History

Chinese history goes back for a very long time. The earliest recordings of it (Not video recordings) are way back in 1250 BC! That's insane how long ago that was. Chinese history has a lot of dynasties, if you don't know what dynasties are I'll explain it. There was a pattern to grow and shrink the dynasties that ruled China. It is called the dynastic cycle. Imagine a circle in your head. When a person or group of people most commonly families take the “Mandate Of Heaven” that dynasty is overthrown. And it passes on to the oldest son in that family.
