is divided into two eras called the Northern Sung (960-1127) and Southern Sung (1127-1279) eras.
Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)
Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)
The Chinese rebelled against the Mongols, and the Ming Dynasty era began about 1368.
One of the four great classics called Journey to the West about a monk going to India was written during this time of isolation.
Novels were the era’s main contribution.
Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)
Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)
The Mongols established the very rich Yuan Dynasty.
The Mongols were nomadic people who herded cattle north of the Tang Empire and wandered over a large area fighting on horseback.
Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)
It was a big empire with high technology, a big population and a big army.
It was an era of some historically renowned dramatic playwrights and novelists who wrote in vernacular language.
In the 19th century, various rebellions and wars took place which caused the end of the
dynastic rules.

TRADITION
AND
CULTURE
Chinese Wedding Traditions
Red is the Color of Weddings in China
Red is central to the wedding theme of China. It signifies love, joy and prosperity and is used in variety of ways in Chinese wedding traditions.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
The bride's wedding gown is often red, as are the wedding invitations, and wedding gift boxes or envelopes for cash gifts. Even the bride and groom's homes are decorated in red on the wedding day.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
Before the Chinese Wedding Day
A Chinese bride traditionally goes into seclusion with her closest friends. This Chinese custom gives the bride-to-be some time to symbolically mourn the loss of her friends and family.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
Some time before the couple are married, the groom’s family carries wedding gifts in red baskets and boxes to the bride’s house. One of the basket contain “uang susu” or “milk money”. Others will contain personal things for the bride, so that on her wedding day all of her personal belongings will be in the groom’s house.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
The bride takes the gifts to another room where they are sorted through. Three days before the wedding day, women from the bride’s family reciprocate, bearing gifts– including some returns in red wrapping to the grooms family.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
The Day of the Wedding Ceremony
Wedding anniversaries in China, are carefully chosen according to astrological signs. It is also customary for couples to be married on the half-hour or their wedding day rather than at the top of the hour.

Chinese food
• Chinese cuisine includes styles originating from the diverse regions of China, as well as from Chinese people in other parts of the world. The history of Chinese cuisine in China stretches back for thousands of years and has changed from period to period and in each region according to climate, imperial fashions, and local preferences. Over time, techniques and ingredients from the cuisines of other cultures were integrated into the cuisine of the Chinese people due both to imperial expansion and from the trade with nearby regions in pre-modern times, and from Europe and the New World in the modern period.
• Over time, techniques and ingredients from the cuisines of other cultures were integrated into the cuisine of the Chinese people due both to imperial expansion and from the trade with nearby regions in pre-modern times, and from Europe and the New World in the modern period.
• Styles and tastes also varied by class, region, and ethnic background. This led to an unparalleled range of ingredients, techniques, dishes and eating styles in what could be called Chinese food, leading Chinese to pride themselves on eating a wide variety of foods while remaining true to the spirit and traditions of Chinese food culture.
The Chinese Language• Chinese (漢語 ) comprises of seven main
dialects, Mandarin (官話 ), Cantonese (廣州話 , 廣府話 ), Hakka (客家話 ), Wu (吳語 ), Min (閩語 ), Xiang (湘語 ), and Gan ( 贛語 ) (Fig. 1). The variety of Mandarin based on the speech in the capital Beijing is the official national language of mainland China and is termed Pŭtōnghuà, Common language (普通話 ). The de facto common language in Hong Kong and overseas Chinese communities is Cantonese. Amongst the official languages of Taiwan are Mandarin, Taiwanese, and Hakka (Fig. 1).
Chinese alphabet
• There are and have been several Chinese alphabets, that is pre-existing alphabets adapted to write down the Chinese language. However, the standard Chinese writing system uses a non-alphabetic script with an alphabet for supplementary use.[1] There is no original alphabet native to China. China has its Pinyin system though sometimes the term is used anyway to refer to logographic Chinese characters (sinograms). It is more appropriately used, though, for phonemic transcriptions such as pinyin.
CHINESE MONEY
• Chinese Currency – Renminbi (RMB)• Chinese yuan, also known as Renminbi, is used throughout
in mainland China, while in Hong Kong and Macau, Hong Kong dollar and pataca are respectively used. The basic unit of Renminbi is Yuan and the sign of Yuan is ¥ .
• The metric conversion about Chinese Yuan is :• 1Yuan=10jiao 1jiao=10fen • In some parts of China, yuan is called kuai and jiao is
