Amsco AP World History 1.1 Latest 2023 Already Passed Song Dynasty ✔✔Replaced the Tang in 960 and ruled for three centuries with a prosperous reign under which the arts flourished. Bureaucracy ✔✔China's strength was partially the result of its imperial bureaucracy through which elected officials carried out the empire's policies. Metiocracy and the Civil Service Exam ✔✔One of the Song Dynasties' great achievements was the expansion of educational opportunities as someone who scored well on the Civil Service Exam could get a good job in the bureaucracy. This Chinese bure aucracy was known as metiocracy. Negative of Metiocracy ✔✔It grew so large that by the end of the Song Dynasty, the bureaucracy was a weakness as the cost of running the government had grown extremely high. Grand Canal ✔✔After being built by the Sui Dyna sty, the Song Dynasty expanded the canal to over 30,000 miles which allowed China to become the most populous trading center in the world. Gunpowder ✔✔Though gunpowder had been invented in earlier dynasties, the Song Dynasty made the first guns, which later spread to the rest of Eurasia along the Silk Roads. Champa Rice ✔✔a fast -ripening and drought -resistant strain of rice from the Champa K ingdom in present -day Vietnam that greatly expanded agricultural production in China allowing for two harvests a year in some cases. This in combination with new agricultural techniques allowed for rapid population growth. Manufacturing and Trade ✔✔Indust rial production soured thanks to the discovery of coal which enabled greater production of cast iron. After it was learned how to take carbon out of iron to make steel, steel was used to reinforce structures and make items or tools like agricultural equipm ent. Proto -industrialization ✔✔When rural workers make more goods than they can sell. This relied on home -based or community -based production using simple equipment, unlike industrialization. Artisians ✔✔Skilled craftworkers that produced steel and other products in widely dispersed smelting facilities under the supervision of the imperial government.
