Features: What is called economic history is nothing more than the history of economic development and economic growth, the economic aspect of historical evolution, and the sum of economic activities in a certain historical period. However, as an marginal discipline and foundational subject within the field of economic science, economic history is also the discipline that studies the specific processes and special laws of economic activities and economic relations in various historical periods, different countries or regions. It provides a basis for summarizing historical experience and predicting future trends in social and economic development, as well as offering a historical context for studying economic thoughts, theories, and policies formed in different historical periods. Without the in-depth study and development of economic history, the research of economic theory would lose its main direction.
