Teaching The Song Dynasty

The Song Dynasty

The first two emperors of the Song Dynasty ruled for many years in a row. This stability gave the dynasty the start it needed to become one of the most successful in China’s history. Similar to other times in Chinese history, culture and the economy blossomed when all of China was brought under one ruler. This reduced conflict and supported trade.
