Today`s lesson was on Ancient China`s Hierarchy and Dynasty. If you don`t know what these words are a Hierarchy is a system of people ranked one above another. For instances in Ancient China the highest person ranked would be a emperor or King. Dynasty is when one family rules over country for a long period of time.
As you can see I have pasted a picture of an Ancient Chinese Hierarchy.
The hierarchy works like this. The ruler in China is and Emperor which means a sovereign ruler of an empire. Ranked second would be the King and Governor. The male ruler which is a King, his job is to rule over an independent state.

A governors Judy is to lead ta town or religion. Third in the hierarchy is the State Officials plus Nobles and Scholars. A noble is a person showing excellent personal qualities or and high moral principles. The second least important people are the peasants. The peasants are like us people who can afford food etc. Lastly there are the slaves, soldiers, Merchants, and Artisans. These are the the people who maybe in poverty or have very little money. Or they work for someone higher them themselves on the hierarchy.
BC to around 1600 BC. Then the Shang Chinese Dynasty took control. They are still debating whether Xia Dynasty did exist. Or was it just a Chinese legend. How do we know about this? Xia is recorded in ancient Chinese writing. What makes it the first Chinese Dynasty? Xia Dynasty, the king was chosen to be king because of ability. Xia Dynasty began when the kingdom was passed down to relatives. Xia Dynasty they have many different emperors, for instances Kongjia is the son of Bujiang and order number 14.
