The Middle EastĪnother great state whose end is fast approaching is the Parthian empire, which has ruled much of the Middle East for the past 300 years (though without the stability of the Roman and Han empires). Their state plays a major role in global history by acting as the base for the spread of Buddhism to China and East Asia. The Kushanas have succeeded the Scythians in ruling a huge empire stretching from central Asia into India. In due course they will reappear in history as attackers of the Roman empire under their fearsome king, Attila. One group of Huns, refusing Chinese overlordship, has moved westward. The Han empire still dominates eastern central Asia, despite its internal weaknesses. The Chinese Han empire, however, is already in steep decline, and will not last for much longer. The appearance of Roman merchants in south Chinese ports shows the strength of trade links between different parts of the Eastern Hemisphere by this time. It has given its inhabitants two centuries of almost unbroken peace, and so, like the Han dynasty in China, ranks as one of the longest periods of peace in world history.
