Here we are, the ending of the Sung Dynasty. I never thought this day would come. Oh, hi there. Im Dii. Wanna hear about the Sung Dynasty? Okay, well Im gonna tell you anyways. It started in 960 ad, when the Tang Dynasty fell. We could grow rice super quickly. We had two crops per year, so we had a surplus. It became a major cash crop for us. The surplus led to a lot more trade which somehow brought the arts back. They created the Grand Canal which helped get people across the whole country quicker and easier. When the trade got big, the invention of paper money came about. It got really big really fast. They had a very ordered society, and the gentry got the best jobs and places in the military. We had a very rich society in general but they gentries had the best of everything. Then the mongols came and they ended our dynasty around 1279 ad.
