Before 221 B．C,
there were many vassal states in China that often launched wars. Their inhabitants
lived in chaos as the states fell apart．You
can know the name of Seven Warring States from the online Chinese lesson were
the Han2，Zhao4，Wei4，Chu3，Yan1，Oi2，and
Qin2 dynasties of the seven，the Qin State
was eventually declared the victor withYing2 Zheng4 as their leader. Ying2 Zheng4
became the first emperor of China，and was given the
title of first emperor. From 230 to 221 BC，Ying2 Zheng4 launched
a massive war，destroying
the other’s states．This time in Chinese
history is known as the Qin Eradicate the Six States period. Following 221 BC,
one country was established for the first time in China’s history and was ruled
bya uniform, multinational，and centralized
power called the Qin Dynasty (221—206 B．C．Ying2
Zheng4 believed that is contributions exceeded more than the ancient Three
Sovereigns＆Five
Emperors so he proclaimed himself the
first emperor.
After first unifying
China，he
implemented a series of laws and changes to society in order to maintain the
unification of the Qin2 Empire where much power was entrenched in feudal
systems of The First Emperor of China—Ying2 Zheng4 who was also a historical
figure known by many students studying in Chinese online lessons. The
First Emperor abolished feudalism and imposed a new national government In
order to avoid the insurgence of civilians．he ordered all weapons
confiscated by the empire to be destroyed by melting or burning．To withstand
invasions from minority factions，the First Emper or
implemented a great deal of manpower，material，and
financial resources to build the Great Wall, not to mention the great deal of time
it took．Currently
the Great Wall still rests on its original foundation，and
the subsequent repairs were made on top of the original wall The Great Wall is
an extraordinary feat of human beings and a symbol of China．To control
the thought of the citizen，the First
Emperor executed the policy of burning the books，burying the Confucians．In
addition，the
laws were nationalized，weights and
measures
mandated，and
currency standardized．
Among the
Emperor’s laws，one
important regulation was implementing the same characters，the
same road width policy．Before the unification，each state used
different styles with which to write，making it very
inconvenient to communicate Therefore after the unification，the
First Emperor Qin ordered the states to use the same character and same track
gauge．In
our Chinese lesson
online, we read it as shu1 tong2 wen2, che1 tong2 gui3. Under
the so-called same road width policy a government standard was created for the width
of roadways，and
relay stations for post horses were constructed throughout the country along
the roadways in order to allow for better communication between states．The
roads built before unification varied in size，making it
difficult for vehicles to pass. As a result the emperor decreed that the same width
roads are to be built all over the country，limiting the
axle length of carriages to six feet wide．In this way, the
vehicles could travel on every road．One could say that
this is China’s oldest form of a postal service．
In short, the
policies of Qin Emperor，especially the same characters，same
road width policy，established a firm foundation, maintaining a unified
China for over 2000 years. OK, that is all for today’s Chinese history
knowledge on Chinese lessons
online where you will find the same kind of history story
as much as possible.
