Dawn of China (1): Myths to Dynasties

Welcome to Season 1, where we explore diplomacy, ancient geopolitics, and pragmatic wisdom from Strategies of the Warring States (~2,500 years old), a timeless Chinese classic! But first, our mini-series, Dawn of Chinese Civilization, sets the stage with context for ancient Chinese society, covering mythic origins, the Xia dynasty (~2100 BC, Gilgamesh era), and the Shang (Bronze Age, ~Egypt’s New Kingdom). Delivered in a lively, interview-style chat, it’s engaging and accessible—no dense history here. Let’s embark on this vibrant journey through time!
