In the past 5000 years, China has created a splendid culture, which was once the center of the world. Unfortunately, due to arrogance and ignorance, we finally fell behind and finally rose after more than a hundred years of humiliation. In the long history of China, how the West views the development of China is actually due to the past national dignity and the policies of the West for more than 100 years. We believe that the West is always full of discrimination against us.

In the early days, there was a saying that the history of China was only over 3,000 years. They did not recognize the dynasties before the Xia Dynasty and denied the hieroglyphics of China. But in fact, if you really have a chance to see foreign history textbooks about China, you will have a different understanding. In American history textbooks, the description of China's history is actually objective, but there are occasional differences, only the differences between the two sides.

As we all know, the West does not recognize the Xia Dynasty in China. In fact, in American history textbooks, the Xia Dynasty is clearly marked, and from the perspective of its territory, it is even larger than the later Shang and Zhou Dynasties. As time goes on, its territory is not easy to determine, especially for the history of China itself, so they count the scope of human activities as the territory of a country, and therefore it will show a situation of smaller and smaller territory.

In fact, last week's territory was far wider than that of Xia and Shang Dynasties, but the Zhou Dynasty implemented the enfeoffment system, and most of them were succeeded by vassal States, so it had a history of hundreds of years in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Of course, it is impossible to be too detailed when introducing foreign textbooks, but the general order of dynasties is correct. In fact, due to the different cognitive habits, there are some differences between the maps of China and China.

For example, the map of the Qin dynasty, after the Qin dynasty unified the six countries, in American textbooks, the territory of the Qin dynasty does not include Fujian, but also includes Jiangxi, Guangxi, South Vietnam and other regions, including the map of the Han dynasty does not include Fujian. I don't know why this place was left out in the cold, but after the Tang Dynasty, the United States brought the map belonging to Tubo into the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty and lacked Guizhou. In addition, it is worth mentioning that from the map of the Tang Dynasty, in American textbooks, there are two different situations in the drawing of China map.

One part is the actual control area, and the other part belongs to the scope of influence. There is no doubt that the scope of influence is much larger than your own territory. In addition, since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it basically belongs to the part of modern history, so the map is also very similar, similar to what we are exposed to now, but slightly different in details. Basically, American history textbooks remain objective in evaluating the history of China.
