Ancient China Quiz
Although it is one of the world’s largest singular nations, China was not always ruled by one political entity. It began as a collection of tribal states just like most other countries on Earth. How did the scattered early societies of China eventually become the massive juggernaut of Asian politics we know today?
Well, a lot of that was thanks to war. Conquest has been a major part of China’s history as it has been pretty much everywhere else in the world. However, there is something to be said about how far removed the efforts of rulers were from Ancient China’s people. They generally lived in peace, developing their cultural and religious beliefs while regional lords were just down the lane clubbing each other for more land.
This trait has remained fairly uniform across China’s history. The people of this nation have proven adaptable and able to carry on life even when the world around them burned. Although that is not the entire reason to study Chinese history, it is certainly a testament to humanity’s strength and desire for peace.
Another critical reason to learn Chinese history is how outlandish and downright funny it often is. Multiple of China’s ancient rulers were temperamental man-children who would do things like rename their vanquished rivals to “doo-doo head” or something to that effect.
As much as to test, this quiz is meant to inform. So, we hope you come out of it knowing something new.
