About this book
As the cradle of the ancient Maritime Silk Road, the South China Sea plays an important role in the history of civilization. Since the South China Sea opened to the outside world as a commercial port in 111 BC, it has experienced ups and downs. With dynasties changing over time, the Chinese South China Sea has undergone dramatic changes and experienced rises and falls along with the economic and cultural development of the Maritime Silk Road. It is still one of the most active and dynamic regions across China, and even the whole world.

In this book the social, economic and cultural synthesis in the South China Sea is examined, as well as trade and cultural communications. The scope of the book centers around economic, trade and cultural development, which is the starting point and main theme.
