Chinese Civilization
Compare the main features of Chinese civilization from about 1000 to about 1500 CE to your choice of either the MesoAmerican (such as the Aztec) OR Andean civilizations (such as the Inca) in the Americas during approximately the same time period. How do you explain the similarities and differences? In your essay, try to develop interesting ideas and deploy evidence and reason in pursuit of a well-written, well-argued, and intellectually powerful essay. This means that your goal should be to write a standard academic essay (introduction; several topic paragraphs; conclusion) that reveals a comprehensive understanding of the issues and employs a wide range of evidence as found in the assigned readings and other course materials.
