The tang dynasty (introduction) Remember the Han dynasty? Collapsed 220 AD Over the next 350 years more than 30 local dynasties rose & fell! Buddhism gained political influence during this time This continued until the emergence of the Tang dynasty (618-907)

The tang dynasty Expanded empire Extended influence over Korea Empress Wu Strong central government to control the huge empire 2 capitals: Cha’ng-an and Luoyang Revived Confucianism, ending the political influence of Buddhism Also revived the civil service exam Nobility dominated the government Education became more valued Central Asia defeated by Muslim armies in 751 (Battle of Talas) 907: Chinese rebels sacked & burned the capital of Chang-an & murdered the last Tang emperor (a child!) Ladies preparing newly woven silk. Bottom R is Tang era poetry

Talk about how close the Muslim Empire gets to China

The in-between years… Rival warlords divided China into kingdoms Families fought for the Mandate of Heaven until…

The Song dynasty (aka sung dynasty) Never regained territory lost after the Tang Tried to buy peace with northern enemies- annual tributes of silver, tea, silk New capital established at Hangzhou Weak military Confucian government Strong economic development Southern cities prospered from trade with Chinese in the north, nomads in Central Asia, and people in Western Asia & Europe Population reached 100 million (double what it was prior to the Tang!) Marco Polo The Song scroll

Accomplishments of the tang & song Grand Canal extended- could ship goods across China by boat Use of paper money & letters of credit – improved economy! Mechanical clock, acupuncture Advances in math and algebra Land reform- parceled out land to peasant farmers Imported faster ripening rice, doubling the rice crop Population increased Foreign trade flourished Major port cities boomed Poetry, painting blossomed Spread of Buddhism (gained popularity in China, then lost popularity)
