Trading System

Exchanging goods change the human history and every society produce and import and export their goods. All Regions have different productions. For example China have great source of silk, India have spices, cotton and more, Middle East have dates, nuts, dried fruits and more. We import and export goods and production from all around the world and today long distance trade has been very common and has become very important in our societies and people. Consummation shaped our daily life and it make our life easier. 
China: China produce silk, bamboo, paper, gun power, and more. This significance of the silk road is there is a impact on culture; there was cultural influence. For example, Christianity spread in china and Buddhism was struggling. For many years women were making large contribution to their household economy, silk industry, and to the states; they were the main labor.
Silk road: There was exchange across Eurasia. The landmass of Eurasia has been home for large number of people and have the world most agricultural productive and was the largest civilization and more. Beside the separation of societies and culture, there was networking among people who have different race, religion and more. In the Eurasian history, the silk road provides the unity and it bring people together. There was a great demand of silk and cotton from India by Roman Empire. The growth of the silk road help exchange the agriculture product and producer.
In my opinion there is both positive and negative factor of trading, Good factor is that we get connected with people around the world and we get to buy and sell the resources; trading make our life much more easier. However, trading also affected the workers. For example, people who have small business produce and sell their product for living, but the bigger business for countries like the US, China goes and take over small business for low price, which attract more people and still make profit. Trade in some societies has become the the social capable or moving.
