From which year to which year is the ancient history of China?

According to the internationally recognized standard, it should be from 3700 BC) Before the Opium War in 1840, it was all ancient history, 1840-1919 was the period of the democratic revolution, and 1919-1949 was the period of the new democratic revolution, that is, 1840-1949 was China's modern history, and 1949 has been modern history since 1949.

Ancient History: 3700 BC to 1840 (First Opium War) Modern Times: 1840-1940 Modern Times: 1949 to the present Modern history is a history of aggression and resistance.

Ancient history is from the Xia Dynasty in 2200 BC to the First Opium War in 1840 AD. Ancient history is about slave societies and feudal societies, and modern history is about semi-feudal and semi-colonial societies.

The standard of ancient history and modern history is the Opium War, and China began to degenerate from a feudal society to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society; The criterion for dividing modern history from modern history is the May Fourth Movement, which led to China's entry into the New Democratic Revolution; The criterion for dividing modern history and contemporary history is the founding of the People's Republic of China, from which China entered contemporary history and socialist society.

Ancient history covers the period from 221 BC to 1840.

Ji Xuanyuan from the Yellow Emperor tribe.

Also known as Gongsun Xuanyuan.

The period is about 5,000 years old.

Modern archaeology has discovered oracle bone inscriptions from the Shang Dynasty more than 3,350 years ago (1350 BC).

Pottery inscriptions from about 4,000 to 5,000 years ago, and turtle bone inscriptions with the nature of writing from about 5,000 to 7,000 years ago.

Chinese history spans about 4,600 years from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors; Since the Xia Dynasty.

It is about 4100 years old; From the first great unification of China's ** centralized system.

The Qin Dynasty is about 2240 years old.

The history of Chinese civilization has been 5,000 years, starting with the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. If we start from the history of human beings, then the farthest can be pushed back to the Yuanmou people 1.7 million years ago.

From 3700 BC to 1840, the Opium Wars were all antiquity.

China is an ancient country with a glorious civilization. From the day of the creation of the country, China has experienced the Xia Dynasty successively.

Shang Dynasty, Western Zhou Dynasty, Eastern Zhou Dynasty (Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period), Qin Dynasty, Western Han Dynasty, Eastern Han Dynasty, Three Kingdoms, Western Jin Dynasty, Eastern Jin Dynasty Sixteen Kingdoms, Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

Historical periods such as the Liao, Song, Xia, Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties.

Among them, during the Xia, Shang, Western Zhou and Spring and Autumn periods, China experienced the development of slave society. From the Warring States period, feudal society.

Nurtured and formed, the Qin Dynasty established the first ** centralized power in Chinese history.

The Great Unified Feudal Empire.

Characteristics of modern Chinese history.

1. From the perspective of exploration: it is a continuation of modern Western studies, with the characteristics of imitation: before the 80s, both politically and economically, it was mostly imitating the highly centralized political and economic system of the Soviet Union; Since the reform and opening up, it has imitated the business mode and management experience of the West.

2. Judging from the course of exploration, it has the characteristics of twists and turns: Before the reform and opening up, the process of revolution and construction was either surpassed by reckless progress and detachment from reality, or it was interrupted from time to time due to leftist mistakes, which caused the focus of work to be incorrectly shifted, so that economic construction went from rushing forward to being interrupted until the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee.

After that, it got on the right track and always took economic construction as the center.

The division of Chinese history is generally divided from the Opium War of 1840, the period before 1840 is ancient history, and the period after the Opium War is modern history.

The Qing Dynasty officially changed its name from the Later Jin to the Qing Dynasty, and it also existed for 297 years! It was overthrown by the Xinhai Revolution in 1911, and the history of China's ancient feudal dynasties came to an end, of which the Opium War in 1840 became the beginning of modern Chinese history.

The common view of the historians of the past year is that 1840 A.D. is the beginning of modern times in our country, and before that, it was ancient times. The reason for this division is that the Opium War broke out that year, the Manchu court was completely defeated, and had to cede land for reparations, open ports, and passively integrate into the international market, which was a change unseen in thousands of years, and completely changed the nature of traditional society.

Generally speaking, the Opium War of 1840 is defined as the beginning of modern Chinese history, and before that, it is considered antiquity, so 1840 can be regarded as the year of the end of antiquity.

Ancient Chinese history: before 1840 (Sino-British Opium War) (which is also divided into ancient, antiquity, and medieval......Modern: 1840-1949 (founding of the People's Republic of China), which is commonly referred to as the "two halves of society" modern:

Contemporary after 1949: There are different divisions in different fields, for example, the literary community says it was after the May Fourth Movement, and the historiography says it was after 1949 (that is, it is synonymous with modern times).

