China has a long history. Among the four major civilizations in the world, China is the only surviving ancient civilization that has survived to this day. Among the four ancient civilizations, the other three civilizations, Babylon, ancient Egypt, and ancient India, have long since disappeared with the wheel of history.
Chinese historians and humanities scholars believe that Chinese history began around 3000 BC in the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and to the present 2000 years, the approximate number is 5,000 years. There is also a saying in the world that there is a written history that is the beginning of civilization, then China is calculated from the oracle bone inscription, then Chinese history will be counted from the Shang Dynasty in 1600 BC, which is only more than 3,600 years old.
The three emperors and five emperors in the history of civilization in China are recorded in historical books such as "Historical Records", but more are myths and legends. However, the descendants of Yan and Huang, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, which China has said since ancient times, are the ancestors of China, and the history passed down by word of mouth is also history. Therefore, the 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization is also well documented. The Yellow Emperor fought Chi You, Shennong's taste of herbs, Fu Xi drilled wood to make fire, Fu Xi created a gossip map, after the Yellow Emperor passed the throne to Emperor Yao, Yao and Chan gave to Shun, Shun and Zen gave to Yu, Dayu not only has a legend to control the water, but also has an actual verification. Moreover, Dayu founded the Xia Dynasty, which became the first dynastic reign. At this time, the Xia Dynasty changed the Zen concession system of the throne to a hereditary system, and began the history of China's hereditary system, which lasted until the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the last feudal dynasty.
Historians divide Chinese history into antiquity, medieval, antiquity, and modern times. The ancient era ranged from the chaotic period to the Spring and Autumn period. The Middle Ages began with the Qin Dynasty and ended with the Tang Dynasty. In ancient times, from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the fall of the Qing Dynasty.
Chinese civilization has a long history. Today, in the 21 st century, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the national self-confidence and national dignity of the Chinese people have been continuously strengthened, the Chinese nation has ushered in rare historical opportunities and challenges, and is taking solid steps toward the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
