China: Han dynasty (206)

Thursday noon: open China at the reading room. China keeps the year 206. China keeps the line “Han dynasty”. China keeps the figure 206. On the notebook, China shows 206 first. Next to China, the figure stays 206. Under China, leave “Han dynasty”. China is read again after one place. In the evening, China returns to 206.

China is the 206 record “Han dynasty”, and the figure beside it is 206. This week, read one item from one region, and do not gather several regions onto one scoreboard. Keep only figures of language, population, or movement, and do not write a grade of a group. This week, write only that region’s name, the year, and the figure in the notebook, and read them as a record of a place where people live.
