 Zhou Dynasty - China History - China
The Zhou Dynasty (周朝; Wade-Giles: Chou Dynasty) (late 10th century BC to late 9th century - 256 BC) followed the Shang Dynasty and preceded the Qin Dynasty in China.
Sharing the language and culture of the Shang, the early Zhou rulers, through conquest and colonization, gradually sinicized, that is, extended Shang culture through much of China Proper north of the Chang Jiang (Yangtze River).
Because of this shift, historians divide the Zhou era into Western Zhou (西周, pinyin Xî Zhôu) from late 10th century BC to late 9th century up until 771 BC and Eastern Zhou (traditional Chinese character: 東周simplified Chinese character: 东周, pinyin Dông Zhôu) from 770 up to 221 BC.
