The history of China is complex-perhaps more complex than that of other nations. The ethnic groups that compose China go back to prehistoric times, and each group lent its own color to the enormous nation. It is not like a diluted mixture of all its cultures; rather, it is a collage.

China doesn't have a 5, 000 year history. It has a 2,300 year history.

The Top 2 Best Dynasties of China has been skipped off. Tang, The Greatest Dynasty and Han, The First Golden Era of China.
Oh my God the Tang Dynasty was too important to skip.

not only that this video also doesn't mention that the Qing dynasty was a "barbaric" dynasty of Manchu people from the north east and totally skipped Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong plus this video also fails to mention the Qing dynasty by name and also skipped the formation of the Republic of China 1912 and skips directly to PRC foundation in 1949.

Fascinating!
This was a very interesting overview! I think that you hit on a lot of the high points and gave us some interesting places to look further for information.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:28 🇨🇳 The history of China is rich and diverse, marked by dynasties, inventions, and cultural developments. 01:52 📜 The Chinese system of writing began during the Shang dynasty, evolving from pictograms into symbols. 02:50 💡 Qin Shi Huang became China's first emperor after defeating other states, establishing the Qin dynasty. 04:15 🔥 Genghis Khan and his descendants used advanced weaponry, like trebuchets and gunpowder, to conquer parts of China. 08:51 💊 The Opium Wars and the Treaty of Tientsin had a significant impact on China's relations with foreign powers in the 19th century.

You can't see the great wall from space. Yes it is very long but it only has a small width. This is not reflecting good on the level of research that went into this video. On another note I find it quite a bad choice that a video about the history of China would cut out several dynasties and just jump straight to the mongol invasion after discussing the Qin Dynasty. Btw. you just have to google "earth at night" to see lots of (cumulative) human constructions that can be seen from space. Edit: wow and you also just skip from the second opium war to Mao, completely ignoring important parts like the end of imperial rule, the 2. world war and the civil war, Taiwan, etc..

WRONG ! The Great wall cannot be seen from space
there is an amazing amount of information on china
“Jewism”
Excellent presentation, thank you ! Bill P.
bro skipped 1500 years thought nobody would notice
nice short summary of the Chinese history...
Why would you say the great Wall can be see from space, that's such nonsense
Thank you for the very brief summary. It's a country with an amazing and deep rich history. It's also truly sad and abhorrent what European countries, including the USA did to China in modern times.
This is overoveroveroveroversimplified
Telling a 5000 years of history in 11 minutes is worth to feed people of the world some knowledge about China..today China is an ancient country with ancient traditions blend with modern technology...people of the world is yet to see China's next move
Well, the general consensus is that China (as we understand it) is 2,300 years old. An impressive feat certainly. Remains found earlier are evidence of a dynasty but not necessarily Chinese. The China that we know today has assimilated by means of invasion and coercive conquest: Tibet ( invasion and Genocide), inner Mongolia ( Coercive conquest, violence, and genocide), Easy Turkestan ( Coercive Conquest by political means - Genocide and apartheid),. This along with the assimilation of 52 other ethnic minorities today into an authoritarian Fascist state is what is more commonly known as the " PROC". On the whole not a bad introduction though.

Your knowledge of the 5,000 years Chinese history is completely wrong. The fact is, out of the 5,000 years, China had been invaded, conquered and ruled by foreign forces from the north and west of China. Here is the summary: 中國五千年的歷史, 被游牧、游獵民族殖民統治近四千多年,中原農耕民族衹在漢朝和明朝統治中國。統治唐朝的則是漢, 胡混血的一個民族: 夏--西羌游牧民族東進中原建立的殖民王朝 (2070BC-1617BC) 商--北狄游獵民族南下中原建立的殖民王朝 (1617BC-1046BC) 周--羌戎游牧民族東進中原建立的殖民王朝 (1046BC-256BC) 秦--西戎牧馬民族東進中原建立的殖民王朝 (221BC-207BC) *漢--中原農耕民族建立的王朝,漢人、漢族的來源 (202BC-263AD) 隋--鮮卑游獵民族進入中原建立的殖民王朝 (581AD-611AD) 唐--鮮卑游獵民族進入中原建立的殖民王朝 (618AD-975AD) 宋--北方民族建立的王朝 (975AD-1271AD) 元--蒙古游牧民族南下中原建立的殖民王朝 (1271AD-1368AD) *明--中原農耕民族建立的王朝 (1368AD-1644AD) 清--女真游獵民族南下中原建立的殖民王朝 (1644AD-1912AD)
Still don't say where Chinese people come from?. Is it Africa?.
Woow. So many inaccuracies!
Great Wall seen from space? Yah no.
I can do it quicker! There were lots of People born, some died, some grew up, some died in wars, some died of diseases, they all died eventually! How was that , quick enough!

Before the People's Republic of China, the Chinese Dynasty was in a so-called "colonial" state dominated by kings and aristocrats from northern nomadic peoples, not modern Chinese ‘Han Chinese’. Sadly, the Han Chinese, the modern Chinese people, have never had their own Country in their 5,000-year history. (Qin-Xiaoyong(西戎), Han-Dongi(東夷), Tang-Xiānbēi(鮮卑), Song-Baekwal(百越), Yuen-Mogolia, Qing-Manchuria etc.) They're poor peoples who are enslaved under the ruling class, which changes with time. But Fortunately, Mao Zedong, an outstanding figure, succeeded in creating the first national state of Han Chinese people in the wake of the Japanese invasion. In other words the first Han nation was modern China, which was founded in 1949.
0 Credibility after saying "Jewism" and "Muslim." Plus ignored the Han Dynasty.
May God bless each one's life and free them from all evil, may you have happy lives and regardless of difficult times, you may know that God has plans for each one's life, that even the pains of life work together for our good, making us better people, wiser and more appreciative of life, I also wanted you to know that God loves us so much that he gave his only son to suffer and suffer a lot for us and to redeem us from the sin of this world and allow us to have communion with God, if you don't feel well,If you feel depressed, empty, anguished, disturbed or hurt inside you, know that if you open your heart sincerely to God, I believe that He will help you, console you and help you In difficult times, I have felt a lot of pain and He has always helped me and supported me, I thank Him very much for that
Sorry dude; you can't see the Great Wall from space; that's a silly myth.
How can your video skip over a thousand years of history? Where did the Tang and Song dynasties go? It’s like you’re still a slave in the Roman Empire and the next second you become a Lancastrian spearman. Do you only remember your Mongolian Daddy? You don’t even remember the Silk Road? Because the Silk Road inspired your greed and ultimately led to the invasion of the Qing Dynasty. By the way, Genghis Khan also considers himself Chinese.
Whats wrong with the facts in this video
Very vague and questionable.
liar, its 11:33 minutes long. not 11 minutes
The religion is called "islam" a follower of Islam is called as a Muslim
This version of history is chocked full of inaccuracies. For example the great wall can be seen from space; Absolutely not true.
B.C. not bce

"Jewism, Muslim"?!? You mean Judaism, Islam? It's not A.I.; it's A.S. narration. Artificial stupidity
