The Northern Dynasties (386-581 AD) is the general name for the five dynasties that existed in the north of my country between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Sui and Tang Dynasties, including the Northern Wei, Eastern Wei, Western Wei, Northern Qi and Northern Zhou. The Eastern Wei and Western Wei were split from the Northern Wei. After the Eastern Wei, there was the Northern Qi, and after the Western Wei, there was the Northern Zhou. The Northern Wei's unification of the north ended nearly 150 years of chaos in the Central Plains and laid the foundation for the subsequent unification of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The Tuoba Tribe of Xianbei founded the Northern Wei Dynasty, and brought nomadic people into the Central Plains. They learned from the Central Plains culture, incorporated it, and made great progress and breakthroughs in science and technology. On the one hand, the science and technology of the Northern Dynasties inherited and developed the system formed since the Qin and Han Dynasties. On the other hand, it absorbed the scientific and technological knowledge from foreign cultures represented by Buddhism and integrated it into the Chinese science and technology system. It achieved considerable development and major breakthroughs in many fields such as astronomy, earth science, agriculture, medicine, architecture and mechanical technology. The scientific and technological achievements of the Northern Dynasties not only enriched the ancient Chinese scientific and technological system, but also improved the scientific and technological level, and ultimately perfected and developed traditional Chinese science and technology. The science and technology of the Northern Dynasties and the science and technology of the Southern Dynasties complemented each other and played an important role in inheriting and developing the ancient Chinese science and technology system.

From 1957 to 1966, it was a decade of comprehensive construction of socialism in our country, and it was also a decade of development of both right and wrong tendencies. The correct aspect is that the adjustment of the national economy has achieved great results. After five years of adjustment, the period after 1962 became one of the better periods of economic development in the Republic. The science, technology and defense industry represented by "two bombs and one satellite" have also made great progress. "A large part of the material and technical foundation on which we rely for modernization was built during this period" ("Resolution on Certain Historical Issues of the Party since the Founding of the People's Republic of China"). The errors were concentrated in the further development of class struggle theory, which ultimately led to the "Cultural Revolution", a national disaster. The two are contradictory to each other, but the contradiction has been controlled within a certain range for the time being. The complexity of history shows us a tortuous development trajectory.

The year 2013 is worth writing in the history of New China, not only because this year is the year when a new government was born, but also because the style and discipline of the ruling Communist Party of China need to be rectified. The spread of corruption within the party is eroding the body of the party, causing strong dissatisfaction among the people; reform and opening up has entered the deep water zone and the critical period, how to make the results of years of reform and opening up benefit all the people, not just a beautiful slogan; the extensive economic development model has paid too many resources and environmental costs, and must be determined to change. This year, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, headed by Xi Jinping, has taken firm steps in governing the party, the country, and the military, as well as reform, development, and stability. The "Chinese Dream" of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is an inexhaustible driving force for the people's sustainable glory.

The year 1978 was an important year for achieving a great turning point in the history of the Republic. In the nearly 100-year history of the Communist Party of China and the 70-year history of New China, 1978 is a very important year.

A new era of reform and opening up with socialist modernization with Chinese characteristics as the main content began.

In ancient China, there were only five most important colors: red, green, yellow, white, and black. In the evolution of Chinese civilization, the five-color system and the five-element theory are mutually reinforcing and have penetrated into many aspects such as politics, culture, and social life. This book explains color from the perspective of humanities and history, describing the inextricable connection between color and ancient Chinese culture (including politics, history, literature, folk customs, art, etc.). The author uses history as a bead and colors as a network to pick up and string together the old customs, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, wine and recreation, grand talks in temples, boudoir gossip, flowers, birds, fish and insects, humans, ghosts and immortals... The colorful images of China for thousands of years are presented in a dazzling way.

The civilizational heritage of ancient Greece has long occupied the core position of European culture. As an interpretation object, it has been continuously shaped and reshaped in the long history of history. It has been selected as an important academic and ideological reference in different historical periods of Europe. From the Roman Empire, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance to after the French Revolution, how was the meaning of ancient Greece defined and interpreted in different historical periods?

This book studies ancient Greece from the perspective of historical anthropology, affirming cultural diversity and comparability, thereby dispelling modern people's myths about ancient civilizations and Europe's sense of superiority about the origin of its own culture.

We have seen many stories about the rise and fall of modern enterprises. In fact, the same drama was played out in the ancient Mediterranean civilization thousands of years ago. In this book, Zhihu expert Mianmian interprets many ancient civilizations in the Mediterranean such as Rome, Greece, and Egypt from the perspective of modern business management. The diverse political systems, internal mechanisms, and development methods of these ancient civilizations contain management wisdom and experience lessons that modern enterprises can learn from. In terms of development strategies: Babylon established a commercial center and logistics system; Carthage was committed to establishing a transnational trade network and adopted localization strategies in many places; Phoenicia was deeply involved in transoceanic trade and focused on navigation and shipbuilding-related technologies. These coincide with the current emphasis on self-owned logistics and market segmentation. In terms of enterprise size: Ancient Egypt relied on its huge size, was closed and unprogressive, and eventually died sadly; Aegean provided ideas for the survival of small and micro enterprises. In terms of expansion: Persia continues to expand overseas, which is very similar to the approach of large multinational companies to increase market value; Assyria took advantage of being a latecomer, adopted militarized management, grew barbarically, and flourished for a time, but its ultimate failure was also attributed to this. In terms of manager selection: Rome, which has lasted for thousands of years, has established a mature management mechanism to select excellent leaders; the internal strife caused by the crazy infighting of the Hittites is worth pondering for many family businesses today. While summarizing these experiences and lessons, Mianmian also displays the rise and fall of these civilizations in front of us in a panoramic manner. Taking the development time as the axis, he writes the details inside and outside each civilization, and goes into depth about the confrontations, conflicts and other entanglements between civilizations, and analyzes the interactions between them and the consequences. This makes the appearance of ancient history clearer and the cruelty of competition more prominent.

A person who does not read history will always have a superficial understanding of the world. The greatest value to us of all wisdom stories or truths is to inspire our understanding and expand our thinking and vision. History gives us a vantage point for observation, and wisdom gives us a way of thinking. Let us cherish this common wealth of mankind and learn to use it healthily. Intelligence is not a formula, nor is it a lesson, nor is it a truth that is universally applicable. But it is the light of wisdom and the precious intellectual heritage of mankind. Reading some historical or real-life stories of resourcefulness can help us correctly understand the people and things in life. "Wisdom comes from necessity, and cleverness comes from danger." This is a famous saying of the British playwright Shakespeare.

A person who does not read history will always have a superficial understanding of the world. The greatest value to us of all wisdom stories or truths is to inspire our understanding and expand our thinking and vision.
