The Ming Dynasty ruled their empire for almost 300 years, prospered from freer private trade and industry and with trade with Europeans, and then it fell due to internal rebellions and the attack of the Manchus.

This is very important as they were in the Bronze Age, a time where advanced agriculture appeared in the Aegean Sea (where they were based) and this flourished. The Aegean Sea is based in Greece.
Origins of the Minoans. It is not known from where the Minoans first came to settle on the Island of Crete. Most historians presume that they made their way from Asia Minor. Their language was not Indo-European so they likely had not come from the north or north-west.They may have seen something of civilization before landing on Crete.t is not known from where the Minoans first came to settle on the Island of Crete.
