Top Three Chinese Inventions
By: Makayla
# 1: Paper Money
Paper money may not seem very important now, but belive me, in medieval china it was the next best thing. Before paper money, they olnly had coins so they had to carry around a bunch of coins, and they still do. I chose this because the reason paper money was invented, was so all the gold and coins could be stored somewhere all together and just handing out bills making it lighter.They olny used the paper money for special things and events. I also chose this as my first most important invention because without paper money, who know how long it would take the U.S.A to make it or use it too. Paper money is now clearly very important to the modern world.
#2: The Compass
I wonder where am I? Oh, the compass can help me! This invention was an amazing invention. The way they figured out the magnetic pull on earth, and it pointed to the north pole. I chose this as one of my favorite chinese inventions because it could Help Sailors at sea to get where they need to go without getting lost. Another great reason I picked this as one of the most important chinese inventions is because, the fact that they found out that there was magnetic pull towards the north and they figured out that it would help the sailors find there way through the ocean.
#3: The Small Pox Vaccination
Smallpox was very dangerous at the time. But they soon made a vaccination to help with the death of this deadly disease. Vaccines are what we go and get now that protect us from getting diseases, such as the Flu. I chose this because, it made history and saved over 100,000 people. I also chose this because it was an amazing Invention.The Smallpox vaccine changed the world.
