I think it would be a helpful addition if this article included the modern place names (e.g. I think Chang'An is Xi'an).

Would also be useful to use the more modern Chinese transliteration (I'm fairly certain the Ch'in dynasty is now known as the Qin - although the 'Q' _is_ pronounced 'Ch') as that's what you'll find in China!

The heading of each dynasty contains alternative transliterations (at least they did when I wrote it).
