Similarities Between Chinese And Ancient China

When comparing Han China and Classical Rome, many political, geographical, and religious similarities can be found, though many differences are also prevalent. Though Roman and Han political structures both emphasized bureaucracies, they came to them quite differently. Through copious amounts of expansion, both societies spread culture and earned money, though expansion was eventually their downfalls. Their religions differed immensely, with Rome emphasizing polytheism and Han China focusing on Confucianism. The differences and similarities between these two civilizations are to be discussed in this essay.

There are some big differnces in the religious beliefs and practices in Egypt and China. Two similarites between the two countries are their gods and afterlife. A major difference is the ways that any individual can get to their afterlife.

When comparing their religious views, Ancient South Asia and China were very different. In Ancient South Asia, they held that trees and animals were sacred because of their associations with vital forces. In comparison, Ancient Chinese people believed in their ancestor’s presence and they believed in their continuing influence. Family heads, in Ancient China, presided over the rites of honoring their ancestor’s spirits.

One of the biggest reasons why these two civilizations had these differences is due to their geography. The Egyptians had easy access to large stones that they could bring in to their country and use them to erect such monumental

This can be seen when looking at the geography of where these civilizations originated. Just like the other three societies, Chinese civilization grew among the Huang He River, or the Yellow River. The river supplied water for the Chinese to be able to practice agriculture. The river also gave them a mode of transportation to move goods from place to place, just like the Harappans. Another characteristic of the Chinese that is similar to the Harappans was the fact that we do not know much about them because they did not leave any records behind. Life along the Yellow River was also similar to life along the Nile. The people of both civilizations built ditches and canals in the rivers in order to use them for transportation and irrigation. They both used water to feed their people, and cattle as they raised them along the river, and to use for their crops, as both rivers were fertile. Unlike the Nile, the Yellow River brought both positive and negative consequences. The Yellow River was also given another name by its people, the River of Sorrows. This was because the Yellow River did not flood regularly like the Nile, it was irregular. Some years the Yellow River would not flood at all, and in other cases it would flood and bring devastation to its people. The Egyptians luckily did not experience this with the Nile River, instead they celebrated it and called it their giver of

The Han and the Yuan Dynasties share some similarities, but also some differences. First I will be talking about the similarities that both Dynasties shared. First the Han dynasty shared some native trait while the Yuan Dynasty had foreign traits. The Han Dynasty lasted over 100 years and had numerous leaders to lead. On the other Hand the Yuan dynasty only lasted a generation and then started to wear out over the years. Han being a new culture created a new philosophy for a new dynasty starting out was big. Usually dynasties just passed down traditions and they followed it, but for the Han that wasn't the case. The yuan dynasty did follow the traditions and they picked up cultures traits from chinese tribes. They shared laws, Gods,

In comparing Ancient Egypt and modern day Americas, I found a few similarities and differences in their every day lifestyles. Things like religion, government, social class, writing, and their job specializations. It was surprising to me to find out that the ancient Egyptians way of leaving was somewhat like ours. Of course there are heavier differences, but still they were very modern for their times. Also I am in strong belief that we learned many things that are in our culture today from Ancient Egypt.

Classical Athens and Han China shared major similarities and differences. Han China was roughly four hundred eighty times bigger than Classical Athens in land mass. Han China believed in Buddhism, and Classical Athens believed in a religion of multiple complex gods, they even paid tribute to the gods. One of the best reasons classical Athens is different from Han China is because of their different forms of government. Athens believed in democratic government while Han China believed in an Imperial form of government. The other reason that they’re different from each other is because of the physical distance between the two empires. The distance between the two is roughly 7000 km and they pretty much had no influence over each other, because of the humongous distance (Doc 1).

Ancient China and ancient India are both important and interesting ancient civilizations. They are alike and unlike in many ways. Some significant ways in which ancient India and China are similar and different are religion, art, economics, politics, and social structure.

This is because of Egypt’s much more advanced social system and stable government while China had unfair treatment of women and a messy dynastic system that favored the king being overthrown. By using these systems, Ancient Egypt was able to create a more successful civilization than that of Ancient

One of the main similarities between the Egyptian gods and Israelite God is the way they worshipped them. Both peoples sacrificed to their god. The Egyptians sacrificed kittens and cattle, and the Israelites sacrificed lambs and cattle. The sacrifices were made to cleanse the people of their sins. Another form of worship was songs. The Egyptians sung songs like, “Exalted art thou on thy throne, O Osiris! Thou hast heard fair things, O Osiris! Thy strength is vigorous, O Osiris!” to their gods. Similarly, the Israelites sang to their God, “I will sing to the Lord! He has done great things. The Lord is my strength. He saves me, and I sing songs of praise to him.” Similarly, the Egyptians and the Israelites worshipped their gods with sacrifices and songs.

    Earlier this week we focused on ancient eastern China during the Han Dynasty and the east asian philosophies that arose during this time period. We reviewed three great asian philosophers, Confucius, Lao Tzu, and Buddha. In class we also picked from a list of quotes from these three philosophers a quote they said that really resonated with us and wrote a descriptive essay on it and shared it in class for extra credit.

There are two civilizations that were established in “Before Christ” (B.C.) out of many, they were Greece and China. Greece was established around 2000 B.C. by the Mycenaean and China was established around the 21st century B.C. which was the Xia Dynasty. Each of these civilizations have their similarities and differences. Three of the major similarities each of these cities have are government, army, and culture, even though they have that in common when you go into full detail they have a lot of differences too. In this paper you will have a better understanding on how these two civilizations are alike and unlike.

The Ancient Egyptian people were a resourceful civilization that lived their lives to prepare for the afterlife. After thousands of years have past the art and architecture left behind by this civilization tell stories about the amazing preparations for their afterlife. I feel the grand and time-consuming effort that went into building these impressive art and architecture works, show that the drive and passion the Egyptian people have compared to people that live in modern times. In those times before modern machinery had been invented the Egyptian people had built everything with their bare hands and simple tools to aid them. In modern times we have various tools and computers to help us complete the project quickly and efficiently, giving modern people a huge
