With illuminating features on important historical figures, cultural achievements, and philosophy such as the rise of Confucianism and the silk and tea trades Imperial China explores how the Chinese empire flourished and declined over the course of two millennia from the unifying "first emperor" of the Qin and the golden ages of Tang and Song, to the final fall of the Manchu Qing dynasty.
