    The Sui dynasty managed to reunify China under imperial authority. During the Tang dynasty that followed, the imperial court moved to Chang'an and the country experienced economic growth through manufacturing, trade, and the introduction of important technologies like paper money and the printing press. However, the Tang dynasty eventually declined due to government corruption and rebellions. The Song dynasty then rose to power and faced challenges from invasions by northern neighbors, though the city of Hangzhou became enormously wealthy. During this period, a landed gentry class controlled much of the land and civil service positions, while women faced discrimination and oppression in Chinese society.
