Was the Song Dynasty indirectly due to its overdeveloped economy leading to its demise?

The economy of the Song Dynasty had many problems. Ostensibly, the economy of the Song Dynasty was overdeveloped. In fact, the economy of the Song Dynasty was deformed.

The handicraft industry and ceramics industry in the city are very well developed. At that time, Chinese porcelain and various handicrafts were sold all over the world. However, agriculture during the Song Dynasty was not well developed.

Everyone knows that the south is originally the land of fish and rice. But because of the annexation of land. As a result, many farmers have been displaced and uprooted from their homes.

There are two ways out for these people. Either become bandits and rob, such as Song Jiang, a Liangshan hero, chose the way of resistance of occupying the mountain as the king.

The unemployed peasants, who could not occupy the mountains as kings, had no choice but to go to the cities to engage in handicraft production. For example, men could be engaged in ceramic production, women could be engaged in textiles, and many women were engaged in silk weaving at that time.

So on the surface, the cities of the Song Dynasty were very developed, but there were many poor citizens hidden. On the surface, it looks prosperous, but it is more polarized. In the end, many people could only occupy the mountain as the king, and eventually became the heroes of Liangshan.

Therefore, we have to look at the economy of the Song Dynasty in a comprehensive way. We cannot simply evaluate the economy of the Song Dynasty from the superficial prosperity, and think that the economy of the Song Dynasty was very developed, which is a relatively one-sided view.

There were many reasons for the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty.

It is related to the abnormal development of the economy, and it is even more related to the national policy of emphasizing literature over military force implemented by the rulers of the Song Dynasty. After Song Taizu released the military power with a cup of wine. The generals were not trusted by the emperor.

The civilian-bureaucratic clique became the largest interest group in the state, and this clique almost monopolized the political, military, and economic lifeblood of the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty actually used civilian officials to lead troops. As a result, the phenomenon that the Song Dynasty army had no combat effectiveness was very common.

Therefore, the fundamental reason for the demise of the Song Dynasty is that it did not attach importance to the military, the construction of the army, and the selection and appointment of generals. In the end, the Mongol army was too strong, and when the Southern Song Dynasty encountered such an army, it was also a change unseen in a thousand years.

For the first time, the Song Dynasty encountered such a strong opponent, and the Southern Song Dynasty was a regime in a remote corner.

Therefore, the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty was also the result of the accumulation of various factors. It is not possible to explain the reasons for the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty from the perspective of economy alone.

I think so, because the overdevelopment has allowed it to relax a certain vigilance, which hastened its demise.

No. The Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, which led to being bullied by the outside world, coupled with the incompetence of the rulers, which made the border people miserable, and it was a matter of time before they perished.

No, this is because the court at that time was weak and powerless, ** only cared about pleasure, the army was vain, and it was powerless to resist the north.

1.Unified political system and strong centralization: During this period, the imperial court implemented a unified political system and established a strong centralization, which made the country stable, thereby promoting economic prosperity and development.

2.Development of water conservancy and land: In order to ensure food production and transportation, a large number of water conservancy projects have been built, wasteland has been reclaimed, and agricultural economy has been developed to improve agricultural production efficiency.

3.Foreign trade development: With Western countries, Southeast Asian countries to increase exchanges, with their own technology and cultural traditions, the development of textile, shipbuilding, ceramics and other industries, to promote the development of commodity economy.

4.Technological progress: Inheriting the technical tradition of the Tang Dynasty, and on this basis, there were innovations, such as the wave wheel, ox ear irrigation, waterwheel, silk weaving and imitation car, acupuncture and moxibustion, etc., which played an important role in promoting economic production.

5.Commercial prosperity: Due to the stability of the country, commercial centers were gradually formed in Hangzhou, Bianjing and other places, which promoted the prosperity of the commercial economy. Commercial transport also led to the development of handicraft industries such as papermaking, tea, and sugar.

To sum up, the reasons for the economic development of the Song Dynasty were manifold, including the political system, resource advantages, foreign trade market and innovation. <>

1. The main reasons for the economic development of the Song Dynasty1. The society is relatively stableThe founding emperor of the Song Dynasty released military power with a glass of wine, emphasized literature, not martial arts, and paid attention to social and economic development.

2. Developed culture and scientific and technological progress3. Enlightened economic policyThe Song Dynasty was the only dynasty in history that did not suppress commerce.

4. The economic and cultural center of gravity has shifted southwardThe Song Dynasty attached great importance to the development of the south, and it was the period when the development was the greatest in history.

The society is relatively stable, creating external conditions for economic development; At the same time, a large number of immigrants from the north, such as the Yongjia Rebellion in the last years of the Western Jin Dynasty and the Jingkang Rebellion in the late Northern Song Dynasty, led to a large number of people moving south, bringing advanced production methods, promoting the development of science and technology in the Southern Min Defense, and improving labor productivity.

2. The performance of economic development in the Song Dynasty1. The economic prosperity of the Song Dynasty was unprecedented, with major developments in agriculture, printing, papermaking, silk weaving, and porcelain.

2. Outstanding achievements in the navigation industry and shipbuilding industry, developed overseas, and trade with more than 50 countries in the South Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, Europe and other regions.

3. The large-scale development of the south in the Song Dynasty contributed to the southward shift of the economic center.

During the Song Dynasty, the foreign country was mainly navigation, because there was the Liao State in the north, and the destruction of the Jin State was blocked early, so the northern land was blocked, and the West Fiber Xiaoque was blocked by the Tubo State and the Western Regions, and the Silk Road was broken.

During the Song Dynasty, the economy was very developed, and the navigation industry was the most advanced in the world. As long as it is carried out by land and sea and South Asian countries, southern European countries and South China Sea countries, the profits are very lucrative.

The Song Dynasty and others generally did not like to use force, but used peaceful means and fair prices to engage with others.

Overview: The Song Dynasty (960-1279) was a dynasty in Chinese history that inherited five dynasties and ten kingdoms under the Qiyuan Dynasty, divided into two stages of the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, with a total of 18 emperors and 319 years of reign.

Country name: Zhao Kuangyin because of its origin in Songzhou, so the country name is called "Shengshan Song", because the royal family surname Zhao, so it is also called Zhao Song, and because the five virtues are always said, the Song Dynasty is the fire virtue, so it is also called "Fire Song", "Yan Song", and is called the Great Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty set its capital at Kaifeng, which was called Tokyo.

After gradually unifying China, it was called the Northern Song Dynasty by later generations because its territory reached the north of the Yellow River relative to the Southern Song Dynasty.

It's not capitalism at all The so-called development of the Song Dynasty is just a boast of the present.
