The representative inventions of ancient China are the four great inventions.
1. Gunpowder played a huge role in smashing the Western knightly class and establishing a regime belonging to the bourgeoisie;
2. The introduction of papermaking and printing promoted the development of the Western Renaissance and Enlightenment;
3. The guide is decisive for the great geographical discoveries of the 15th century.
4. In addition, such as the contribution of arithmetic and pi to mathematics in nine chapters; Compendium of Materia Medica, Four Diagnoses** for the Perfection of Medicine; The contribution of geokinetic instruments, observations of solar and lunar eclipses to astronomy, and so on. It can be said that ancient Chinese science and technology played a decisive role in the development of science and technology in the early days of the world, and China was the center of science and technology in the ancient world.

Ancient Egyptian civilization, ancient Sumerian civilization, ancient Liangzhu civilization, Chinese civilization, Minoan civilization, ancient Shu civilization, ancient Indian civilization, Mycenaean civilization, etc.
1. Ancient Egyptian civilization originated in the Nile Valley of Africa, also known as ancient Egyptian civilization, and its history can also be traced back to 4500 BC, and it was officially formed around 4000 BC.
2. The ancient Sumerian civilization originated in the basin of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Asia, also known as the Mesopotamian civilization. The Lianghe civilization is also the oldest civilization in history, with its beginnings dating back to 4200 BC and its formal formation around 3500 BC.
3. The ancient Liangzhu civilization originated in the Yangtze River basin of China and was formed in the late Hemudu period around 4000 BC. Around 2700 BC, it entered the stage of civilization, and its sphere of influence spread to the entire lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and competed with the Chinese civilization in the southeastern region of the Central Plains, and was later annexed by the Chinese civilization.

1. The glorious civilization created by China has brought the nations of East Asia (Southeast Asia) into an era of highly civilized civilization and directly shaped the East Asian civilization circle. This is a civilization that has been able to compete with the European and American civilizations that created modern civilization until the modern era, and can have a great influence and contribution to mankind.
2. The exemplary power of Chinese civilization has brought a positive impact on Western Europe when it "learns from the East and moves west", and it is not blind that Europe before and after the Enlightenment once highly admired Chinese civilization. Although it is not possible to let the Western European civilization system develop in the inheritance like Greece and Rome, the crystallization of wisdom and example from the Far East have also given Western Europeans a rare reference and enlightenment. For example, the British took inspiration from the imperial examination system and pioneered the modern civil service.
3. The creativity of the Chinese nation has contributed many important technological and inventive achievements to the development of human civilization. Led by the "Four Great Inventions", but far more than the Four Great Inventions (see the "Introduction to the 100 Major Inventions of Ancient China" linked below).In addition, there are quite a few people who question the "four great inventions", but some facts are beyond doubt:
China invented papermaking and spread it to the world; The gunpowder invented in China had an impact on the world through firearms; China's compass has made great contributions to the progress of navigation technology around the world; Printing may not have been transmitted to Western Europe from China, but China and East Asian civilizations were the first to benefit from the invention of printing! )
4. China's highly developed agricultural civilization, as the pinnacle of the era of agricultural civilization, its wealth and prosperity were the initial driving force of geographical discoveries, and finding a new route to the East was the greatest goal of navigators and explorers in that era.
5. China's highly developed agricultural civilization has developed a high level of agriculture and handicrafts, and has become the world's production center. The Silk Road not only delivered exquisite and luxurious and practical goods to the world, but also connected the entire Eurasian continent (including North Africa), and played a major role in the exchange and development of human civilization, and China is almost the heart of this arterial system! This has been going on for almost two thousand years!

Our nation is a great and wise nation. In ancient history, the Chinese people created brilliant scientific and technological and cultural achievements represented by the four major inventions, and made significant contributions to human civilization.
Natural science statistics show that the proportion of China's major scientific and technological achievements (projects) in the world's major science and technology is 57 4 before the 6th century BC; 50 from the 6th century BC to the 1st century BC; 62 from the 1st century BC to 400 BC; 71 from 401 to 1000; 58 from 1001 to 1500.
Before the Ming Dynasty, there were more than 300 important inventions and great scientific and technological achievements in the world, of which 175 were invented by us Chinese. From the third century B.C. to the fifteenth century, China's scientific and technological inventions left Europe in the dust, and many projects preceded Europe by hundreds or even millennia.

Not "human".
It's "people" because.
Ancient civilizations were created by people among the human race.
Other species in the human race are incapable of creating civilization.
Our modern scientific and technological civilization is the basic technology created by the ancients, and the technology is optimized and upgraded.
The civilization of the ancients created.
Just say the main thing.
I won't mention anything else.
But it also includes related technological civilizations.
Food civilization. It is said that the people live on food.
It is necessary for humans or animals to sustain life.
The emergence of food civilization.
It ended the dependence of primitive humans on natural resources as the only food.
Medicine. In the eco-ecological world.
The elements of life forms.
They are all interdependents that encroach on each other and help each other.
Bacteria at the same time to help digestion and absorption.
It will also help the cycle of life.
It will lead to diseases of the living body.
It is necessary to have a solution to the pain.
So. The emergence of medical civilization.
It is very critical to survival.
Patrilineal reproduction inheritance.
This is the key point at which man brings humanity to a civilized society.
The birth of this technological civilization.
Pushed humanity to the starting point of civilized society.
The above three scientific and technological civilizations.
All of them are science and engineering in biology.
It has built a solid foundation for the survival and development of human society.
It is the threshold for human beings to move from primitive society to civilized society.
Warp and weft lines. The latitude and longitude line is the high-level embodiment of man's primitive scientific and technological civilization based on primitive astronomy.
It created the concrete concept of space-time and the concept of a circle on the basis of primitive mathematics.
It has expanded an indispensable carrying tool for the in-depth and extensive development of human society.
So. The civilization of the ancients is the embodiment of a certain ability to think and consciousness.
The most convincing of these.
It was the birth of "pictographic abstraction" writing.
It is the only way to confirm the civilization of ancient people.
It's a pity. Modern Chinese fonts are incomplete.
And most modern human beings do not have the ability to pictographically abstract consciousness.

The aspects of studying, governing the country and being a human being have had a profound impact on later generations.
According to archaeologists, in addition to the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", many ancient Chinese mathematical works and even calendars mention the arithmetic of negative numbers and negative numbers. Qin Jiushao of the Southern Song Dynasty recorded in the book "Nine Chapters of Mathematics" that the result as a constant term of a higher-order equation is "often negative". In the book "Detailed Explanation of the Nine Chapters of Algorithm", Yang Hui changed "benefit", "from", "division" and "elimination" to "addition" and "subtraction" respectively, which more clearly clarified the relationship between positive and negative and addition and subtraction. >>>More
