The Novel
Dawn of Civilization (文明破晓) is a Chinese web novel by 绯红之月 (Crimson Moon), serialized on Tadu Literature starting in 2022. It reached #1 on Tadu's new book popularity rankings.
The novel asks a simple question: what happens when a rising China gains enough economic and military power to challenge the old imperial order? It explores the process of dismantling colonialism and imperialism, and imagines a new framework for global cooperation.
"From a macro-historical perspective, Western civilization has fundamental defects. This world needs a more advanced form of human civilization."
Dawn of Civilization was removed from commercial platforms in China. This translation exists to preserve access to the work in English.