The division between ancient and modern times is 100 years. The time before 100 years is called ancient, or ancient. The period of less than 100 years is called contemporary, or modern.

According to the characteristics of the times, ancient times are divided into several stages of ancient description, such as modern, medieval, ancient and prehistoric. This definition of time limit is of great significance for the development of modern and future human civilization.

The Opium War of 1840 is generally defined as the beginning of modern Chinese history and the end of ancient history.

Before 1840, it was considered ancient, and after that, it was modern history.

It should be the end of the Qing Dynasty, and the last feudal dynasty was the Qing Dynasty.

Modern history began with the Qing Dynasty. The end of ancient times was the Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.

China has a history of about 5,000 years. If we count from the period of the Yellow Emperor to about 2700 B.C., the history of China is about 4700 years, and if you round it up to the hundreds, it is 5,000 years old. Chinese history refers to the history of China from the opening of Pangu to the 21st century.

China has a long history, about 5,000 years from the mythological era of Pangu, Nuwa, Houyi and so on; It is about 4,600 years from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors; It is about 4,100 years since the Xia Dynasty; It is about 2,200 years from the Qin Dynasty, the first great unified dynasty of China.

As far as the present is concerned, the origin of Chinese civilization should be the Erlitou culture, and its typical site is the Erlitou site of Yanshi in Henan. The Erlitou site is divided into four phases, and the scale of the settlement has become very large since the second phase, with an area of 3 million square meters, and the previous Neolithic period, only the Taosi site has a similar scale (2.8 million square meters), and from the third phase, there are bronze workshops and other handicraft workshops. Erlitou ruins show the characteristics of the city, bronze smelting, royal palace and other civilizations, although there is no writing, but from the perspective of cultural inheritance, Erlitou --- Zhengzhou**--- Yinxu are in the same line, and Yinxu just unearthed the world-famous oracle bone inscription, and it is confirmed that it is the site of the late Shang Dynasty (the capital after Pangeng moved the capital), so the Erlitou culture can be regarded as the Shang culture at least from the third period (if Zhengzhou ** is the capital of Shangtang, Erlitou is the first Shang culture; If not, then Erlitou is the early Shang culture), and the history of China (the history of civilization) should begin here.

If you do the math, the historical era of China may have begun around 1700 BC (according to the latest carbon-14 dating results, the Erlitou site is about 1750 BC and 1530 BC). China was in a prehistoric era (or part of a protohistoric era). Therefore, the history of China is at most 3,700 years, counting from the beginning of the Shang civilization.

Internationally, it is said that Chinese history began with the Shang Dynasty, so it is 3700 years. And if you count the time of the Five Emperors, it is more than 5,000 years. Because in the 600th year of Xia and the 165th year of Yaoshun, the Three Emperors did not pass on the country, so there were about 500 years.

That's about 5,000 years. Greece and Rome are not ancient civilizations, because Greece was really around 1000 BC, later than the four ancient civilizations, and was greatly influenced by Egypt in the early days, and later had its own development, so it is not counted. But because of their contributions to Western culture, they are called classical civilizations.

The other three ancient civilizations began around 3500 BC, 3000 BC, and 2500 BC, and the reason why China is later than them is because historians have discovered that the earliest written records are from the Shang Dynasty. If the city had been built according to the press, China would not have been very late, probably because the written records before the Xia Dynasty have not been handed down, so it was 1700 BC.

Since the Xia Dynasty from 2070 BC to the present, there is a total history of 4092 years.

The official history of China is 3,500 years (only the history recorded by the people at that time), and the so-called four ancient civilizations are not recognized in the world.

I can't remember how many years it has been......

Ancient Chinese history began with the Yuanmou people about 1.7 million years ago and ended before the Opium War in 1840.

The "Yuanmou Man" 1.7 million years ago was the earliest known primitive human in China. Nearly 600,000 years ago, the "Peking people" who lived in the Zhoukoudian area of Beijing were able to walk upright, make and use simple tools, and knew how to use fire. Neolithic sites around 10,000 years ago are all over China.

In the ruins of Hemudu, Yuyao, Zhejiang, and Banpo, Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, six or seven thousand years ago, artificially cultivated rice, millet grains and farming tools were found.

The oldest dynasty, the Xia Dynasty, began in 2070 BC. The central area of the Xia Dynasty, in the western part of present-day Henan Province and the southern part of Shanxi, had reached the north and south of the Yellow River, and began to enter a slave society.

The Shang and Western Zhou dynasties, which followed the Xia, further developed the slavery system. This was followed by the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when the power of the royal family declined and the princes competed for hegemony, which is considered to be a stage of transition from a slave society to a feudal society.
