Answer 1

The correct answer is D. Ming artistic achievements Included rugs, temples, lacquered trays, and blue porcelain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) ruled China for nearly three centuries. The Ming era is considered "one of the greatest periods of orderly government and social stability in human history." This stability was achieved by a strong autocratic regime, supported by an efficient bureaucracy of officials trained in the Confucian classics (literate directors). The Chinese population tripled in the Ming period, from around 60 million to 150-200 million people, and the empire experienced a major commercial and cultural boom.

Culturally, the increasing urbanization and expansion of the printing press led to greater diversity and refinement. A freethinking literate such as Wang Yangming is a striking example of this development. Contacts with Europeans stimulated the commercialization and artisanal production of China, especially in the delta of the Yangzi River. Chinese products such as silk and the famous Ming porcelain were highly sought after by Europeans.

Answer 2

The correct answer is letter D: Ming Artistic achievements Included rugs, temples, lacquered trays, and blue porcelain.

Under the Ming Dynasty, China was the largest economy in the world (it had the larger area and more literate people than any other country in the world). During the 15th. Century, they developed in architecture, economy, printing, literature, medicine, arts and culture. Temples like The Porcelain Pagoda of Nanjing and The Golden Hall in the Wudang Mountains were constructed. Blue and white porcelain became famous around the world. With Chinese ceramics, three types of decoration (monochromatic glazes, under-glaze, and over-glaze) emerged.
