The three early dynasties in the Chinese history (Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasty) are collectively referred as the San Dai (三代, sān dài), meaning 'the three generations'. The term 'three generations' (三代) was first used in 'The Analects of Confucius' 《论语·卫灵公》. The term continued to the Warring States Period, referring to Xia, Shang, and Western Zhou Dynasty. After the Qin Dynasty (秦朝), the meaning of 'three generations' began to include the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (东周). The book, Chinese History 2, a Chinese reading practice book, presents a broad and simple overview of the San Dai, three early ruling dynasties (夏朝, 商朝 and 周朝).
