Eastern Zhou Maps


Eastern Zhou Dynasty Map
 

This map roughly shows the Eastern Zhou dynasty from 771 BCE to 221 BCE. Like most dynasties in China,  the Eastern Zhou dynasty was in China Proper. The elevation of eastern Zhou is lower than the rest of china because it is closer to the shore. Being on the east coast, there was plenty of water and made better living conditions for a dynasty. Rivers running throughout Eastern Zhou alowed water to be accesed farther in land so civilation could thrive. Fertile land gave China the oppurtunity to farm and people took advantage and grew in agricultural succes.
