They didn't need to import much else because some of the people they conquered gave them goods. The Gupta Empire traded Indigo and timber. Indigo took about 300,00 snailsto make, so it was in high demand. The Han empire prospered on the trade of silk. They were the only ones who knew how to make it, so it was a closely guarded secret. The trade routes in China wereeven known as the "silk roads" Arabia traded cinnamon. This was not a common spice so many countries probably tried to exchange goods for it. The Persians traded pearls.They were a luxury item, whichonly the rich could afford.
