Tang and Song China and Commercial growth
Objective: Explain tang and song china and commercial growth, distinguish their meanings, and apply them to a described case.
Tang and Song China: Tang and Song eras saw major developments in governance, commerce, and culture. Commercial growth: Markets and production expanded differently across regions and periods. Interpret these ideas within the institutions, places, and period being studied. Distinguish the definition from evidence that a particular event occurred. A teaching scenario illustrates an idea; it is not an authenticated historical document or proof of a real event. Application: A chronology does not merge the two dynasties. This most directly illustrates tang and song china. A city shows increased specialized exchange. This most directly illustrates commercial growth.
