2. The Chinese had emperors. What the emperors were was a very well treated king. If someone disobeyed what he said, it would be off with his head. He can tell you what to do, so do it or you will be at your funeral the next day.

3. Qin Qin invented a lot of things like the Great Wall and the Terra Cotta Warriors. Qin was very honored and barely disobeyed. He was the third emperor of China. He made a lot of inventions, like I said but Qin made the inventions for a very good use, like the Great Wall was build to protect the territory of China for when people try to attack. For example Ghengis Khan, he attacked the great wall at least 100 times to steal all kinds of goods from china but it didn’t work because the Great Wall still kept on stopping him again and again. Qin would barley be lazy and do nothing but most of the time he would start and finish all of his work.

4. The After Life Protectors Qin invented the Terra Cotta Warriors. He made the Terra Cotta Warriors to protect him in the afterlife. The people in china believed that when an emperor dies you put all the kinds of goods around the emperor’s body, just like ancient Egypt did to the pharos. The thing about the Terra Cotta Warriors is that there weren’t only warriors, there were also acrobats and musicians so that in the emperor’s afterlife he wouldn’t only attack with warriors and to also have some fun.
