Han Dynasty and Mauryan/Gupta Dynasties

Han Dynasty (China) vs. Mauryan/Gupta Dynasties (India) The Han Dynasty lasted from 206 BCE 220 BCE, and was in China. The Mauryan and Gupta Dynasty lasted from 322 BCE 500 CE, and were in India. The Mauryan Dynasty stop by 185 BCE. The Gupta Dynasty started in 320 CE. In my essay I am way out to be comparing and contrasting the 3 dynastys (2 of them as 1), and their insure through religion, workmanship, male dominance, and how they send away. The Han Dynasty controlled their empire through Confucianism. One of the emperors, Han Wudi, effected an Imperial University.Confucianism was the official course of study. If you treasured to become part of the organization you had to feel graduated from the University. Any person from an affectionate class could go to the University. Going to the University actually could bump you up to a better fond class. Most of the emperors of the Han Dynasty ruled through Confucians teachings Ren, Li, and Xiao. While the Gupta Dynasty went th rough a some religions Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. They mostly used Buddhism and Jainism to control the empire. Both religions had many restraints on what you could and could not do.Jainism didnt believe that women could go through the spiritual process unless they were reborn male. I dont understand why in memoir women were always looked down upon, and werent allowed to do what males can do. They had different religions, further the same purpose. Chinas one main trade was silk. Everyone wanted Chinas silk because it was the best plain and simple. Even if you tried to transcript their stitching, it wasnt as good. China was extremely secretive on how they created silk, and do items out of it. They were the precisely culture at the time who knew how to take fretting of the silk worms.Even if removedrs were able to sneak one out of the country, the worm died soon because they didnt know the proper way to take of it. China barely traded with villages outside their wall. I ndia on the other hand traded across the Persian Gulf, Red Sea, and the Mediterranean. Their trade schedule depended on the monsoon winds. They traded from Asia to Persia. If you were born a Vaishyas you were a merchant/ trader. The social class you were born into decided what you did for a living. Male dominance the only subject you can ever get me extremely wound up about.If I had lived during the time period of male dominance I would gather in been a very disobedient woman. In China according to Confucius, women were only around to serve their husbands and take care of the children. They were also not given(p) a proper education and most of them couldnt read or write. Their duty was to be a good little house wife. In India arranged marriage was common. Fathers paid another family to have their son marry his daughter. The daughter could be eight years old, piece of music the man she was married to was twenty. I think thats just unseasonable and disgusting. The Han Dynasty unc ivilised because of a rebellion.The people were tired of the tax raises. They didnt same that they were forced to help build the Great Wall. They definitely didnt ilk the property policies having their land easily taken from them and given to someone richer. The Mauryan Dynasty fell because they kept devaluing the currency making everything too expensive and it cause inflation. The Gupta Dynasty fell because it was continuously invaded by the White Huns. It disintegrated along regional fault lines. afterward the Gupta Dynasty fell smaller kingdoms were created and dominated India until the Mughal Empire.
