Chinese Dynasties, years

  1. Jin Dynasty, 1115 - 1234
  2. Xia Dynasty (21st century BC–17th century BC)
  3. Qing Dynasty, 1644-1912
  4. Ming Dynasty, 1368 to 1644
    (You rarely see their contemporary rulers commemorated in a Habsburg Palace or Plantaganet Gardens, but I think every town I’ve ever lived in had a Chinese place with Ming in the names.)

Topics like “Teams that won the Stanley Cup” aren’t very interesting.
