The four ancient civilizations actually correspond to the four birthplaces of the world. Civilizations are Mesopotamia, ancient Egypt, ancient India and China. Four large-scale human civilizations were born at the earliest, but the later Aegean civilization was not included. The significance of the four ancient civilizations lies not in the chronological order, but in the fact that they are the birthplace of modern civilization and the influence of the region.
Ancient China was relatively closed in geography, advanced in culture and large in population, so it survived again and again.
1, China's geographical environment is superior, relatively independent and closed, and its self-sufficient small-scale peasant economy is very dominant, so there will be many people engaged in literature and its creation, which will inevitably produce many good works that can stand the test of time; In ancient China, farming civilization always dominated, and China had the Yellow River, so the development of civilization must involve rivers, such as the Ganges in ancient India and the Nile in ancient Egypt.
2. Matter determines consciousness. Because China has always existed, its culture as a material accessory will also spread.
China managed many wars in ancient times. During the war, the Han nationality and many Chinese fir nationalities will come into contact with each other and their cultures will collide. The result of the collision will be the survival of the fittest, which will also enable China to add many works that can stand the test of time.
4. China's ancient culture mostly served the rulers, such as Confucian culture, so it was bound to be supported by the rulers.
5. China has a lot of comments on estimation, such as various exegesis, elegant, explaining words and so on. So it is very helpful for modern people to learn ancient books.
Mainly the feudal autocracy in China for more than 2000 years! Cultural inheritance!
In addition, every dynasty in China has well-written history books. In order to draw lessons from past dynasties, China's traditional culture has been largely preserved!
Ancient Egypt, Babylon and India all lost their independence because of foreign invasion, which interrupted ancient civilization.
Historically, India has been invaded by foreign forces, and most intruders often don't want to leave after entering. For example, at the end of 16, western powers expanded eastward, and the Netherlands, Portugal, France and Britain all invaded this country. Therefore, Indian culture is deeply influenced by foreigners and is not easy to preserve!
The same is true of ancient Egypt, which began in more than 4000 BC and ended in 332 BC when it was conquered by Alexander the Great.
BC 1595, ancient Babylon was destroyed by the Hittites.
