The Great Wall of China provided protection on many fronts in the progress of culture and the development of the nation's economy.
In the terms of the nation's economy, the Great Wall of China safeguarded the Silk Road which was the main land route connecting Asia and Europe. Because of the valuable goods transported across the Silk Road, merchants were vulnerable to attacks by bandits. The Great Wall of China provided protection against bandits that would attempt to steal such expensive goods.
Historically, the Great Wall of China is just as old as the nation's history itself. Under future dynasties, the Great Wall of China was either rebuilt or extended. The Great Wall of China in length exceeds 50,000 kilometers.
