China:Its History and Culture 214-285

In this last section of China's history, after many things that occurred in China's land, religion, country, and government, changes are still being made to this day, as well as the rest of the world. After the many revolutions, China enters a reform era, where there were economic and social changes, political change, and eventually changes made into science and technology. There are still changes made into China's geography, such as Tiananmen square. Throughout time, China has changed a lot, and has influenced the world largely also. China has changed in economics, politics, culture and religion, and many more that was influenced by Europe and other countries. The environment changed, and China's relationship with other countries grew, such as with the United States.

"In imperial times religious customs and practices were a powerful source of social cohesion and local identity."

After reading this quote, it reminded me about Othello, where religion in society showed who one was and if they were to be praised, allied, and despised.
