Why is the wheel of history moving forward?
There was an interview with passers-by in the subway: Which dynasty do you think was the most prosperous in China's history? For Xi 'an's street interview, a group of passers-by certainly answered the Tang Dynasty. The reporter wants to explain how the Tang Dynasty flourished, but this is not in line with the objective reality. If she wants to ask me, I'm sure the answer is the Qing Dynasty. History always moves forward. I don't believe that the Tang Dynasty was more prosperous than the Qing Dynasty. From the establishment of the Tang Dynasty in 6 18 to the entry of the Qing army in 6 1644, more than a thousand years have passed. Has the development of China really regressed? Although the Book of Songs says that the prosperous period of the Tang Dynasty was ruled by Zhenguan, with simple folk customs and no closed doors at night, no matter the population size, grain output or GDP at that time, it can certainly not be compared with later generations. In modern times, with cameras and photos, look at Beijing in the Qing Dynasty and even the Forbidden City photographed by foreigners in those years. Those emperors and ministers look like that. When it rains, the streets are still muddy Why not close the door at night? After evening, there was no one in the street. Which one is not closed? Ordinary people go hungry in the harvest year.

The vertical ratio of history is always moving forward. Even if there are intermittent big battles or even two world wars, it will always surpass the previous ones after the recovery. Today's question is the same. Looking ahead, people always have hope, and everything will be fine ~
