Sui Dynasty ( 581-618 A.D.) The main ruler of the Sui Dynasty was Wendi

What was the Tang provided with?? A good economy, government, military and so much.

Who provided this, the SUI did!!

__//** The Examination System **//__ The examination system is a test that helps them recruit soldiers for the military force and land based militia. The examination system did not come without its flaws. The point of the examination system was to try to eliminate wealthy people being the only class in the government and instead letting people take a extremely hard test and those who pass the test are allowed into government. But the test was so hard that the only way you were going to pass was to have money to pay for an education or a tutor. And guess who has the money? the wealthy. This picture shows a ton of people in one room taking a test, symbolizing people in the Sui Dynasty taking a test to be apart of the Sui Government

**//The Grand Canal//** The Sui Monarchs established imperial military force and a land based militia with a centralized administration that ﻿received civil service recruited through the examination system. Also they started building a water way now known as the famous The Grand Canal. The Grand Canal links rice growing in Yangtze basin in northern china. The 1,000 mile waterway took 5 years to build, tens of thousands of peasants worked on it, half if which died. The Grand Canal also added a sense of protection and reliability in The Sui and following dynasties. This is because before the Grand Canal was established, the only way to travel from North to South China was to travel through the pirate infested Yellow sea. This made a great chance of being attacked and losing goods or even ones life, so by establishing the Grand Canal, the Sui eliminated any need for travel through the Yellow sea. This gave people an extra layer of security. This picture shows China's famous Great Canal

__//** The success in reuniting China **//__ The Sui Monarchs, brought china back together again after four centuries of political fragmentation. once china was one again they established a imperial military force and created the examination system to form a civil service way to recruit This picture shows others being very happy for the success in reuniting China

The Sui dynasty only ruled briefly, from 581 to 618 china was united in unity but they came to rule during hard times, those which ill explain in my rhymes. Two Sui monarchs, established military recruitment, built the great canal to encourage water movement. They ended 4 years of political fragmentation, established a militia, centralized administration, no hot air in the economy, no inflation. But then things started to go down hill, like a skier on a mountain or a toxic waste spill. Cruelty and Oppression, brought the Sui To a halt and eventually an end’n then the dynasty cycle had to change and move, then we see the Tang emerge to try to help and soothe.

During the tang dynasty they achieved a pinnacle of glory, at 756 it starts the story, of the newly emerging dynasty, they conquered Annam, they started territorial expansion, cultural social, and economical advances, But ironically the thing that was hard to see was that the emperor was Confucianism true, but this deferred to civilian over military values. Tangs rulers perfected a highly centralized government, with a complex system and the people were loving it. And if you put any of the Tang’s achievements under the microscope for examination, you will see that the Sui was the root of their inspiriation

So This is where the rap raps up, Sui inspired them and now inspires us, The tang;s civilization would have been cold to the touch without the information, and without the inspiration, and admiration, that set it all in motion, the Sui was the coach’n and leaded the tang to glory and the reason it didn’t bore me, because a picture is worth a thousand words so I painted one with the story you just heard
