User blog:MCMadnessERB/King Gilgamesj vs. Yu the Great

Hello

I am creating a rapseries and still practising. I start with a rap battle between the mystical king Gilgamesh of Uruk (Mesopotamia) vs. the mystical Yu the Great of China.

Gilgamesh was a king that defeated monsters and went on a quest to escape death. The legends say he ruled aorund 2750 before Christ, and there are many versions of his adventures. His story influenced many legends, like that of Odyseus, Jesus Christ and Noach.

According to Chinese legends, Yu the Great was the first ruler of the mystical Xia-Dynasy and ruled around 2100 before Christ. China's Yellow RIver brought a lot of disaster and pain, so Yu thought the Chinese how to control the river. However, he worked so hard that he completely ignored his family.



I wondered if there are people who want to help me write my raps (i habe to practice) and who are interested in joining my series. I will follow humankind's history form the beginning till the present, starting with this battle in which two legendary kings battle eachother. I chose these two because China and the Middle East where the ''core' of the Earth, where the Neolithisch Revolution first took place. Every wealthy nation today is somehow connected to these two areas.''



If you have any questions about history, ask me!
