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.
Religion played an important role in Minoan Crete and many activities, and artistic products revolved around religious cult. As evidence in the art of the period, the Minoans deified the natural world and found in it a logical order that allowed man to live in harmony with the natural environment.anguage. The first written scripts of the Minoans resemble egyptian hieroglyphs. The Phaistos Disk which is now exhibited in the Heraklion Archaeological Museum and dates back to 1700 BC, is an example of such script. Later the emergence of a syllable based script we call Linear A permeates the island.
