Many things changed and new goods, even human ones, were traded across the globe from 1450 to 1914. But while many things changed some stayed the same. Two changes were the shift in world dominance from East Asia to Western Europe and China closing itself off from the world. Two continuities are that China remained a major exporter of several invaluable goods and that China stuck to its agricultural roots and never industrialized, even while the world around them was doing so. Even though China was in a rapidly changing time, it still tried to stay to its roots.
In the end you still get the same framework as you would from reading, but you also get to see how it physically affects them. Also when the “owners” are telling the angry tenants that the bank or the “monster” owns the land and that there’s nothing they can do about it you can really see how much the owners don’t care about these farmers in the movie. You can see how it doesn’t phase them at all it’s just another day at the office, so to speak, but what they don’t realize is that
These different empires that were being built at the time created fluctuations in trade. The Silk Road changed from being on a small scale to expanding throughout Eurasia; then little interaction occurring between Asia and Europe. More trade in the Ming Dynasty followed after and then the Indian Ocean Trade becoming an alternative way of trade to the Silk Road.

The change in trade patterns was caused by the strength of the different empires along the Silk Road.

Early Imperial China INTRODUCTION Go to http://www.ancientcivilisations.co.uk/home_set.html After the lengthy introduction, click on the small globe at the bottom of the page. This will bring up a list of “A-Z Cultures.” Choose “Imperial China.” Read the introduction on the left hand side of the page: o What reforms did Qin Shihuangdi bring to China?

The earliest Chinatowns tended to be on the west coast while the newer ones are being built in lesser profile cities as opportunities shift. As the migration trends toward returning to China, many Chinatowns, especially smaller ones like the one in Washington, D.C., begin to lose their initial mission. Today, many urban Chinatowns in the United States are becoming visitor centers rather than serving as the ethnic enclaves they once were, although the rapidly growing satellite New York City Chinatowns in the boroughs of Queens and Brooklyn on Long Island represent a stark exception to this trend in North America, fueled by continuing robust levels of large-scale immigration from mainland China specifically directed toward New York. When searching the web, we come across tour services to local Chinatowns where visitors are taken on a “Chinese experience.” The Asian culture is seen as exotic, something that should be glassed in a museum, something unusual, something worth “experiencing.” Using chopsticks in a Chinese restaurant may seem like the respectable manner to adopt, but it can certainly be seen as a form of entertainment as if familiarizing oneself with another ethnicity’s customs is meant to be amusing.

For shopping, department stores and malls were easily accessible. Feeling brave I started exploring the different expressways and learning their direction as to North, South, East and West. Something I had never seen or driven on before were the over passes stacked on top of each other, like the one in Dallas, Texas they call the high five. Last, but not least, I began sightseeing, like the sculptured horses of Las Colinas, Irving, where President Kennedy was shot and visiting South Fork where the sitcom Dallas was filmed. In conclusion, trying to stay organized helped me to be stress free with my move across the nation from North to South.
Most of other communities should understand the life and communication of the desert community and stop judging or stereotyping by its cover. Being out of any communities is so hard to understand what is happening inside it.
