Current Chinese Economy and Society

A little something about China's Economy and Society.

Economic Evolution

Early Chinese Trade

Much of China's economy today has been affected by the early trade and farming. In the mid seventh century, the Silk Road became of great importance. The contact to Europe made the route not only a route for trade, but also a route for information and outside influence.

Changing Society

With every war between the states and between almost every dynasty, came war. Many lives were lost each time which meant the economy, and population, dropped. Just like any other country, China had to deal with the aftermath of war, and rebuild.
