What is the the Impact and Significance of the great wall of china?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

its was very significant

Explanation:

There are two ways to consider the significance of the Great Wall of China. The first is to consider the significance it played for each dynasty or emperor and how it impacted their power during the period of their rule. The second is to consider the significance of the Great Wall of China as a symbol to, and of ,the Chinese people, and the whole world, as an incredible feat of engineering and construction.

A section of the Great Wall of China

null

While the primary purpose of the Great Wall throughout most of its construction was defensive, during the Qing dynasty, the Great Wall became more meaningful as a symbol of Chinese culture than as an actual wall of fortification. First, the Great Wall was a symbol of Chinese strength - this society had built a 3,000-mile-long, 50-foot-high, stone wall. Such a feat is not for the faint of heart.

Second, it became a psychological wall - showing the importance to the Chinese people and the rest of the world, of China is a sovereign, independent, culture and nation. In a way, the Great Wall represents a blockade against Western ideas and culture, something many Chinese leaders and citizens feel is just as much of a threat now as the rival tribes in north China were in 300 BCE.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

both roman empire and the roman republic had periods of instability and definitely caused their demise. they all lasted for the same amount of time. it will be difficult to ascertain which one is successful than the other. if we consider the extent of the roman empire and how it continued from byzantium this was after the collapsing of western empire then we will say that the empire was more successful than the republic.

roman republic came into conflict with the phoenicians after it controlled the italian peninsula which sooner spread to the mediterranean. roman won in the three punic wars and those who fought in the war were forced to abandon their farms and homes which were disrepair and the cost had been expensive. they lost their right to vote and sold all their firms to wealthy citizens. the result of it all was a civil war and later they became slave led by spartacus and it ended with private armies which were generally arising. among them was gaius julius caesar.

republic ruled for short time by triumvirate whereby sooner they collapsed and empire did not last more than the republic but their territorial gains were considered extensive while republic limited itself to mediterranean and peninsula.
