Thus, geographic connectedness and only modest internal barriers gave China an initial advantage.
North China, South China, the coast, and the interior contributed different crops, livestock, technologies, and cultural features to the eventually unified China.
For example, millet cultivation, bronze technology, and writing arose in North China, while rice cultivation and cast-iron technology emerged in South China.
For much of this book I have emphasized the diffusion of technology that takes place in the absence of formidable barriers.
