== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Evaluating</span> == Evaluating the Silk Road: # '''The "Great Man" Myth''': Was it "Marco Polo" who connected the world, or was it the "Millions of unknown merchants" who did the real work? # '''The Biological Cost''': Was the Silk Road "Worth it" if it brought the "Black Death" that killed 50 million people? # '''Inequality''': Did the Silk Road only benefit the "Kings and Queens" who wore the silk, or did it make life better for the "Peasant" in the field? # '''Eurocentrism''': Why do we call it the "Silk Road" (a name invented by a German in 1877) rather than the "Jade Road" or the "Spice Road"? </div> <div style="background-color: #2F4F4F; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
