                                        Intorduction





                         How do you think China started? How this country was united? This is how China became China.

                                         The First Emperor of China


                         On 259 B.C   the emperor of China was born,Qin Shi Huang.  According to the artcile on Live Science this emperor took his powers to far . He forced his people to make an army of terra cotta clay . This took 36 years  to complete and 700,000 were made, no face the same . During that time emperor was taking his powers to far, and his people tryed to kill him . However , Qin Shi escaped these murders . As years past, the grew older hoping for a ruler after his death. On September 10th 210 B.C Qin Shi Huang died.Then his people decided to smash the army to pieces . 36 years over hard work went down the drain

                                         Personal Thoughts 


                 Honestly, I would of hated to work for that emperor if I lived back then. According to a video on our class blog this emperor drug some of his people and buried them alive! Also he forced his people to make an army out of clay , which   took 36 years. Think about how sore your hands would be, and no choice to do it or you could have been killed. Do you know whats funny to me ? The way the army was found. A group of farmers were digging for wells and then found human size clay figures . It's was strange this happened .
I wish China had a better emperor .

  1. I like how you placed your top ten facts about China. One thing that you could have done is that you could have also put some facts about Qin Shi Huangdi. One thing that you could fix is the size of your headings.
