Chinese history is generally
divided into dynasties or
periods during which
particular family or group
of people reigned.
Chinese states were unified
into a large empire with a
central government.
The Chinese empire lasted
for over two thousand
years surviving periods of
internal turmoil, attacks
from outside invaders and
the rise and fall of
numerous dynasties.
The poet T’ao Ch’ien lived
during the period known
as the Six Dynasties (220
A.D – 581 A.D), one of the
most tumultuous eras in the
Chinese History.
Chinese
Dynasties
SHANGDYNASTY1700-1050 BC
The first Chinese dynasty that left
historical records, the loosely
feudal Shang, settled along the
Yellow River in eastern China
from the 17th to the 11th century
BC.
SHANGDYNASTY1700-1050 BC
The oracle bone script of the
Shang Dynasty represents the
oldest form of Chinese writing
yet found, and is a direct
ancestor of modern Chinese
characters.
SHANGDYNASTY1700-1050 BC
The Shang were conquered by
the Chou, who ruled between the
12th and 5th centuries BC, until its
centralized authority was slowly
eroded by feudal warlords.
Chou Dynasty (1045-255 BC)
Their dynasty lasted for about 800 years.
The great literary works of philosophy
and religion that became the basis for
Chinese religious and social belief stem
from what is called the Spring and
Autumn Period (770-476) and the Warring
States Period (475-221).
Chou Dynasty (1045-255 BC)
Taoism, Confucian literature, and other
prominent religious and philosophical
schools all emerged during these periods.
Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)
The Warring States period
ended in 221 BC, after the state
of Qin conquered the other six
kingdoms and established the
first unified Chinese state.
Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)
Qin Shi Huang, the emperor of
Qin, proclaimed himself the
"First Emperor" (始皇帝) and
imposed reforms throughout
China, notably the forced
standardization of the Chinese
language, measurements,
length of cart axles, and
currency.
Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)
The Qin Dynasty lasted only
fifteen years, falling soon after
Qin Shi Huang's death, as its
harsh legalist and authoritarian
policies led to widespread
rebellion.
Han Dynasty
(206 BC – 220 AD)
Han Dynasty
(206 BC – 220 AD)
The subsequent Han Dynasty
ruled China between 206 BC and
220 AD, and created a lasting Han
cultural identity among its
populace that has endured to the
present day.
Han Dynasty
(206 BC – 220 AD)
The Han Dynasty expanded the
empire's territory considerably
with military campaigns reaching
Korea, Vietnam, Mongolia and
Central Asia, and also helped
establish the Silk Road in Central
Asia.
Han Dynasty
(206 BC – 220 AD)
Han China gradually became the
largest economy of the ancient
world. At the beginning of the
era, Confucianism was revived.
Confucian texts were rewritten
and republished.
Han Dynasty
(206 BC – 220 AD)
The resulting ideology was the official
ideology of the Han Dynasty and
influenced political thinking afterwards.
The era’s major contributions were
historical texts and scientific works.
T’ang Dynasty
(618-907)
T’ang Dynasty
(618-907)
The T’ang Dynasty had a big empire
that benefited from trade with the west
along the Silk Road, battled with the
Tibetan Empire, and experienced the
growing influence of organized
Buddhist religions.
T’ang Dynasty
(618-907)
This era’s main contribution to Chinese
literature was in the poetry of Dufu, Li
Bai and many other poets. Dufu and Li
Bai are often thought of as China’s
greatest poets.
Sung Dynasty (960-1279)
Sung Dynasty (960-1279)
 Military technology greatly advanced. They traded little
with the west due to the presence of warring Muslim
states on the old trade routes.
 There wasn’t territorial expansion, but the empire was
continuously attacked by nomadic tribes and countries
around them.
 So the era is divided into two eras called the Northern
Sung (960-1127) and Southern Sung (1127-1279) eras.
Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)
Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)
 The Chinese rebelled against the Mongols,
and the Ming Dynasty era began about 1368.
 One of the four great classics called Journey
to the West about a monk going to India was
written during this time of isolation.
 Novels were the era’s main contribution.
Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)
Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)
 The Mongols established the very rich
Yuan Dynasty.
 The Mongols were nomadic people
who herded cattle north of the Tang
Empire and wandered over a large
area fighting on horseback.
Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)
 It was a big empire with high technology, a
big population and a big army.
 It was an era of some historically renowned
dramatic playwrights and novelists who
wrote in vernacular language.
In the 19th century, various rebellions
and wars took place which caused the
end of the dynastic rules.

