China was a world leader in science and technology until the Ming Dynasty. Ancient Chinese discoveries and inventions, such as papermaking, printing, the compass, and gunpowder, later became widespread in Asia and Europe. Chinese culture has long emphasized a sense of deep history and a largely inward-looking national perspective.
