Which dynasty is known for implementing an equal-field system and a merit-based bureaucracy?

  1. Song Dynasty

  2. Tang Dynasty

  3. Ming Dynasty

  4. Yuan Dynasty

The correct answer is: Tang Dynasty

The Tang Dynasty is known for implementing an equal-field system and a merit-based bureaucracy. During the Tang Dynasty, the equal-field system allocated land to individuals based on their needs and capabilities, which helped reduce wealth inequality and promote social stability. The merit-based bureaucracy allowed individuals to obtain government positions based on their skills and abilities rather than their family background or social status. This system of governance helped the Tang Dynasty to flourish economically and culturally during its reign.