TRADITION

the wedding theme of
China. It signifies
love, joy and
prosperity and is
used in variety of
ways in Chinese
wedding traditions.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
The bride's wedding
gown is often red,

homes are decorated
in red on the
wedding day.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
Before the Chinese
Wedding Day
A Chinese bride
traditionally goes
into seclusion
with her closest
friends. This
Chinese custom
gives the bride-
to-be some time to
symbolically mourn
the loss of her
friends and
family.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
Some time before the
couple are married, the
groom’s family carries
wedding gifts in red
baskets and boxes to the
bride’s house.
One of the basket contain
“uang susu” or “milk
money”. Others will
contain personal things
for the bride, so that on
her wedding day all of
her personal belongings
will be in the groom’s
house.
Chinese Wedding Traditions
The bride takes the
gifts to another
room where they are
sorted through.
Three days before
the wedding day,
women from the
bride’s family
reciprocate, bearing
gifts– including
some returns in red
wrapping to the
grooms family.

Chinese food
• Chinese cuisine includes styles originating from
the diverse regions of China, as well as from
Chinese people in other parts of the world. The
history of Chinese cuisine in China stretches
back for thousands of years and has changed
from period to period and in each region
according to climate, imperial fashions, and
local preferences. Over time, techniques and
ingredients from the cuisines of other cultures
were integrated into the cuisine of the Chinese
people due both to imperial expansion and
from the trade with nearby regions in pre-
modern times, and from Europe and the New
World in the modern period.
• Over time, techniques and
ingredients from the cuisines of
other cultures were integrated into
the cuisine of the Chinese people
due both to imperial expansion and
from the trade with nearby regions
in pre-modern times, and from
Europe and the New World in the
modern period.
• Styles and tastes also varied by class,
region, and ethnic background. This
led to an unparalleled range of
ingredients, techniques, dishes and
eating styles in what could be called
Chinese food, leading Chinese to
pride themselves on eating a wide
variety of foods while remaining true
to the spirit and traditions of Chinese
food culture.
The Chinese Language

main dialects, Mandarin ( 官 話 ),
Cantonese (廣州話, 廣府話), Hakka (
客家話), Wu (吳語), Min (閩語), Xiang

variety of Mandarin based on the
speech in the capital Beijing is the
official national language of mainland
China and is termed Pŭtōnghuà,

and overseas Chinese communities is
Cantonese. Amongst the official

Taiwanese, and Hakka (Fig. 1).
Chinese alphabet
• There are and have been several
Chinese alphabets, that is pre-existing
alphabets adapted to write down the
Chinese language. However, the
standard Chinese writing system uses a
non-alphabetic script with an alphabet
for supplementary use.[1] There is no
original alphabet native to China. China
has its Pinyin system though sometimes
the term is used anyway to refer to
logographic Chinese characters
(sinograms). It is more appropriately
used, though, for phonemic
transcriptions such as pinyin.
• Chinese Currency – Renminbi (RMB)
• Chinese yuan, also known as Renminbi, is used
throughout in mainland China, while in Hong Kong and
Macau, Hong Kong dollar and pataca are respectively

People's Bank of China in denominations of one, two,
five, ten, twenty, fifty, and one hundred yuan. The jiao
and fen coins are both issued in ones, twos, and fives.

The higher education sector has growth as well.
China is seeking to improve the quality of
education through a major effort at curriculum
reform. China has increased the proportion of its
college-age population in higher education to
over 20 percent now from 1.4 percent in 1978
• China has a consistent teacher development system. Teaching
has historically been and remains today a highly respected
profession in China. Teachers have strong preparation in their
subject matter and prospective teachers spend a great deal of
time observing the classrooms of experienced teachers, often in

employed in school, there is a system of induction and
continuous professional development in which groups of
teachers work together with master teachers on lesson plans
