A warm welcome to everyone across the world and thank you for listening to the introductory episode of the China History Podcast. Each week we will bring you a different topic taken from the annals of 5,000 years of Chinese history.

We’ll look at the dynasties, historical persons, ancient history, modern history, and everything in between. Today in the 21st century China’s role in the world and how China’s impact touches many of us has never been greater.
