During the Han Dynasty (207 BCE-220 CE) and Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE), an organic trade network emerged linking merchants in China, Southeast and Central Asia, the Middle East, Horn of Africa, and Europe, known as the Silk Road. Today, China is rejuvenating and vastly expanding this ancient network across the Eastern Hemisphere and beyond. How can you become a part of this unprecedented global phenomena?
