Did the shang or the Zhou dynasty last longer?

The Roman Empire lasted for 503 years (27 BCE- 476 CE), but arguably 1480 years (27 BCE- 1453 CE), as its eastern half lived on much, much longer than the Western half, but the eastern half took the name of the Byzantine Empire. The Zhou dynasty lasted for 790 years (1046 BCE- 256 BCE). So it really depends on what you consider the Roman empire, but most people will say the Zhou Dynasty lasted longer (790 versus 503), because the eastern half of the Roman Empire was basically a different empire after Rome fell.

Which dynasty rebuilt the great wall?

most people would say that the Qin (Chi'n) dynasty built the wall but it reall was the Zhou dynasty. The zhou started parts of the wall and other dynasties added on or repaired the wall. well i think that most dynasty added a little somthing to it because the great wall was built a couple of times. as a matter of fact i think they are building a new one right now and they get people to work for them and then when those people die because they are worked to death they get new people (i got to social studies) The wall wasn't built in the Zhou Dynasty. During the Zhou Dynasty there were a lot of feudal states which each built part of the wall to defend against the invaders from the north of China. The wall was joined together in the Qin Dynasty and they added on to it so it was really built by the Qin Dynasty. Several other dynasties later also repaired and added on to the wall. The last to do so was the Ming Dynasty.
