Answer:

Zhou dynasty came into power in China after defeating the Shang Dynasty in 1050 BCE.

Explanation:

Zhou Dynasty came into power after winning the Battle of Muye. Zhou Dynasty rules China through the idea of the Mandate of Heaven.

Zhou Dynasty would keep customs and traditions from the Shang Dynasty to show the continuity of the old things to gain trust and maintain peace in the kingdom.

The arts of the Zhou were a repetition of those of the Shang dynasty. Bronze craftsmanship widely seen in various shapes, and decoration in ornaments, jars, etc.
