The Tang dynasty is closely associated with the Sui, and are often discussed as the same dynasty. This specific dynasty lasted from 618-907 A.D. Much of the power was made possible through the canals built by the Sui. These canals were helpful for communication to all parts of the empire. The canals were also used to transport goods from the south to the north. These canals were important in the economic development of the Tang empire. The administration was composed of four main departments; A Department of State Affairs, and Imperial Chancellory, an Imperial Grand Secretariat, and a Council of State. The Tang Dynasty also made many advances. They first compiled the Tang code in 624 A.D This is the first complete Chinese code that still exists. This event effected China because it continued to follow the written set of penalties that are applied based on the crime and the degree of relation between the criminal and the offended person.
