During the period of 600-1450, China rose as the most influential state in East Asia. This is because, and because of this, many other states borrowed heavily from Chinese culture. Japan and Southeast Asia were two of those that borrowed a lot from China. They both borrowed rituals and the religions, Buddhism and Confucianism from China.

In China, based on the Five Relationships, women were expected to be absolutely obedient to their husbands. Since the Classical period, the role of women in China, until recent times, did not experience much change, for people of the society were influenced by the Confucian teachings and values. One of the biggest changes in the Chinese culture was Buddhism, which was introduced to China from India through the Silk Roads. Buddhism threatened the unity of China and it arrived after the fall of the Han Dynasty, and people didn't fully assimilate it into their culture until almost a century later. The collapse of the Han Dynasty helped Daoism and Buddhism
CAC China Between the years 500 and 1750, China’s involvement in trade and decisions regarding global trade greatly affected their economy. China has always participated in local trade amongst Chinese societies, however new technologies brought change in the trading system and the people the Chinese traded with. There were also time periods of isolation from other countries that were established in order to have less western influence. Transitions with new rulers, advancements in technologies, and expansion of their empire caused for Chinese economic growth or continuance. Many foreign invaders tried to conquer the empires of China for thousands of years, one of which was actually successful.
The Chinese Open Door Policy was a major event in recent Chinese history, because The Open Door Policy that was argued for by John Hay’s Open Door Notes, advocated an impartial system of taxation to set up a system of equal trading rights, and prevented European nations from carving China into separate colonies. Although the Open Door Notes was not written with Chinese interests at heart, it greatly benefited China in the long run. The Open Door Notes was a very influential document in Chinese history. Written at the turn of the century by Secretary of State, John Hay, the Open Door Notes was a letter that was sent to all nations with interests in China. After acquiring the Philippines, the United States gained interest in the vast resources of Asia.
Compare and Contrast- India & China Imperial Administration Thesis While both Han China & Gupta India had imperial administration there were some similarities and differences between the two civilizations. Similarities include, both of the civilizations flourished during this classical period of their history in various ways. Differences include, Han China had a bigger role in political theory than Gupta India. Unlike Han China, Gupta India did not place as much emphasis on political theory. The importance of politics in China can be shown because, in order to live a good life you need to be part of the society, politics in India did not develop because of the structures implanted in the caste system, (regional political units were often highlighted).

Why did it take until 1928 for Nationalist control of China . The most obvious outcome of the 1911 Revolution would have been for a democratic government led by the nationalists to emerge, after all one of the main aims of the Revolution had been to introduce democracy to China. The Nationalists were also the party with the most support, and should have prospered, but they didn’t. Initially it seemed that in the aftermath of the Revolution the Nationalists would gain control when Sun Yat-Sen was installed as president, but the presence of Yuan Shikai complicated matters. The military strength he possessed was far greater than the Nationalists so when he made a bid for the presidency, Sun felt that he had to step aside.
Sure, this is a simple example, but the academic system is usually based upon reaching a solution that someone else (the textbook, your teacher, the government, etc) wants you to reach. Further, the extremely competitive nature of academia in China has parents encouraging this behavior, even outside the structures of academia (no, I am not suggesting that 2 + 2 does not equal 4, nor that you should tell your teacher so to be unique, just that conformity can travel beyond the walls of a school). Academic stress happens in America too, I just feel like it is more ubiquitous in China. What about in business? This too has some benefits.
