Long, long ago before China was what it is today a smart, powerful  ruler named Qin Shi Hung was Emporer of China. At first Qin Shi Huang was an excellent ruler. He had many ideas and made many things he was very brave, confident, and strong. Until one day he became upsest with immortality. Every thing he did was to help benefit him in the "after life."

Clay Army

Qin Shi Huang wanted people to accompany him in the after life. So he decided to build a huge clay army including 8,000 clay sodiers Archers, Calverey, Charrioteers, and Foot Soldiers. He and 700,000 workers worked on this huge clay army for over 36 years. No two faces of the soldiers were alike. He made them to guard his tomb. The army also included over 650 clay horses.

Qins People

Qin was hated by many people because of his harsh rules. In the National Geographic video it talked about how Qin sacraficed many people. Some as a punishment and some so they could be with him in the after life. Many people tried to kill Qin because they really hated his ways of ruling.

Qins Achievments

Even though Qin was kind of crazy he did have many achievments.In the National Geographic video it says hes the one who standarized Chinese writing. That means everybody was writing a different way but Qin made one way to write. He also commisioned the first wall of the Great Wall of China. That means he got the idea of making the Great Wall of China and gave someone the power to do it.
