China: 5,000 Years of the World's Oldest Civilization
How did one civilization survive for 5,000 years while every other ancient empire faded away? This is the epic story of China, the world's oldest living civilization, from its very first beginnings on the Yellow River to the birth of modern China in 1949. Journey through the entire sweep of Chinese history: the oracle bones of the Shang, the oldest writing still in use today, the wisdom of Confucius, the first emperor and his famous Terracotta Army, and the mighty Great Wall. Discover the Silk Road of the Han, the golden age of the Tang, the incredible inventions of the Song, the Forbidden City of the Ming, and Admiral Zheng He's legendary treasure fleets that reached Africa. See how China rose, fell, and rose again through every dynasty, absorbing empires and always remaining itself. This is the complete 5,000-year story of the world's greatest surviving civilization. #China #ChineseHistory #History #aireconstruction China: 5,000 Years of the World's Oldest Civilization: 00:00 China's 5,000-Year Story 01:10 The Yellow River: Cradle of Civilization 02:35 The Shang Dynasty & the Oracle Bones 04:20 The Zhou Dynasty & the Mandate of Heaven 05:55 Confucius and the Axial Age 07:40 The First Emperor & the Terracotta Army 10:00 The Han Dynasty & the Silk Road 12:10 The Tang Dynasty: China's Golden Age 14:20 The Song Dynasty & Its Great Inventions 16:15 The Mongols & Kublai Khan 17:45 The Ming Dynasty & the Forbidden City 19:45 The Qing Dynasty & the Last Empire 21:40 The Rise of Modern China Are you ready to rediscover the dusty pages of the past and forgotten engravings through the power of modern technology?
