Culture
Buddhism
Unified Silla and Tang maintained close ties. This was evidenced by the continual importation of Chinese culture. Many Korean monks went to China to learn about Buddhism. The monk Hyech'o went to India to study Buddhism and wrote of accounts. [1]. Different new sects of Buddhism were introduced by these traveling monks who had studied abroad such as Son and Pure Land Buddhism [2].
Confucianism
A national confucian college was established in 682 and around 750 it was renamed the National Confucian University [3]. The university was restricted to the elite aristocracy.
Woodblock printing
Woodblock printing was used to disseminate Buddhist sutras and Confucian works. During a refurbishment of the Pagoda That Casts No Shadows, an ancient print of a Buddhist sutra was discovered. The print is dated to 751 CE and is the oldest discovered printed material in the world. [4].
Economy
At first, Silla decreased agriculture output tax to 1/10 before unification and assigned tributary payment per town with special products.
