Today we read from The Story Of The world.
I also finished a dress I was sewing. It was for my doll, sheh.
I learned about the Sui dynasty in China. China was divided in to two parts, south China and north China. Then a man named Yang Chien wanted China to be one empire and so he started the Sui dynsty. But there are to rivers in China the Yellow river and the Yangtze river. these rivers stopped the north from seeing the south! So the emperor was gonna build a canal named the Grand Canal. It was hard to build this canal and the emperor needed money so he made people pay tax ten years advance! he also made men from the age 15 to 50 work on the canal with no pay. when the Grand Canal was finally done the emperor wanted to celebrate by bringing his family and court on to the Grand Canal in bouts and it took 62 bouts! Then the emperor, Yangdi didn't want to row so he made 80,000 men to pull! That was the last straw the people of China rebelled against Yangdi and killed him!
I think that when Yangdi was on the bout he should of hired some one to row!
