Final answer:

Under the Han dynasty, there was no effort to send explorers to North America; instead, they focused on trade expansion through the Silk Road, advancements in arts and sciences, and laws based on Confucian teachings.

Step-by-step explanation:

The aspect of Chinese culture under the Han dynasty that was NOT true is the claim that Chinese explorers were sent to North America to expand Chinese territories. During the Han era, many important developments took place, including the expansion of trade with the West through the Silk Road and the advancements in arts and sciences due to economic prosperity. Laws were indeed influenced by the teachings of the philosopher Confucius, but there is no historical evidence to support the idea that the Han dynasty sent explorers to North America.

Answer: Sent explorers to North America to expand Chinese territories

Step-by-step explanation:

The Han dynasty went on for over four centuries and was hugely influential in the progression of China as a people and civilisation. The prosperity brought by the dynasty allowed for people to study arts and sciences and the trade that came through the silk road made the Chinese wealthy.

There were also laws based on the great philosopher, Confucius.

One thing the Han did not do however, was send explorers to North America. Indeed it is unlikely that the Chinese ever went there before the Europeans did.
