For over a century, the Tang Dynasty’s military campaigns and imperial bureaucracy ran on credit provided by Sogdian merchants. This episode explores how Feiqian, an early form of bill of exchange, allowed the empire to project power across Eurasia without moving heavy silver. We trace the rise of An Jia, a Sogdian general whose family controlled the financial arteries of Chang’an, and examine the intricate web of debt and loyalty that bound Central Asian traders to the Chinese court. From the Zeravshan valley to the capital’s western markets, we uncover how commerce became the silent engine of one of history’s most powerful empires. #SogdianMerchants #TangDynasty #Feiqian #AnJia #SilkRoadTrade #Changan #CentralAsiaHistory #AncientFinance #BillOfExchange #Samarkand #Zeravshan #KangSenghui #EurasianTrade #HistoricalBanking #MilitarCredit #FexingoHistory #History #AncientCivilization Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
