Yellow River Valley Civilization
The Shang King ruled from the city of Anyang. The kingdom was divided into territories which were ruled by military rulers.
By Emma Whitfield
By 1500 BCE a line of kings called the Shang dynasty took over the yellow river valley. These rulers built huge tombs and palaces, which opposed to the previous lifestyle of simplicity in the river valley. The Shang king was the main ruler, and anything that he said was carried out by the military leaders and citizens.
