Five thousand years is only a rough figure, and the time division is probably from 3000 BC to more than 2000 years after AD. "Xia Shang" is not a positional noun here, but refers to ancient and modern meanings. It refers to the history of China from the Five Emperors era of more than 2000 BC to about 4000 years but less than 5000 years now.

China's 5,000 years, starting from the epoch-making of the Chinese ancestor Pangu, has witnessed the glory and vicissitudes of the three emperors and five emperors, the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Three Kingdoms, the Western Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Liao, the Jin, the Yuan, the Taiming, the Qing, the Republic of China and People's Republic of China (PRC)-5,000 years.

In this long history of 5,000 years, the Chinese nation has never stopped struggling, and many great historical figures have emerged from generation to generation.

Oral statement:

Up and down 5,000 years is a kind of spoken language, which is the abbreviation of "China's classic folklore and national quintessence historical story".

From Lin Handa and Cao Yunian's Five Thousand Years Up and Down, we know that the first chapter is enduring folk stories, such as "Pangu opened the sky" and "Huangdi fought against Chiyou", and then there are written historical stories, which objectively list the most influential people and events from ancient times to the present, as well as their great inventions, discoveries and contributions.
