Silk Road

4 months because it is far away

First of all, there were many geographical issues. The Silk Road spanned many miles, some of which was desert. There were also mountains blocking the way in some portions. Second, because the merchants who traveled the Silk Road carried goods and other valuables, thieves would often ambush and attack travelers and take all they had. Lastly, because of all the time it took to traverse the Silk Road, fresh crops could not be taken. As a result of all this, not many merchants made the trip and of those that did only a select few actually found the venture profitable. I hope this information proves satisfactionary to readers.

They ate lots of lamb and dairy products. They didn't eat pork because Islam's and Muslims don't eat pork. They also ate horse meat and mutton (sheep meat). They also have some exotic stuff like naad and qurut.

what effects did the silk

have on the weastern world

Silk, Ivory, Jade, Glass, Spices (Black Pepper, Curry, Cloves), cloths, oils (not vegetable oil), weapons, and Gold were some of the things they traded.

For safety. The 'silk road' was notorious for being patrolled by thieves and bandits. Merchants travelling in single file hide their numbers. It's harder to tell how many people are travelling together if they walk behind each other, as the footprints of the person in front are obscured by the next person.

Probably everyone who got the chance. Silk was extremely expensive in those days, even silk thread went at enormous prices. It's the reason why traders always travelled in big groups for mutual protection and even then often took armed guards along.

The Silk Road by the way wasn't a real single road. It was the collective name for the various east-west trajectories that were commonly taken by silk, spices and other traders between China and India and Europe.

The Silk Route was a series of routes covering more than 4,000 miles.

Some Roman goods that were traded on the Silk Road were gold coins, blass and glazes, grapevines, and alfalfa. The Romans wanted the silk from China for their gold, silver, and bronze coins and their precious gems.

The Silk Road was started by the Han dynasty.

The strongest physical evidence of the spread of Buddha along the Silk Road is the Bamiyan Buddha's. The Bamiyan Buddha's were created in the 4th and 5th centuries CE and stood until they were destroyed by the Taliban March 2, 2001.
