why was the silk road builtwhen?

Question

swag · Answer

Dear Person, it was made a long time ago and it was for trading things like silk.

Me · Answer

The Silk Road was not built, it was a slowly accumulated system of trade routes stretching from China to the Mediterranean. It was not accumulated for any particular reason, or on purpose at all. Merchants merely traded, and paths were eventually intersected.
