Is the perfection of Yin Shang society quite perfect?

The social perfection of Yin Shang has been quite complete, whether it is from the site selection and planning of the tribe, the surrounding buildings and environmental protection, all reflect the harmonious human relationship. From the analysis of historical experts, it can be seen that the culture of the Shang Dynasty gradually spread to the surrounding areas, as far as the Yangtze River Valley, and also had a wide impact on the culture of the south.

During the Shang period, natural factors such as environment, water, topography and transportation were taken into account in the establishment of society. During the Yin Shang period, most of them were gathered on both sides of the riverbank, so it was convenient to take water from such a site, and it could also be transported by water, and the irrigation work could also prevent fire. Now archaeology can find that the Shang Dynasty tribe had many city walls and facilities for draining water outward.

In order to protect the living environment, most of the handicraft industries in these cities are located on the edge of the city, and many wells are driven into the soil and water to ensure that the water source is clean. In addition, in order to prevent sediment from mixing into the well water, there is a filtration device.

There are even clear legal provisions for injuries caused by solid waste. In Han Feizi, such content was recorded, which means that the waste should be piled up to the designated location.

In the early Yin Shang society, they relied on conquest to achieve unification, and conquest could only be conquered by force of force for these small external states, rather than subduing people with virtue. At that time, Yin Shang was a large country, which was in stark contrast to the small countries around it. At that time there were only cities, and these small cities were easy to conquer.

In order to perpetuate and consolidate the rule, the only way to do it is to go on and on. As long as the opponent's city is captured, then the opponent will succumb, and by the way, grab some loot and the people to return to the court.

During the Shang Dynasty, there were still many blank territories, and for the Yin Shang Dynasty, there were not enough people to occupy these lands, and the main countermeasure at that time was to eliminate the hostile forces, and then issue an order to let the people in the war zone live.

The Yin Shang were not strictly a unified state, but a confederation centered on the Shang dynasty. According to the available archaeological data, the establishment of towns in the Shang Dynasty took into account environmental conditions, water sources, topography, location, transportation, natural resources and other factors. The location, planning, architecture and environmental protection of these towns reflect a harmonious relationship between people and land.

The progress of agriculture and handicrafts in the Shang Dynasty promoted the development of commodity exchange, and many merchants engaged in long-distance trafficking with oxen carts and boats. Due to the development of agriculture, animal husbandry and handicrafts, bronze smelting and casting reached a very high level, so that the production level of musical instruments leaped forward, and a large number of exquisite and luxurious musical instruments appeared.

It is considered to be very perfect, and the establishment of society in the Yin Shang period had to consider natural factors such as environment, water source, topography and transportation. Whether it is from the site planning of the tribe, the surrounding buildings and environmental protection, it reflects the harmonious human relationship.

That's right, it's quite perfect. Considering natural factors such as environment, water source, topography and transportation, the Yin Shang period has done quite well.

I don't think it's perfect. Pangeng's relocation to Yin was a huge turning point in the history of the Shang Dynasty, which reversed the decline of the Shang Dynasty and embarked on the road of Zhongxing, and there was a political situation of "the people from Ning and the revival of Yin Dao".

During the Shang Dynasty, the requirements for the living environment were still relatively high, and the geographical conditions, topography and transportation were taken into account, and the merchant settlements were generally along the tributaries of the big rivers. Archaeological excavations show that the Shang Dynasty settlements had city walls, moats, and drainage facilities from the inside to the outside. For the people's clothing, food, housing and transportation, they are very thoughtful in all aspects.

It can't be regarded as perfect, at that time, in order to make the rule permanent and consolidated, it could only be carried out non-stop, and the scourge caused by the conquest was not **, let alone there was no time to cultivate and recuperate.

Imperfect, the relationship between large and small countries in the Shang Dynasty was between cities and cities. City-states were easily conquered, and in order to perpetuate their rule, they sometimes had to be frequently conquered.

The Shang Dynasty was the second dynasty in Chinese history, and the first dynasty in China to have direct written records of the same period. After the establishment of the Shang Dynasty, the capital of the Shang Dynasty moved frequently, and it was not until the Shang Dynasty's descendant Pangeng moved to Yin (now Anyang) that it settled down, so the Shang Dynasty was also called "Yin" or "Yin Shang" by later generations. What was the society of the Shang Dynasty more than 3,000 years ago?

The Shang Dynasty was not a complete unified state, but a loose alliance with the Shang Kingdom as the main body. The Shang Dynasty had many Fang States, which lacked an internal connection with the Shang Chao Kingdom, and therefore had a strong autonomy and independence. The relationship between the various Fang states and the Shang dynasty was intricate, with some becoming enemies, some surrendering or rebelling, and others forming alliances.

In fact, the perfection of Yin Shang society will really make people think about it very scary, and many aspects are not available in later dynasties, and they are even a bit of a microcosm of "modern society". During the Shang Dynasty, the construction had to consider the environment, water source, topography, location, transportation, and natural resource factors, and there was a very mature system.

In its heyday, the Shang Dynasty was very strong both economically and forcefully, and it has always maintained a relatively strong position compared with the surrounding Fang States. There were many merchants living along the tributaries of the Great River in the territory of the Shang Dynasty, and the reason why it was chosen along the tributaries of the Great River was that the location was convenient for obtaining water, farming, and water transportation. Archaeologists have found that the Shang Dynasty had drainage facilities for city walls, moats, and settlements from the inside to the outside, which could be regarded as very advanced at that time.

The site selection, planning and construction of settlements in the Shang Dynasty all reflected the harmonious relationship between heaven, earth and man, and at the same time, the Shang Dynasty also had relatively mature knowledge of calendar and phenology, which shows the superiority of its culture.

I don't know much about the society of the Shang Dynasty, and I don't know much about the perfection of the Yin Shang society.

The society of the Shang Dynasty was a slave society, an era that was just beginning to need progress.

Yin Shang society is an era that has just begun, and it still needs to be improved. ，

Daji was only a companion of the king in his later years, and the fall of the Shang Dynasty was in line with the law of dynasty change in feudal society.

The society of the Shang Dynasty was a slave society, and the common people had no status at all.

The degree of perfection of Yin Shang society is indeed very scary.
