I became famous for broadcasting my life as a social animal to different dynasties
Chapter 128 The Rise of a Great Power
"The fourth one is Guo Jia from the Han Dynasty."
Cao Cao was overjoyed: "It's Fengxiao."
Guo Jia bowed to Zhou Jinyu and asked, "I saw in the past that in the later period, our dynasty in the Central Plains began to decline. So while we were declining, were those neighboring countries rising? How did they rise?"
Zhou Jinyu admired in his heart: He is truly worthy of being Cao Cao's best counselor!
"Yes, when our late dynasty closed its doors to the outside world, the Western world began to develop rapidly and surpassed us."
Zhou Jinyu searched out the documentary "The Rise of Great Powers".
The dynasties were excited and great powers rose!
[Most historians believe that around 1500 AD was an important watershed in human history. From that time on, human history can be called true world history! ]
[Before this, humans lived in isolation on several separate continents. No one on any continent knew for sure whether the earth was square or round.]
【And everyone who lives on land thinks he lives at the center of the world. 】
As soon as these words came out, all the dynasties couldn't help but blush. Was the knowledge they had always believed to be so narrow?
Looking at this map, they are in a very small part indeed.
Also, although they had vaguely known from looking at the sky before that the land they lived on was not the round earth as they had imagined, it was actually a sphere!
A ball like the moon!
The people don't quite understand.
"Ball? How come the ground beneath our feet is a ball?"
"Yeah, I can't tell no matter how hard I try."
"Does this mean that we can meet each other no matter where we go?"
"That's true, but many people in our Central Plains haven't completed the journey. It's not like we have the convenient transportation that we have in later generations."
People who love stars and celestial beings were very excited. It turned out that the land they lived on was as round as the moon they saw!
So does the place where they live also look like a sphere when viewed from the moon?
If we think further ahead, are the other stars also spheres?
What's on it?
There was a flash of the French Revolution in the opening credits, and the lifeless Qianlong sat up in shock. This was the revolution that overthrew Louis XVI!
Yongyan also saw it. He really wanted to see what this revolution was all about, but he also felt a faint fear in his heart...
Why can’t such a skylight be viewed only by the emperor?
【Around 1500 AD, China was under the rule of the Ming Dynasty. Zheng He's seven voyages to the West were not for the purpose of expanding trade but for promoting the emperor's virtue and power. After Zheng He's death, the Chinese disappeared from the ocean.】
Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked: So it was from this period that the entire Ming Dynasty began to lag behind other countries!
Other countries rose one after another, but only the Ming Dynasty began to decline...
This decline was the reason why the Ming Dynasty stopped interacting with the outside world and became self-contained!
Zhu Di, who had become the emperor, was instantly covered in cold sweat and was about to open up trade!
Only trade can increase exchanges between countries and help us understand the progress of the world!
Qianlong shouted, "See? It's the Ming Dynasty's fault! The decline of the entire Central Plains dynasty started from the Ming Dynasty! Don't put the blame on the Qing Dynasty for everything!!"
The palace maid hurriedly lowered her head and closed her mouth tightly.
Yong Yan also hung his head and said nothing. The Ming Dynasty began to decline, and by the time of the Qing Dynasty came, it was probably an even more terrible decline.
Otherwise, how could there be the humiliation of being bullied in the later period...
Kublai Khan looked at him with disdain: Waste!
Zhao Kuangyin also wanted to call him waste, but when he thought about himself, he swallowed the word waste silently.
Li Shimin sighed: The world is really big...
Cao Cao pondered: The ocean! So the key is the ocean!
Sun Quan was surprised: Ocean! Who can compare with us when it comes to using ships?
Why bother fighting Liu Bei and Cao Cao? Just go and conquer those barbarians!
[…The national competition triggered by the great geographical discoveries opened the historical curtain of mutual contact, mutual attention, and mutual confrontation and struggle between different civilizations! ]
National competition! They are interconnected, watching each other, but also confronting and fighting each other! Yongyan was sweating profusely when he saw this. These did not exist in the Qing Dynasty!
This means that all countries are rising, but only the Qing Dynasty is still intoxicated in its dream of being the Celestial Empire!
Zhu Di couldn't sit still anymore. Exchange, right? Trade, right? Competition, right?
Do it, do it all!
[Incredibly, it was not the economic and cultural center of Europe at the time that opened this chapter of human history, but two small countries located in the southwest corner of the European continent: Portugal and Spain.]
Guo Jia's eyes sparkled: This is the huge benefit of seizing the opportunity!
Even a small country can rise rapidly because of this!
[500 years ago, they successively became the hegemons that dominated the world. Their sphere of influence covered the continents of Europe, Asia, Africa, and America.]
[They conquered the oceans and dominated the world for more than 100 years! ]
Dominate the world!
A fire suddenly burned in Ying Zheng's heart. It turned out that conquering the ocean would mean dominating the world!
My vision is still narrow. Think about what Miss Zhou's fiancé said, it is not impossible. If the land route is blocked, we can go by sea.
This world is nothing, I want the whole world!
Li Si was such a shrewd man that he saw Ying Zheng's ambition at a glance.
He said carefully: "Your Majesty, the most urgent task is to recuperate, pacify the remnants of the six kingdoms in the country, and develop the economy. Only when Qin becomes stronger can it prosper for a long time."
Ying Zheng calmed down and nodded. Indeed, the most urgent task was to consolidate the rule in the country.
Liu Bang also wanted to dominate the world! What a domineering word!
But he didn't say anything and just glanced at Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang could not hide his excitement: the world is so vast!
How did a country that dominated the world for 100 years rise?
Liu Che was thinking that the world is so big, even if they could conquer it, how would they manage such a huge area?
And since it's a small country, there shouldn't be so many people.
Won’t the locals rebel again after being conquered?
Sima Yan was very anxious, not for any other reason, but because why his Jin Dynasty was not included when it came time to recruit people?
Is his Jin Dynasty so insignificant?
Yang Jian was also anxious and felt that his dynasty was insignificant among all the dynasties. Why was that?
His dynasty was also a unified dynasty!
Even the Qing Dynasty, which was extremely hated by later generations, received so much attention, so what happened to his Sui Dynasty? Wasn't it unworthy?
If Zhou Jinyu knew what they were thinking, he would only sigh in confusion. Why? The late Jin Dynasty was too dark, and the Sui Dynasty was too short, as if it was just a prelude to the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, these two dynasties really had no presence in history...
Then I naturally ignored it...
