• Chinese goods became highly valued in other lands, so trade routes began opening up.
• Trading Chinese silk for strong Central Asian horses became a primary goal under the rule of Emperor Wudi.
• Central Asians could then take the silk and trade it for products in other lands.
Trade Routes
What type of trade system is it called when you trade a product for another product?
![Page 9: Ancient China Chapter 6-5: Han Contacts with Other Cultures](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032312/56649e2c5503460f94b1accc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chinese traders only used the road until they reached Central Asia, and then gave their goods to local traders.
The Silk Road
China grew rich from trading silk with other lands.
Travelers banded together for protection along the many miles of difficult terrain (mountains, deserts, harsh weather). They also sometimes hired armed soldiers to protect them from bandits.
The Silk Road was a network of routes stretching more than 4,000 miles across Asia’s deserts and mountain ranges, through the Middle East and stopping at the Mediterranean Sea.

• After coming into contact with Indian Buddhists on trade routes, many Chinese brought the teachings home to China.
• In hopes of relieving the suffering of human life, both rich and poor people began to embrace the teachings of the Buddha.
• The popularity of Buddhism in China is an example of diffusion: the spread of ideas from one culture to another.
