The pre-historic period of our country is divided into three parts, the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, and the Iron Age. The Stone Age is divided into two periods, the Paleolithic period and the Neolithic period.

At the Paleolithic period, everyone was equal and everyone did the same thing – hunt for food. The people used rocks to attack animals. They also got berries from trees. However, when they ate all the fruits and animals near their cave, they always moved. Suddenly, a person dropped a seed and discovered farming. After this fantastic discovery, the Neolithic period started.

At the Neolithic period, besides farming, people raised animals to get eggs, milk, and meat. Even though there was a very bad point in that. After people started to farm and raise animals, the amount of food was increased and there appeared the class of people. People with lots of food became a high class, and the people with a little amount of food became a low class.

That is how the Bronze Age and Gojoseon started. People in the high class want to have something to represent them. That is bronze. Some high class people wanted more land, so they attacked other high class people. People who survived until the last made Gojoseon.

Under King Dangun¡¯s great leadership, Gojoseon became the strongest country in Western Asia along with the Han dynasty in China. Feeing danger, Han attacked Gojoseon with a giant amount of soldiers. Wanggum castle, the capital of Gojoseon, fell to the Han at B.C. 108. The historical empire with 2,225 years finally destroyed. Even though, there were many countries after Gojoseon, no other country is stronger and longer than Gojoseon. Hooray for Gojoseon!
