The Tang dynasty conquered about half of china. It ranged from Shanghai to Urumqi, and was about a third of China's former dynasty- the Yuan dynasty. The orange on the map is the Tang dynasty, and the white is the rest of present day China. The beige is other present day countries, and the blue is, of course, water. The capital of the Tang dynasty was Chang'an. Chang'an is one of the most important capitals of ancient China. It was the capital for the Han, Sui, and the Tang dynasty. Chang'an lasted for about 700 years. Built in 200 A.D., it was demolished in 904 A.D.
