Many of the inventions attributed to the West were actually first invented in China and later modified or refined by Western powers after the invention made its way from China. Important discoveries such as paper, moveable type printing, gunpowder, and the mechanical clock all have had immense influence on modern life and originated in China. It is important to understand ourselves by looking to the past and seeing where these inventions came from and how they made their way to common use by us. This is especially true in an ever increasing global outlook to realize that other cultures have had a profound effect upon our own.

Tang and song
During the Tang (618-907) and Song (960-1279) dynasties, China experienced a golden age of prosperity, technological innovation, and cultural achievement. Advancements in agriculture, science, and trade allowed China to become the most advanced and wealthy country in the world during this period. Key Chinese inventions such as printing, gunpowder, and the compass were developed and later changed world history.
Ancient China
- Ancient Chinese civilizations first developed along major rivers like the Yellow River and Yangtze River, which deposited rich soil for agriculture. The Shang Dynasty ruled from around 1600 BC to 1100 BC and was the first Chinese dynasty to be confirmed by historical records. Religion influenced Shang culture through rituals for ancestors, oracle bones connected to early writing, and bronzework. The Zhou Dynasty overthrew the Shang around 1100 BC and introduced new concepts like the Mandate of Heaven to justify dynastic changes. Population and agriculture grew under the Zhou while new philosophies like Confucianism and Daoism emerged during the later Zhou period.
Sui Dynasty
The Sui Dynasty was established in 581 CE after Yang Jian seized the throne from the Northern Zhou dynasty and unified China under his rule. During its peak, the Sui Dynasty achieved many accomplishments like constructing the Grand Canal and standardizing coinage and measurements. However, Emperor Yang Guang led a lavish lifestyle and launched costly wars that overtaxed peasants, causing famine and rebellion. By 618 CE, discontent was widespread and Li Yuan seized control, establishing the Tang Dynasty and ending the Sui Dynasty.

However, the new republic still faced immense challenges, including foreign encroachment and domestic unrest.

Gregorian chant originated as monophonic sacred music in the Catholic Church. Over centuries, church music became more complex with the addition of multiple voice parts and instruments. Secular music also grew out of folk traditions blending with religious music. Opera developed from madrigals and sacred music traditions, combining drama, poetry, and polyphonic vocal music. Monteverdi composed the first successful operas in the early 1600s, helping make opera a popular art form. Opera traditions included Italian opera seria, German Singspiel, and incorporated elements of oratorio, mass, and hymns. Mozart was a highly influential composer of the Classical period who wrote operas and other works that are still performed today.

Chinas First Empire - Qin Dynasty
The Qin Dynasty which emerged victorious over the 6 other major Kingdoms during “The Warring States” period in China was the first empire that unified what is now roughly modern China. More importantly, it standardized much of the concepts that affected daily life for its citizens, such as money, written language, roads, weights, and measures, and created the basis for the future Chinese role of emperors and the organization of the political structure that continued in its basic form until 1911. It also is credited with some of the greatest public works projects in human history such as the beginning of the Great Wall of China, canal building and irrigation projects, mass production techniques, the Terracotta Warriors of Xian, and a massive mausoleum project for the emperor’s body after death.
Rise and Fall of Byzantium
The Byzantine Empire lasted more than a thousand years and kept Roman politics, art, architecture, engineering, learning and military tactics alive. It acted as a buffer between the Muslim controlled Middle East and Christian Europe throughout the Dark Ages, and also allowed for the safe keeping of knowledge that helped incubate the Renaissance. Furthermore, it directly contributed to the emergence of the Crusades, which influenced Middle East/European politics and Christian/Muslim interactions through the present day.
Mongol's Yuan Dynasty vs. Japan's Samurai
The Yuan Dynasty of China was an era in which China was ruled by a foreign power, the Mongols. Despite common perceptions of what the Mongols were like, art, literature, drama, and architectural marvels were abundant during their rule. Many of China’s greatest literary works, dramatic plays, and the Forbidden City were all constructs of the Yuan Dynasty. Also, their attempted invasions of Japan brought significant changes in the Japanese society and its view of outsiders. It is important for students to having a working knowledge of how feudal Japan was organized compared to European feudalism, the role of the Samurai and the code they lived by that endured with the soldiers who fought in World War II, and unique culture that survived after the Mongol attacks.
