I'd love to hear more history concerning Chinese history. I don't think enough people learn about World history, and with how prevalent China was/is on the global scale, learning more concerning their history and experiences is a personally exciting venture.

China was not actually prevalent on a global scale until modernity, you could argue the colonization of China made it important for other countries but China itself was a regional player for most of its history.

​@@MustardAndFriesNot exactly.. much of old world history revolves around China, albeit indirectly. From the XiongNu - Huns contributing to the fall of the Romans, to the Mongol invasion and Black Death, to African trade networks, to the European exploration age (in order to find new trade routes to China, circumnavigating the Persians). Globalization itself is a very recent phenomenon, but China's influence on the world is probably the closest thing we've seen.

Not only Confucius, Shang Yang is definitely one of the most important figure in Chinese history. With his legalism policies, he with Qin monarchs had made Qin from a backwater country into the strongest warring state and then finally united China. And Qin Shi Huang is no doubt the greatest emperor in Chinese history because his work had laid a sturdy foundation for Chinese civilization

In fact, from the map, Qin is not the most isolated kingdom. In terms of geographical location, Qin's location is quite ideal. First of all, Qin only needs to guard against Wei in the east. The west and north of Qin are relatively backward. Tribal residents, the south of Qin State is separated from the powerful Chu State by the ancient and neutral Shu State and Ba State. Shu State, Ba State and Qin State have long-term trade cooperation relations, but due to changes in Qin State's economic policy , refused to obtain the rice produced by Shu through purchase, and attempted to control Shu through military power to obtain lower-cost rice, thus opening up the route for Chu to attack Qin. The excessive desire of the king of Qin made Qin Citizens were under great threat and had to embark on a militaristic plan of aggression.

He did but he made two fatal mistakes that ruined all that his clan built. 1. He didn't pick a proper successor. This means the empire will guarantee turmoil when he's dead or temporarily out of power. And that's happening. (He's very paranoid and fears his eldest son because from the record...His eldest son was from the state of chu linage and had many political views that contrasted with his) 2. Use over used his authority. His unification creates a concept of divine authority which during that time no one knew how exactly it worked and what the terrifical outcome it could bring. I mean...Well, labour for one month wasn't bad but the work that guarantees your death before you reach the destination is much more terrifying. In ancient time, people usually died from starvation and sickness when outside that climate. Qin forced relocation of the population to prevent rebellion causing massive casualties among the population, then forcing entire male in the village to travel to some desolate area to die was a big no. And Qin Shi Huang was drunk on his power and did a lot of unreasonable things. Those who can's do it will die but if you can get the emperor favour, you can survive. That's a problem for sure

​@@hidefreek6905u miss the thing is Qin Shi Huang was the FIRST Emperor of united China. And he was undoubtedly making mistakes along the way because there was nothing he could rely on from history. Qin Shi Huang and his court almost built everything from scratches for the united China. But no doubt majority of his policies had worked because China today was built based on his foundation.

That's why caution and patience come in handy. The first yes. But no one dare to challenge him during his reign but what about after that? Build an empire must do step by step. (Like many people said Rome wasn't build in a day) Same as Qin conquest. Qin Shihuang nearly unleashed what his ancestors built upon his enemy. So his role in the conquest was low. Then, what about his administration? Indeed, effective but also not at the same time. In history, Qin Shihuang had very bad upbringing and he himself had mental illness. Born among carnibals, his mother intended to kill him and ruin Qin's destint. His only friend wanted to kill him and his father-in-law betrayed him at the peak of Qin unification of China. All of these affect his mental state during his reign. And he no longer listen to anyone. When the time the people can't talk directly to the leader and must see his face and emotion before anything else. That nation is halfway to its doom already.

okay a slight little (i hope) constructive criticism that came to my mind, the 1st few minutes seem to suggest that the Han ethnic identity was universal to all peoples of the yellow river valley from the get go, which as far as i know was not the case. Han being so dominant is only a later development of politics within the region. I think saying "(...)they started to develop their own ethnicities, chineese ethnicities one of which is (some flowery sentence if u will) Han(...)" and later the video could go on as it does. Imo it would save people that little bit of confusion... but it could just be me. aside from that little thing great video!

Hell, a lot of people now called Han wouldn't have been considered so even as recently as the Qing Dynasty. The very idea of an ethnic Han identity as opposed to a cultural one based on language, education, religion, and lifestyle is largely a late-19th-century nationalist retcon rather than long-established reality.

@@johnlacey3857 Retroactive continuity. A re-explaining of something at a later date. It's a commonly-used word in fandoms for when a franchise changes or clarifies something after the fact in later seasons or movies, especially as a way of smoothing out plot inconsistencies. Nationalists around the world do this when they create narratives of their nations, since no nation period existed before the age of mass literacy and mass transportation. Nations are not the same as cultures or societies or states in general, but rather a specific arrangement of standardised (hence national) institutions across the whole of a state's territory, including a standardisation of language and religion and so on. Saying that one's nation has a proud history extending back thousands of years is a recasting of events in ways that the people who lived through those events would not necessarily understand or agree with.
