Synopsis

Experience what human life was truly like hundreds of thousands of years ago.

From the age of raw meat and primitive living to the creation of Chinese civilization under the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, you will see just how hard-won Chinese civilization was five thousand years ago.

As you and the author take each step toward the birth of China, you will feel a heartfelt pride in the Chinese people. Looking back at the entire history of human civilization from the age of China, what a proud and magnificent era it was.

[A Brief Overview of the Grand Era]

1. Paleolithic Age: Experience each step of the transition from a patrilineal clan society to a matrilineal one.

2. The rise and fall of matrilineal clans: The first two sections alone are planned to run to tens of millions of words.

3. The glory of the great tribal alliance under the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

[A Brief Overview of the Smaller Eras]

The You Dong clan, You Chao clan, Sui Ren clan, Hua Xu clan, Nuwa clan, Fuxi clan, Shennong clan, Jiuli tribes, Chi You clan, You Xiong clan, and more~~

These are the major tribes. The work also explores conjectures about lesser clans for which there are no historical records, weaving them into the historical threads that span the entire remote past.

Any Transmigration Novels with More Intelligent Characters?

Please recommend some transmigration novels. I don't mind whether they have a golden finger, but don't write the emperor and his ministers as idiots with no thoughts of their own who just agree with whatever the protagonist says. That's so dull.
