When did the silk road end?

It never really did, it just changed. It was a trade route (not really a road) across Asia that was used to deliver goods from the East. By the time the goods got to the West the prices were inflated hundreds of times. Eventually, the Portugese found a maritime route around Africa and got the goods basically first hand and changed the road that way. Colombus tried to go straight around the world to make a route although something blocked his path. Anyhoo, the rest is history--we're trading all over the place.

What is the main idea of Cranes by Hwang Sunwon?

The main idea of Cranes by Hwang Sun-Won is more of a symbolic thing; he uses different objects such as chestnuts and cigarettes, as well as the cranes in the story to convey his hope and his dream, along with his message. He is expressing the power of war, particularly civil war, which can rip apart families, neighbors and the best of friends. The story, unlike many other tragic civil war tales, is not focused on the idealogical difference btw Tok-Chae and Song-Sam. Rather, it is about the human tragedy of the Korean War. Tok-Chae and Song-Sam were ripped apart by the War. Song-Sam, on his return to his village, he finds Tok-Chae and decides to escort him to a Public Peace Police office a few miles away. On the way, he gets flashbacks and talks with Tok-Chae. These things help to change his mind and he frees Tok-Chae. This is symbolized by the two cranes which soared high into the sky. Hwang-Sun Won conveys his message effectively; unification will be achieved and is needed to repair such ties like Tok-Chae and Song-Sam. He is saying that the two cranes will fly together once more.

What does Sun Yat sen have to do with China?

1.sun yat sen was founder of free china

Sun Yat Sen helped take down the Qing Dynasty and then developed the modern People's Republic of China. This gained him the name of "Father of Modern China".

The above answers are both problematic. Sun Yatsen did not found "Free China", he founded the Republic of China, which was a government with rules, regulations, and a Constitution. This earned him the name "Father of Modern China". He made alliances with the Communists in an attempt to prevent the country from falling into chaos, but was certainly not Communist himself and did not support China becoming a Communist State (that eventually did happen long after his death).
