The ancient Hawaiian culture developed a social hierarchy featuring chiefs (aliʻi) and priests (kahuna) as leaders. This stratified society was organized with the aliʻi at the top, who held political and religious power, followed by the kahuna, who were skilled practitioners in various fields, including medicine and religion. The structure was deeply intertwined with the belief system and land management practices of the islands. This hierarchical system helped maintain order and governance within the communities.

Why were so many cultures developed in ancient china?

I think many different cultures developed within ancient China because back then, China was split up in to several parts that had different leaders. All these great leaders had different perspectives on how to rule China and some were stronger than others. Before China became one, there were many dynasties that believed in different things, ruled differently and made different discoveries and inventions. During every dynasty, each emperor changed China and made it better than it was before. Each emperor created a different culture. Each emperor influenced a new culture and the Chinese civilization.
