Hey Cass! What's up girl? I just wanted to say I love your poster. I love the fact that you used up almost all of the space on the poster and it had a clear, legible key. If I were to make one suggestion, it would be that you should've made larger images for each theme. For example your river, it is great don't get me wrong, but if it were larger and maybe drawn in white it would look SO much better! One of the similarities between China and Mesoamerica is that they were both trade oriented. People in China traded primarily in silk while people in  Mesoamerica primarily with textiles. Another similarity is that both Mesoamerica and China depended on rivers. A difference between these two cultures was that China had wheeled chariots, while people in Mesoamerica didn't rely on wheeled chariots but carried goods on their backs instead. One question that I have for you is how a building represents developments and transformation of social structures. But other that, love your poster!
