Period 2 (600 BCE – 600 CE)
External
Factors
Conflict with nomadic tribes: Xiongnu and
others to the north. Development of barbarian
states in North China.
Invasion by
Nomadic
Peoples, too
much frontier
to defend.
Conflict with Germanic tribes from the
Northern frontier. Germanic troops
established kingdoms. Germanic groups
tended to not assimilate into Roman cultures.
Had their own ethnic identities.
Internal
Factors
Peasant Rebellions (Yellow Turban)
devastated the economy and weakened the
state. Infighting ruling elites. Empire divided
into 3 kingdoms. Generals become warlords.
Tension between eunuchs and scholar-gentry.
The fall led to a period of disunity but then a
very similar style dynasty emerged.
Droughts and floods = starvation and
displacement of peoples; Slavery = Criminal
labor and relatives of criminals
Large tax burden
on peasants; Gap
between Rich and
poor; Too big; too
expensive to
maintain; divide
empire; epidemics;
political rivalry,
unemployment
Eastern Roman Empire and Western Roman
Empire. Political corruption. Many emperors in a
relatively short span of time. Many political
assassinations. Western half of the empire
collapses. Eastern half preserves Roman traditions.
Epidemics = population declined 25% =
diminished production; Fall of Rome created a
more distinctive culture. Europe remains
decentralized, without an encompassing imperial
state. Large scale slave society which led to
unemployment and peasant revolts. Decline of
patriotism and loyalty; food shortages.
Reasons for Similarities:
Conrad Demarest Model of Empire: They both desired expansion and grew too big
Han and Rome traded = spread of exotic diseases = both areas had epidemics
Reasons for Differences:
China had more cultural homogeneity. Roman Empire = ethnic/linguistic diversity
China had a stronger bureaucracy
Nomadic invaders in China tended to assimilate Chinese culture. Invaders in Rome
Rome had a greater reliance on slave labor. Slavery led to unemployed masses = destabilizing effect
