The first chapter gives us the story of what Hongli was like as a child and how he won the favor of the Emperor.

With the conclusion of the Arrow War (1860), China realized that her position was challenged by new forces from the West. Her supreme power was shattered, her material resources were limited and her territories were exposed to foreign aggression. Moreover, China at the same time suffered from government disintegration, financial chaos, corruption, natural disasters and peasant revolts. Some conscientious officials came to realize immediate measures had to be taken to strengthen the country and to adjust her to the modern world. Therefore a series of reform movements were carried out for the sake of internal re-construction and national defense.

China is definitely on the top of my list of countries I could only dream to visit. There is so much that I know I can learn if given the opportunity to visit such a great country. Even today, China is home to the greatest inventions and works in the world. They are considered to be much more advanced in technology and products than the rest of the world. We have many things today in this world that is all because of Chinese discoveries and inventions. From spices to material to gun powder and paper making, we have inventors of ancient China to thank. Gun powder, printing, paper making, the compass, porcelain, silk, tea and medicine are some of the

To start with, I learned that one out of five people are Chinese, with the most spoken language being Mandarin Chinese. China is about the size of the United States. However, in China they have four times the amount of people living in this area, many living on the eastern side. This causes a lot of pushing and shoving when walking around such a crowded area. While many people in the United States would get irritated by this, the Chinese do not take it personal and are accustomed to the streets being this way. Many Chinese people are very friendly and welcoming to tourists around the area. However, many of their tourists are Chinese people because they want to educate themselves more about their culture.

I believe one of the most interesting sections in this exhibit would have to be Qianlong's support of many different religions. Not only did he push himself to excel in every aspect of ruling such as traveling all over the realm and reviewing everything, but he also found time to give his support to many different religions that his people decided to take part in. I was surpirsed to see various religions, some that had originiated in China and several from other countries as well. The exhibit mentioned these different religions; Tibetan Buddhism, Manchu Shamanism, Daoism, Han Buddhism, Christianity and Islam. I found it most interesting that he was not only tolerant of other religions, but he was actively involved with them and many times acted

It is said that during the Song Dynasty (960-1127 AD) the Hakka military brought the Fan tzi kung fu system into the Fujian region. Fan tzi (Tumbling or Eight-Flash Boxing) is recognized by its compact, short hand striking methods for which many southern systems are well known.

Evaluating works of art, is essentially making sense of the art in the best way. Along the River During the Qingming Festival is a gem of ingenuity and realism in Chinese painting, while the contextual evaluation of the work reveals the factional strife and social contradictions during Song Dynasty. On the other hand, Pietà, as Titian’s valedictory work with a memorial focus at his grave, engages the most expressive possibilities. And the expressive evaluation of Pietà looks into the details of Titian’s “late style” of darkly ambiguous expressiveness. The contextual evaluation of Along the River During the Qingming Festival by Zhang Zeduan and the expressive evaluation of Pietà by Titian provide insights of the society full of social contradictions that Zhang lived in and of Titian’s view of life and death.

Geoffrey Chaucer makes an interesting case in The Miller's Tale. He makes readers wonder if all the characters got what they deserved. Did John deserve to break both his arms and lose his wife? Did Nicholas deserve to get a blisstered bum? Did Absolon deserve to be farted on? He uses humor and lust to make a mockery of The Knight's Tale told before The Miller's Tale. A noble tale followed by a vulgar tale.

According to Chalfant (2016), “the naval base is expected to feature weapons stores, ship and helicopter maintenance facilities and possibly a small contingent of Chinese marines or special forces.” The location does not come as a surprise as China has had a longstanding relationship with Africa throughout the years regarding resources.

The Qing Dynasty, like all the Chinese Dynasties, began with an expectation of success. The Zhou Dynasty found such success within the “100 schools of thought”, while the Qin found success within trade and exploration which in the end, unified China (Russ). However, the Qing Dynasty found a different way to make their mark with the development of the Chinese Dictionary, forming Banner systems and population increase. Nevertheless, while all of the Dynasties strived for success, they ended with the ultimate failure; by not obtaining the mandate of Heaven. Throughout the history of the region many Dynasties attempted to push China in a positive, powerful position, yet none
