How can I improve this blog?
I can improve this blog by having longer asnwers to my posts. The answers are quite short and I could most likely improve that ina good way. My template is a but boring and that could be improved by making it more "spicy".
How did Wendi reduce religious conflicts?
Wendi helped reduce religious conflicts by allowing people to follow their own belief systems. Even though Wendi was a Buddhist, he encouraged Daoist beliefs and practices. Confucianism also made a rebirth during this time. Wendi was raised by a Buddhist nun until he was 13. This probably explains how strong of a believer he is in the religon. Although Wendi is a strong believer in Buddhism, he encouraged other religons for his Dynasty. This helped majorly in the conflicts that arose with religon.
How did the Grand Canal effect the Sui Dynasty?
The Grand Canal was being built by Wendi with many workers. The canal made a pathway which linked northern and southern China through two rivers. These two rivers are called: The Huang He (Yellow River) and Chang Jiang (Yangtze River). The Grand Canal also contributed to the fall of the Sui Dynasty. The Grand Canal brought good effects too though. It helped transport many goods from place to place and also served as a transportation route for humans. The canal is still resting in China today as the CHinese people still use it for their everyday needs.
Why did the Sui Dynasty fall, and when?
The Sui Dynasty fell apart only 37 years after it began. The year it collapsed was 618. It fell apart due to the people growing tired of paying high taxes that paid for the canal, so they revolted. On March 5, 581 the Sui Dynasty began. It lasted not long, but long enough to make history. Wendi was building the Grand Canal, and to build the canal, they needed money. Wendi raised the taxes of the people living in the Sui Dynasty, and they did not like this. They were paying a lot of money for something they felt that they didn't need. The Sui Dynasty was ruled for 13 years by Yang Di after his father, Wendi passed away. The Sui Dynasty collapsed due to a revoltion of a military coup.
What did Wendi do during his rule?
Wendi did many things to make the Chinese feel more unified. He restored old political traditions like, accepting red doors and a red sash. He also began public projects. He rebuilt portions of the great wall, and started the building of the Grand Canal. The Grand Canal is a very long passageway filled with water so that boats can transport goods from place to place. It begins in Beijing and ends in Hangzhou. This canal is very important to the people and economy of China, becasue without it, the Chinese would not have a way of transporting their goods. When Wendi restored old traditions, he was declaring himself loyal and honorable. This is important to the Sui Dynasty becuase maybe if he hadn't, the rule of the Sui Dynasty would have been shorter. In the end, the Chinese civilians felt more unifiefd then they had before.
Who is Wendi and what did he do?
Wendi is an emporer known from 581-589 whom was originally known as Yang Jian. He massacred 59 royal princes. Afterward he declared himself emporer of the Sui Dynasty.

After he resigned from being a general for the army, he began to rule over a Dynasty which was known as, The Sui Dynasty. He was the first Chinese emporer for 369 years. That's a long time! Wendi also had a son named Yang Di who took over the Sui Dyanasty after Wendi passed away.
