Opinion/Editorial

The Silk Road was an great accomplishment for the trade between the Chinese and all the other lands that the Silk Road led to. Since the Chinese had such fine silk its trade was very massive and was so popular. The Silk Road sold items from Almonds and Nuts to Weaponry and smelted items. The Silk Road was very tough to go through and many traders never returned from there. Traders coming from desert regions faced the danger of the heat the snakes, the flies etc... Overall you face the danger of fatigue and soon death! Only true hard working traders will go through the treacherous Silk Road.
