China’s Great Emperor?

Qin Shi was a powerful man that united all of China in 221 BCE and became the first emperor of China. An amazing feat was it?

Als also, when he used slaves, why did he not give them good food and tents/ houses? So, I can infer that Qin Shi Huang Di built the Great Wall for himself. He wanted to be famous (even to the other side of earth) and he wanted more protection so he could relax and have

China: People ' s Republic of China and China Essay

Until the 20th century China’s history was characterized by dynastic cycles – long periods of rule by a family punctuated by times of “chaos”, when the family lost its power and was challenged by a new, and ultimately successful, ruling dynasty.
