Empress Wu was an absolute boss.
It’s very small compared to now
Why do all these old maps of China have that skinny neck over into Central Asia
Man, this map’s wild! Crazy to think how huge and advanced Tang China was.
Lol, gotta say, looking at this map rn.
Wow, China had connections with Western Asia for over a thousand years!
This Chinese dynasty was like modern America. Its officials and military included Japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese, northern nomads, Central Asian ethnic groups, and more. Passing the national examinations held by the government allowed one to hold important official positions. Persian and Arab merchants were present in the coastal areas. The empire was also home to a wide variety of religions. Neighboring countries sent students and ambassadors to this empire to learn about its system and culture. It was very different from China today.
Recently read about how her patronage to Buddhism because they wouldn’t do gender discrimination like the Confucianist.
Wu Zetian is of my favorite Civilization leaders. 👍👍
KILL THE TIBETANS, REPEL THE BARBARIANS AND TAME THE BEAST OF SIN. ONLY THEN SHALL TANG BE TRULY PROSPEROUS.
Technically, Wu Zetian renamed the empire to Zhou Dynasty, only her successor reverted the name change.
Pretty sure she never officially crowned herself empress?
Wrong map.
There was Balhae in the Manchuria.
Balhae was established in 698 CE by Dae jo-yeoung, former Goguryeo general. It was consisted mainly Goguryeo refugees(Koreans), Malgal and Khitan.
