The Changing Status of Women

• The Patriarchal system characterized most early civilizations

• Islamic women had rights some other women did not have:– Could inherit property, divorce husbands,

engage in business– But, the Qur’an allowed men to follow

Muhammad’s example to take up to four wives, and women could only have one husband

Page 15: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

The Changing Status of Women

• Muslims also adopted the long-standing custom of veiling women– Upper class women in Mesopotamia wore

veils as early as the 13th century B.C.E. This practice had spread to Persia and the entire Mediterranean long before Muhammad lived.

– As Islam spread, so to did the custom

known as madrasas had appeared– By the 12th century these schools were

supported by the wealthy and a flowering of arts, sciences, and new technologies spread throughout the Islamic world

Page 17: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Interregional Networks and Contacts

• Contacts between the Middle East (West Asia), the Indian sub-continent, and Asia (long distance trade) increased a great deal between 600 – 1450 C.E.– Via the Indian Ocean and the Silk Roads

• Venice and Genoa eventually tied into this network by way of the Mediterranean

• Trans-Saharan African trade became more important as major civilizations began to develop south of the Sahara

Page 21: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

African Societies & Empires• Until about 600 C.E. most African societies

based their economies on foraging or simple agriculture and herding

• The family was the center of political and social life, and none had a centralized government

• The spread of Islam began to change all of this, the unifying forces of religion and the shari’a helped Africa to develop centralized states

• This gradual, nonviolent spread of Islam was very conducive to trade, especially due to gold south of the Sahara

Page 22: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Strengths of the Tang (618 – 907 CE)

• Buddhism became fully established in China• Received a warm welcome at first from Daoists, as

they seemed to have much in common– They both have priests and monasteries and some

structure of an organized religion (lacking in Confucianism)

– Both interested in spells, charms and breathing exercises

Page 31: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

3. A merit-based bureaucracy (originally developed during the Han Dynasty)

Page 32: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Tang Dynasty Religious Problems

• Confucian and Daoist supporters took note of Buddhism’s growing influence, and became jealous– Confucianism emphasized duties owed to one’s

society, its highest value on order, hierarchy, and obedience to superiors

– Buddhism encouraged its supporters to withdraw from society and concentrate on personal meditation

Page 33: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Tang Dynasty Religious Problems

• Finally in the 9th Century, Confucian scholar-bureaucrats conspired to convince the emperors to take lands away from the Buddhist monasteries through the equal-field system

• Buddhism was also attacked for encouraging women in politics.– Wu Zhao, a woman, seized control of the government

• Favored Buddhists and Daoists in her court system

• Some worried about “barbarians” ruining society. Many pointed to Buddhism as evidence of foreign evil.

Page 34: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Founding of the Song

• Emphasized civil administration, industry, education, and the arts over the military.

• Never established hegemony over as much area as the Tang because of this.– Political disunity was a constant threat as long as the Song held

power.

• Presided over China’s “Golden Era” which was characterized by prosperity, sophistication, and creativity.– Expanded the government based on merit. Accepted more

candidates to bureaucratic posts than Sui and Tang.

Page 35: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Problems Under the Song

• Military – Led by scholar bureaucrats with little knowledge in leading armies.– The Jurchens, a nomadic group with a strong military,

overran northern China and captured the Song capital.

– Southern part of the Song empire would eventually be conquered by the Mongols. (1279 CE)

guardians.

Ming Empire.

Page 41: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Early Ming Dynasty

• Zhu Yuan Zhang located the capital in Nanjing.– Also tried closing off trade relations with

Central Asia and the Middle East.– Reasserted Confucian ideology.

• Turned internal.– It was possible to do this because of the great

distance between other empires. China could be left alone and no one can do much about it.

Page 42: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Korea

Page 43: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Japan

• Chinese armies never invaded Japan.– Even Kublai Khan’s great forces could not

overcome the straits that lie between Korea and Japan

– Kamikaze (from Kami - "god" and kaze - "wind") means 'divine wind' in Japanese. It refers to the typhoon which saved Japan from a Mongol invasion fleet in 1281

Page 44: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High Jacksonville, FL

Japan• Some Chinese influence made it to Japan:

– Confucianism, Buddhism, and Chinese writing characters

• But Japan also remained unique in two ways:

• Shintoism- native religion, venerated ancestors was not replaced by the Chinese belief systems

• The Japanese Emperor from 794-1188 was a figurehead, families and military people had the real power at this time not the Emperor

Page 45: World History Advanced Placement Review Time Period Two 600-1450 C.E. Kevin Sacerdote Mandarin High School Jacksonville, FL 32258

Changes 600-1450 CE

Bantu-Speaking People• The Bantu Migration during this period took

place in Africa• Originally lived south of the Sahara, in the

vicinity of modern day Nigeria (West Africa)– The desert was spreading south and the area was

getting overcrowded, hence the move to the south by south east direction within Africa through a variety of climatic zones
