special, and important because they were
known to protect the emperor. They were
figures of uncovered life-size soldiers, found
by archaeologists, that were in ancient
tombs. These clay soldiers were called the
“Terracotta Army”. The clay “Terracotta

Well, China is very big so you probably don’t
want to get walked over by a million people,
but China isn’t just big. It is a fun, exciting,
and cultural country. Many Chinese people
are very proud of their homeland! Other than
just being happy and feeling fun and proud
for China, you should actually have reasons
for why you’re proud of it, which is why
you’re reading! There will be a lot of history,
dancing, and festival facts while you’re
reading. So without further-ado, let’s get to it!
China always believed in spirits from long
times ago while storytelling festivals, like
souls from kings or evil spirits. The Lantern
Festival started about… 2,000 years ago. It is
very, very important to China’s culture
because it is believed to scare evil spirits
away, for the flashy colors and loud noise.
The Chinese ballet also started a big amount
of years ago. The dance is very entertaining!
Something else that can be entertained to
other people and is very cool is that China is
one of the 4 ancient civilizations!

was found amazing in Ancient China was a
clay soldier project from a war a long, long
time ago. These clay soldiers are very cool,
