25.How did the social order of people in the Han dynasty reflect Confucian values?
22. Personal journals, letters, and diaries
23. Personal opinion – Please provide your own response.
24. Similarities: Both civilizations developed along major rivers (Sumer along the Tigris and Euphrates, Egypt along the Nile) which provided fertile land for agriculture. Both civilizations had a hierarchical social structure with rulers, priests, and a laboring class.
Differences: Sumerian civilization developed in Mesopotamia and had a more fragmented political structure with city-states, while Egyptian civilization had a centralized monarchy. Sumerians invented cuneiform writing, while Egyptians used hieroglyphics. Sumerians worshipped a pantheon of gods, while Egyptians focused on the worship of specific deities.
25. The social order of the Han dynasty reflected Confucian values through the emphasis on filial piety (respect for parents and elders), the importance of education and cultivation of moral character, and the belief in a hierarchical structure with the emperor at the top and subjects bound by loyalty and obedience. Confucian teachings were influential in shaping the government and social norms of the Han dynasty.
