Reading excerpt from "5,000 Years of China":
6️⃣ The Yellow Emperor is peaceful in the world
Many ancient historical legends record that Chinese history began with the Yellow Emperor. According to ancient historical records, the Yellow Emperor was the second son of the Chinese monarch Shaodian and surnamed Gongsun. He lives in Xuanyuan Hill, so he is also known as Xuanyuan.
The image of the Yellow Emperor was based on tribal military chiefs in the late military democracy of patrilineal clan society. At that time, private property had just been born, and bloody massacres and annexations had already begun among the primitive tribes of China; the sun of civilization was slowly rising with blood and violence.
After the Yellow Emperor tribe defeated the Yan Emperor and defeated Xuan You, Chinese history entered a new period of development.
No matter how the legend is, the Yellow Emperor is the first milestone in the history of the development of the Chinese nation.
