1. Which do you like better, classical India or China, and why?

I think the Chinese invention of the compass was most important.  While I personally use paper constantly, and can’t imagine not have books, which are a result of the printing press, I would still have to say the compass was most important.  It allowed for safer traveling, more exploration, and the discovery of more continents, like America.  Maps of America were found in China and date back earlier than Columbus and Amerigo Vespuci. It is not well known, because it does not fit with many historians neat, tidy view of how history happened.  They are rewriting and editing history to make it fit with their worldview.  Talk about bigoted.
