I had to write a paragraph about it idk why im writing it here but this is it:
The Silk Road: Connecting the Ancient World Through Trade
After you watch the video, explain how the Silk Road was the original world wide web.
(Use the instructions as your topic sentence. Define silk road and world wide web. Explain the obvious differences and the similar connections between the two. 7-10 sentences. If you follow my advice within these parentheses, you already have 7)
The silk road was the original world wide web. A world wide web is how all of earths people stay connected. The new WWW is the internet, but the silk road is the first. The silk road was a network of trade routes which connected the East and West, and was central to the economic, cultural, political, and religious interactions between these regions from the 2nd century BCE to the 18th century. The difference between the new WWW and the old one is that the old one was slower and it eventually failed, while the new one can get messages from one side of the world to the other in a blink of an eye and is still going strong as of now. The internet is also available to all people, while the silk road was obviously just for people in the eastern hemisphere. The silk road made trade and travel became easier, allowing different civilizations to be connected like never before.

What we have learnt in school is that the first part of silk route started from Beijing and went through norther India then afghanistan to uptill istanbul. Then to europe.

2: 42 missed a Chinese city which exported a big portion of silk at the time. Chengdus Shujin has been proven to be at least one of the silk as the name Silk Road suggests.

Whatever happened to the trade route ( kindness for kindness) ( trade one for the same one ) I guess to much money is involved today ( which mean no ancient trade huh

I am highly sceptical about the fact that Sikhism originated from islam. This could be a big blunder. I think they should correct it.
