The Xia dynasty is described as the

first dynast. This dynasty was

established by Yu The Great. It

belonged to the feudal age about four

thousand years ago. This dynasty ruled

from 2205 and 1767 B.C. Xia’s capital

was Yangchuan. Yangchuan had a

fresh water lake nearby. This helped

poor people living there.

Ming dynasty ruled China from A.D. 1368 to 1644.

This dynasty belonged to the Modern Age. The word

Ming means brilliant in Chinese, and this Dynasty

really was brilliant. It made many great restorations of

old structures including The Great Wall of China, and

The Grand Canal. This dynasty also established The

Forbidden City in Beijing, which is the capital of

Modern China.

Zhu Yuan Zhang founded the Ming.

The Ming dynasty was really progressive in trading

goods with different countries: it was already trading

with the Portuguese by the sixteenth century.

During all of these dynasties important inventions were made,

trade centers were opened, and strong enemies were defeated.

Also important cities and structures such as The Great Wall and

The Grand Canal were built . Many important people were born in

Ancient Chinese dynasties such as Confucius.
