If you grow a lot of flowering plants in your bedroom

In recent years, with the steady improvement in people's living environment, flowering plants are grown in bedrooms to make them cozy and noble.

But it is not good for our health.

It is well known that flowering plants, like other plants, have two functions - photosynthesis and respiration.

Plants only photosynthesize under sunny conditions, when they absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

But at night with no light, they suck oxygen back and release carbon dioxide.

Therefore, it is advisable not to grow too many flowering plants in the bedroom.

The Paleolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Ages

The Paleolithic Age is the earliest era of human history with the rude stone implement, a stone-cracked tool, as the main means of production.

The Neolithic period is the Stone Age, from the beginning of the use of masonry and earthenware, a grinded stone tool, to the time before the use of working tools made up of bronze and other metals.

The Bronze Age is the period when people used bronze, which was a compound of copper, tin, lead, etc. to make tools, weapons and accessories.

Typical bronze tools include daggers, axes, bows, and personal ornaments, etc.

The development of the productive forces by bronze tools not only led to the first major division of labor in the history of human society separating agriculture and pastoral farming, but also to its second division separating the bronze-manufactured craft industry from agriculture and pastoral farming into an independent production sector.

“Ban 8”, the written law in Ancient Joson

“Ban 8” is the written law of Ancient Joson, the first powerful centralized slave state established in our country and it is a precious national heritage showing the social development of the period. The law is divided into written and unwritten laws according to whether it is written or not.

Along with the establishment of the Ancient Joson state, the law had been expressed in many cases in the form of unwritten law, but gradually it began to adopt the form of written law, and the typical law is " Ban 8". "Ban" means prohibition of violation, and “Ban 8” means eight items that should not be committed. All the contents of the "Ban 8" are not conveyed, but only three of them are conveyed, as follows:

- Killer is promptly executed to death.

- The man who hurt others shall compensate with grain.

- A man who stole another's thing shall be servant.

If the man who stole another's thing wants to remove the disgrace, he must pay 500 000 Won.

In “Ban 8”, the punishment regulation for the murderer, the compensation regulation for the injurer, and the servant provision for the thief, were all provisions for protecting the interests of the slave-owner class, defending their privileged position and rights, and suppressing the resistance of slaves and ordinary people.
