This holistic timeline in no way represents all of China’s history. This menu of China’s history is here for individuals who want to learn about China and the Chinese from near the beginning to today.
What I’ve done is provide links in chronological order—or as close as possible—to posts on this site that offer a look at China’s long history and her people. Click on the links [in red] to discover some of China’s historical, cultural and artistic evolution.
If you see a post that you feel is in the wrong time slot, let me know and I will look into it. New links may be added at any time.
This timeline takes up a lot of memory and may load too slowly. That is why I divided the timeline up into five parts. If your system can handle the larger file, click on Timeline Viewed as Single Page. However, if the single page loads too slowly, stick to the five parts and visit one at a time.
