Reflections on history project

I learnt that teamwork was very important as everyone has to co-operate in order to get the project done everyone has a role to play in the project no one is more important or less. I also learnt about that time management is very important as we have to complete the project on time and at the same time the project must be well done. I also learnt the importance about responsibility as we have to be responsible and do the task assigned to us or else the project won't be done on time i also learnt alot more about history through the research.I think the project can be improved by conducting it after school and ask all groups to do presentation as some of us didn't manage to see all d works done by 1e1 n 1e4 and when we ask those who have done it to explain to us they can't do it coz they were not those who have done the project and i believe it will be more clear and better for us if we listen to the explaination of all groups so it will be better if every group do their own presentation on separate days like 1e1 on mon n 1e4 on thurs so we will combine classes n we can all listen to all their explaination

Reflection on religion and philosophy

We might face challenges such as racial riots and discrimination of races or religions we can prevent this by understanding why other races and religions do certain things once we understand we will be able respect their actions. We can understand their races n religion better not only by studying history also by talking to people of different races and asking them more about their religion and races. I think our government should have more television programme about other races or religion culture or special festival of different races n religions such as the chinese hungry ghost festival,Ramadan the fasting month for Mueslim and so on and so forth. We as Singaporeans should respect other races more n think about the other party's feeling when we say things that is hurting towards their religion or races. That will prvent all these racial riots and duscrimination we should teat everyone equally regardless of race, language or religion. Religion and philosophies are important to the people of ancient civilisations as religion and philosophies guide people on how to live a proper life and guide people to the correct pathway of life. Religions also allow people to obey their king as their king was regarded as being divine. Philosophies enable people to live their live in peace n harmony, respect others n filial piety n allow people to be good and develope good core values except for Legalism.

Similarities and dufferences of their system with Singapore

In Singapore there is no longer a king but we still have someone in charge which is the government.The only similarities in Singapore and China and Southeast Asia was that people can chage their occupation if they want to. Everyone is given a fair chance like how Han Wu Di created the Imperial Civil Service Examinations to select the Shi. The government's family cannot take over the government position after he die as there will be a new government elected. Singaporeans havce a choice of which government we want to rule over us but the ancient civilisations' people do not have a chance to choose which king they wanted to rule them. There are different people to help the government rule like the minister and the prime minister. The government don't give the ministert or prime minister land. The minister and prime minister only help the government rule. Singapore is not divided into smaller area of land such as capital, inner provinces and so on and so forth it is just a land. We too have a system to where people belonged to like teachers, students, principal, government and so on. But we don't rank them. Everyone is respected and treated equally.

Differences in the social system of the 3 ancient civilisations

In India the social system is known as the Caste System.1)The brahmins which include pirests, scholars and teachers 2)The kshatriyas which include warriors and rulers 3) Shudras include traders, farmers and landowners and lastly the untouchable there is no such thing as the untouchables in China nor Southeast Asia.In china the traders were located at the most bottom 1)The ruling class 2) scholars 3) farmers 4) craftsmen 5) traders. The traders were located at the most bottom as the people in ancient China think that traders did not produce anything and make a living from the hard work of others. While in Southeast Asia traders were highly respected 1)Ruiling class 2) Trading and priestly class example priests. 3)Working class example: farmers, craftsmen and fishermen traders were highly respected as trading was the factor that helped Southeast Asia to grow.

Differences between government of 3 ancient civilisations

Government in Ancient Indai was divided into four groups Capital, Inner Provinces, Outer provinces and Border Zones. While Ancient China was divided into 2 groups Caputal and Provinces. Southeast Asia was divided into Capital, Provinces and Vassal states.Southeast Asia is not made up of one large piece of land it consists of two distinct areas-mainland and island while India and China is made up of one large piece of land.

All of them have different people to help the king rule example in India the kings that were defeated during wars, China has the Shi while Southeast Asia has governors appinted by the kings. There is feudalism in China but not in Southeast Asia and India this means that the shi need to give the king tribute for the land given but the kings and governors in India nad Southeast Asia do not need to give any tributes to the king in return for the lands.The people looks for signs such as natural disaters and this shows that a king is not a good ruler and they would have the right to overthrow the ruler. As the heaven would give it's blessing to a good ruler this is known as Mandate of heaven which is not relevant in China nor India. There is a examination to determine who is the Shi The Imperial Civil Service Examinations(c.140-87 BCE) this is only in ancirnt China not in Southeast Asia or India.

Similarities between the government and society of the three civilisations

All three civilisations were ruled by kings and the kings were regarded as being divine which means god-like. All the lands were divided into smaller area called provinces for the three civilisation and they all have a capital. All three civilisations have different people to help rule the whole kingdom example in India there are kings who were defeated during wars and China there is the Shi while Southeast Asia there is the governors appointed by Sultan which is the malay word for king to help the king rule. All three have their own writing system and they had 4 same occupations whuch is traders, farmers, priest and craftsmen. They have their own social systems.
