The Hsia (Xia) dynasty is the first dynasty recorded in Chinese history. Its territory covered approximately the area of present-day southern Shansi, south-eastern Shensi, and western Henan provinces.History elucidates the way in which the nations of each age rise and Fall, and the way the virtuous ancients built the character necessary to Rule peacefully.

From history we learn to regard as right what is right, and as wrong what is wrong, thereby leaving the world free of moral ambiguity.历史乃所以明历代国家兴衰隆替之道,古圣先贤修齐治平之理,辨人我之异同,明是非之大端。是者是之,非者非之,使黑白无所遁形于天地之间。 The Chinese people are proud of their long and continuous history; history holds a special significance for the Chinese. 悠久而且绵延不断的历史使中国人感到自豪;历史使中国而言是有特殊意义的。 This book is one of the Chinese Culture Story Series.
