Features: China is a large country and an ancient civilization with thousands of years of rich written records of economic history. It is the only country capable of writing an economic history that explains the development of productivity, the evolution of economic forms, and social changes, backed by a five-thousand-year cultural background. Compiling such a work will help reveal the universal laws of human economic and social development, and enhance our understanding and grasp of history and the future. During the process of writing this economic history, we have noted its unique characteristics while emphasizing that it must stand the test of scrutiny and time. When analyzing the economic development process, attention is paid to its connection with natural environment, population, economic thought, economic policies, political systems, cultural education, and military power.
