Han Dynasty Achievements

The Han dynasty ruled in China for over 400 years.

Economy

There were many achievements done by the Han dynasty.

In agriculture, Irrigation and water conservation projects were made. Farm tools were used to plough the land, and planting abilities were also improved so that one part of the field could be seeded in one day.

Industry

Efficiency was improved in the material industry. Looms were used by many people, which meant that people didn't have to weave by hand. Then later on, smelting was done and steel was made.

Arts

Literature began with the invention of paper, and art also eventually began with the creation of porcelain and the loom.

In art, the methods developed in making porcelain were so outstanding that the rank is similar with porcelain formed today. From excavated locations, relics continue to be dug that reveal the outstanding abilities of the Ancient Chinese culture.

The earliest mathematical works were also done by the Han Dynasty. And also, Astronomy was recorded in vast detail. The Han dynasty was also the first to record the solar system.

Culture

Starting from Emperor Wu's reign, Confucianism became the main ideal trait used for governing and managing. Confucianism became the viewpoint of almost all emperors in the Han Dynasty.
