World history is constantly developing, but also gave birth to a variety of different civilizations, as we all know that China is also one of the four major ancient civilizations, Chinese culture as a type of world civilization, is still proud of perseverance in the world, and most of other civilizations have been submerged in the long river of history, but when it comes to Western civilization, ancient Greek culture has always been an unavoidable topic, and his influence is more throughout the three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa.
Greek civilization also caused the development and reproduction, is considered to be the originator of Western civilization, and the reason why it can have such a great influence, can not be separated from the Macedonian Kingdom, in 334 BC, the Macedonian Kingdom of Alexander the Great set off a pace of conquest of the world, he unified the Greek city-states, with all the Greek allied forces of the mighty Crusade to the West, destroyed the Persian Empire, it is said that in the heart of Alexander the Great, there is an ancient kingdom in the East, Alexander the Great wants to occupy this kingdom as well.
However, it was clear that geographical constraints prevented him from going, and eventually he went to India, although he did not come to China, but alexander the Great's war spread ancient Greek culture to three continents, including West Asia, Central Asia and India, where people later popularized Greek on a large scale and even became the official language, which was the hellenistic era brought about by Alexander the Great.
But as to whether Alexander the Great came to China or what would happen after encountering China? It has always been a problem that people continue to explore and pursue, to know that the Hellenistic influence brought by Alexander the Great is almost very large, after the conquest of Persia, for many years, the prevailing culture in the local area is Greek culture, children are reciting the Homeric Epic, including the Peacock Dynasty in India issued decrees at the same time, but also attached Greek translations.
Whether China has been influenced by Greek culture is usually not understood in the historical context, because the mainland was not eroded by Greek culture in that era, but many Western scholars opposed this, they believe that China should have been influenced by Hellenism, and also gave an example, they believe that the Qin Terracotta Army is the evidence of China's submission to Greek culture. They believe that the construction of the Qin Terracotta Warriors was built by Greek craftsmen by the ancient Chinese dynasty.
In fact, China's native culture has always been a fundamental disregard for foreign culture, although it has also carried out a certain critical acceptance, but we have not surrendered to their culture, and even forced to speak Greek to survive, at least as far back as the Han Dynasty, in all kinds of history books on the mainland, there are records about Greek culture, including some countries deeply influenced by Greek culture, their living conditions, etc. In fact, the development of Chinese civilization at that time was far beyond the West, so for their cultural traditions, We've always been dismissive. The Greeks were able to conquer vast territories, but they were helpless against China.
