Ancient China

There was one main Chinese trade route called the Silk Road. Many trade routes ran across Northern China to Asia. Many merchants traveled that route to import luxury goods. In many places as well as China people used almost all their life farming to get fruits and vegetables to sell. The Chinese exported silk cloth and porcelain was exported to Asia and Europe. A coin they used in Ancient China was a round foot spade. They were extremely rare. Round foot spades came in two different sizes You had to be really wealth to own a Round foot spade.

rice wine,

to make the wine,they would have washed the rice and poured alcohol into a dish with the rice in it. Then cover with glade rap and stored in a place which is dry but warm around 20 degrees and leave it for 2 weeks. Then afterwards it will become rice wine.

It would have a spicy and rice favoured smell and they wine is slightly cloudy coloured.

Taklamakan and Ordos and Lop Desert, China only has 3 deserts

Yes, many advanced ancient civilizations used Irrigation. It was one of their many keys to success.

China is located in eastern continental Asia. The oldest Chinese civilizations were in the Yellow River valley, and along the connected coasts of the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea (arms of the Pacific Ocean). The associated groups were the Zhou Dynasty (circa 1066 BC) and possibly even earlier Shang and Xia dynasties.

Ancient Chinese men were often soldiers and labourers. They were superior to women and were to look after their household. Men could be scholars, merchants, slaves or government officials.The men were in charge of farming.

There were four different occupation classes in China.

The highest group was made up of scholars, called "shi". They were the people like nobles and philosophers.

Most of the population worked as farmers (nong), growing food and taking care of livestock. They were the poorest of all the groups, but (after the class of the scholars) were the most respected because their work was what kept China fed.

Then there were the craftsmen and artists (gong). Craftsmen jobs included metalworkers, carpenters, musicians, potters, leather workers, and many others. Most of the craftsmen weren't rich, but were more well off than the farmers, though less respected.

And last there were the merchants (shang). They basically were the people who bought things from different provinces and sold them in places with more demand for more money. It was a job based on cleverness as opposed to skill, and this is why I'm guessing that the shang class was least respected. They usually got very rich, especially when the silk routes started to form.

And there are a few more jobs that come to mind just from common sense: there were probably doctors and scribes, although I do not know whether they would be considered as scholars or craftsmen. Not to mention there were probably messengers (couriers) and lacquer-workers -- both probably craftsmen. On top of all that, all men of a certain age were required to join the army as a soldier for two years.

Hope this was helpful.

Answering this question is hard because the evidence is not complete. Little is known about the agriculture and stock rearing in early China. They were making pottery by the same methods used in Western Asia and it was decorated with pigmented clays painted onto the surface and fired in an early kiln. Another development is the use of jade since it does not come from China so this shows a trade route was in use 3 thousand years before the "silk road" was developed. The early Chinese also produced bronze as early as 1500 BC and it was different from the bronze produced in Western Asia. In China precise molds were made and maybe using lost wax methods. Other early inventions were the chariot and the composite bow. The chariot was pulled by horses and the bow was short and could be used on the chariot. The first writing in China was with pictogram and not for the purpose of keeping records. They, instead, were on bone and used for divination. Originally there were 5,000 symbols. In China the entire industrial bronze output was in the hands of the rulers and much of it was done for rituals. The farmer, the woodworker, and many craftsmen still had to rely on stone tools. It wasn't until the appearance of iron that these people got metal tools.

Emperor Shi Huang Di standardized the first money in the 2nd Century BCE. He also standardized the wheel axle width, weights and measures and connected the parts of the Wall to form the major parts of the Wall that is known today.

wedge is the ''most ancient'' tool. It has been used through 100.000 years.

calligraphy or traditional Chinese text, has been used for centuries, and the technique on how to paint or write the symbols was passed on through generations. Students who attend school there are expected to learn thousands of characters by the time they pass to middle school. This style has been the same since ancient times, but an improved, easy-to-use version of calligraphy, called simplified Chinese, in now taught and popular, because its easier to draw. This is used in most computer-based texts.

The Chinese have built dams to prevent flooding.

By using messengers and roads that they built.

Many also wrote letters.

The paper was inveted by the Chinese so that they could write smoothly

It probably invented paper to record thing they traded, what they produced, and other thing.

Before they had used paper for writing they actually used it for clothing such a jackets and shoes and other things

There were four big religions in Ancient China, Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism and Chinese folk religion.

Confucianism is less of a religion and more of a set of rules on how people should treat each other and the relations between different people, how the Father be towards the Son and how to Lord should treat the Subject,

Taoism deals a lot with mystical forces and includes a multitude of Gods ranging from the All-mighty Three Pure Ones to local Gods revered in only a single village. The ruler of Heaven and all under it is the Jade Emperor, who all Emperor were descendants of and who also granted the Emperor the "Mandate of Heaven", his right to rule.

Buddhism, well just look it up on Wikipedia, you probably already know about it.

Chinese folk religion, it reminds you of Taoism, with it's many Gods and local deities, but it also includes ancestor worship and doesn't require a priest.

The Concept of only being able to believe in a single religion is very "western" and the ancient Chinese, like the modern, believed in a mix of all for of these.

People in China generally wore tunics (like long t-shirts). Women wore long tunics down to the ground, with belts, and men wore shorter ones down to their knees. Sometimes they wore jackets over their tunics. In the winter, when it was cold, people wore padded jackets over their tunics, and sometimes pants under them. In early China, poor people made their clothes of hemp or ramie. Rich people wore silk. Most people in China, both men and women, wore their hair long. People said that you got your hair from your parents and so it was disrespectful to cut it.

During the Sui Dynasty, in the 500's AD, the emperor decided that all poor people had to wear blue or black clothes, and only rich people could wear colors.

The supreme rulers in Ancient China lived fascinating lives.

1. they ruled over the area they owned in china.

2. their job was to control people.

3. they had to be careful because someone would always want their position and they could be killed.

4. they had to be powerful

HOPE THIS HELPED YOU GUYS!

The jobs of women in Ancient China were mainly to look after the children that weren't at school and to make sure that the household was spotless and clean.

It is really hard to say for sure as you can imagine we don't have a whole lot of documents of this age to read!

Kungshu Phan was an engineer around 4th C BC flew wooden dove for three days and nights. Probably this was a kite.

Chang Heng 2nd C BC is recorded flying a similar craft with moving wings.

Han Hsin 169BC used a kite to tell how far to dig a tunnel to a castle he was trying to invade.

Not very good. Women in ancient China (like Modern China) were treated very harshly. They were considered a step below men in ancient society in most cultures, China being one of the worst. The father of the house, if he was poor and needed food, he'd let a nobleman rape the girl in return for wheat or rice. Even today, if a girl has been sexually abused, the police will usually not bother investigating the crime, and may even blame her for it. Now with the one-child policy installed in Chinese cities, if a women is pregnant with a baby girl, the communist government will pressure her to have an abortion and try for a boy. The country has an aging, mostly male population because of this. Because girls aren't as athletic or strong as most men, they couldn't do hard labor, thus bringing no value to the country as a whole. This has been the social norm in China for thousands of years, and it's likely not to change just because of some protestors. China has many other problems, and how they treat women is not on the top of their list. The man would always pick the bride of a wedding, whether the girl says yes or no to it. Things like these are steeped into tradition, and politics, too. It would be like giving gays the right to marry in all 50 states in the U.S. The emperor would have a different sex slave for each night. The jobs women had were sparse and simple, because employers didn't trust them.

One difference between them is that the Roman Empire was a republic, where the wealthy aristocratic men got to vote for their leader, and Han China was a dynasty, where the rule was passed down the family.
