Building physical barriers is when towns and cities in India had very tall walls to keep out from foreign invaders. Diplomacy is whereby kings befriend a king of a different country to build up on their relationship, as, when they are friends, they will not be attacked by its allies. Developing advanced weapons, is when ancient Chinese made more advanced weapons, an example is, Mechanical Flame-thrower.

(a)External threats refers to possible dangers that come from outside the country,for example, foreign invasions.
(b)They are the foreign invasions and the territorial expansion which was another kind of interaction between people of different civilisations.Foreign invasions could not always be avoided and people suffered when their kingdoms or empires were invaded.Rivalry between Indian Kingdoms is also one of them. Indian was divided into many kingdoms,with each kingdom ruled by a different king.These kingdoms were involved in almost constant rivalry with one another.An example was the constant fighting between kingdoms in the southern part of India.
(c)Measures taken against external threats are the kings of ancient India responded to possible invasions in several ways.These methods served not only to prevent foreign invasions,but also to DEFEND or PROTECT their kingdoms against such invasions when they occurred.They are building physical barriers and armies, diplomacy and integration.Building physical barriers and armies are all the towns and cities in ancient India had very tall walls to keep out foreign invaders.In order to let diplomacy to form friendships or alliances,an Indian kingdom would not be invaded by its allies,the kingdoms and empires it was friendly with.These friendships also allowed allies to invade their common enemies. Integration are most foreign invaders accepted and followed the ancient Indian's lifestyle by learning Sanskrit and adopting Hinduism.So,the people of ancient India accepted these foreigners into their society and gave them a class ranking,normally that of kshatriyas.

(a)What do you understand by external threats?
- External threats are possible danger that comes from outside a particular kingdom or empire. It is usually in a form of foreign invasions. For example, when Xiongnu, one of the most feared nomadic tribe, tried to invade the northwest China during the Han period. (202 BCE – 220 CE)
(b)Describe two external threats faced by ancient Indian or Chinese societies?
- Two external threats faced by the ancient Indian society would be foreign invasions and the rivalry between Indian kingdoms. One example of foreign invasion is the Khyber Pass in the northwest of ancient India. An example for the Rivalry between Indian kingdoms would be when the kingdoms in the southern part of India fought against each other because if they won the war, they would get to control the southern part of India which was the centre of trade. Thus whomever that controls it would have much wealth for their kingdom.
(c)Explain three measures taken by the ancient societies to respond to the external threats
- The ancient Indians built physical barriers and armies, they applied diplomacy and integration. As for the ancient Chinese they formed a tribute system, built physical barriers armies and also developed advanced weapons. For example, during the Qin dynasty (221-206 BCE) hundred of thousands of people were forced to leave their families and homes for years to build the “Great Wall”. Which is a physical barrier against the Nomads. They worked for long hours without pay. Many of them also died and were buried in the clay inside the wall. In India the town and cities had very tall walls to keep out foreign invasions. Enormous wooden walls with 64 gates and 572 watchtowers surrounded, Pataliputra, the capital of the Mauryan Empire during the 3rd century BCE.
