Rose flower history

 A rose is either a woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa (/ˈroʊzə/),[1] in the family Rosaceae (/roʊˈzeɪsiːˌiː/),[1] or the flower it bears. There are over three hundred species and tens of thousands of cultivars.[citation needed] They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing, or trailing, with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles.[citation needed] Their flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colours ranging from white through yellows and reds. Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwestern Africa.[citation needed] Species, cultivars and hybrids are all widely grown for their beauty and often are fragrant. Roses have acquired cultural significance in many societies. Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height.[citation needed] Different species hybridize easily, and this has been used in the development of the wide range of garden roses.

History of great wall china

  The  Great Wall of China  is an ancient wall in  China . The wall is made of cement, rocks, bricks, and dirt. It was finished in 1878 [1]  and it was meant to protect the north of the  empire  of China from enemy attacks. It is the longest structure humans have ever built. It is about 21,196 kilometers long, 9.1 metres (30 feet) wide and 15 metres high. The earlier sections on the wall are made of compacted dirt and stone. Later in the  Ming Dynasty  they used bricks. There are 7,000 watch towers, block houses for soldiers and beacons to send smoke signals. Later dynasties adopted different policies towards northern frontier defense. The   Han   (202   BC – 220   AD), the   Northern Qi   (550–574), the   Jurchen -ruled   Jin   (1115-1234), and particularly the   Ming   (1369–1644) were among those that rebuilt, re-manned, and expanded the Walls, although they rarely followed Qin's ...
