12. The Han dynasty is oftentimes regarded as one of the most successful of all the Chinese dynasties. The practices and traditions during this dynasty helped set the tone for the imperial rule that governed China for over 2000 years. Like all the other dynasties, religion played a great role in shaping the rule of those in power. Just like the arts and the technologies developed during that era, the influences of the Han Dynasty religions spread long after the dynasty has ended. Several forms of religion dominated China during the Han period.

13. Written records of the history of China can be found from as early as 1200 BC under the Shang dynasty (c. 1700–1046 BC).[1] Ancient historical texts such as the Records of the Grand Historian (ca. 100 BC) and the Bamboo Annals describe a Xia dynasty (c. 2100– 1700 BC), which had no system of writing on a durable medium, before the Shang.[1][2] The Yellow River is said to be the cradle of Chinese civilization, although cultures originated at various regional centers along both the Yellow River and the Yangtze River valleys millennia ago in the Neolithic era. With thousands of years of continuous history, China is one of the world's oldest civilizations.[3] Much of Chinese culture, literature and philosophy further developed during the Zhou dynasty (1045–256 BC). The Zhou dynasty began to bow to external and internal pressures in the 8th century BC, and the kingdom eventually broke apart into smaller states, beginning in the Spring and Autumn period and reaching full expression in the Warring States period. This is one of multiple periods of failed statehood in Chinese history, the most recent being the Chinese Civil War that started in 1927
