Song Dynasty Inventions and Advancements

Porcelain
Compass
Porcelain is not as widely recognized as one of the Song Dynasty's inventions, but it was more of a big deal than one might think. We still use porcelain plates today, and it is very useful for jars and urns.
The compass is another amazing accomplishment, and we also still use an upgraded version of it today. It also helped many sailors and travelers to find their way. This allowed people to travel greater distances without the fear of getting lost.
Woodblock Printing
Woodblock printing made it so that copying books was easier and scribes weren't needed. This greatly reduced the cst of books, and information was spread much quicker than before. This also made it possible for the Song to use paper money.
The Song Dynasty made many inventions, including gunpowder, paper money, porcelain, woodblock printing, tea, the compass, and many others. This affected modern China-and the world-greatly, and changed the course of history.
Tea
Gunpowder
Tea is a delicious drink that is still very popular today. It has many uses, including curing sore throats and colds, and, obviously, to drink for pleasure.
The invention of gunpowder was extremely influential for the Chinese. They used it not only for cannons and guns, but for fireworks.
