Qin Dynasty
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Qin Dynasty ruled in China from 221 BC to 206 BC. It was created by the warlord Shang Yang during the Warring States Period and defeated several other states in the area to unite China. While the Qin ruled China for only a very short time, they built both the Terracotta Army and parts of the Great Wall of China. The Qin Dynasty was overthrown by a popular rebellion after the first Qin emperor died.
