Features: The Qin Dynasty, for today's Chinese people, seems very distant. A dynasty from over two thousand years ago feels like an immeasurable distance away, its dust having experienced countless cycles! However, when we see the Great Wall stretching across the mountains, it feels as if this dynasty is very close, as if it were just yesterday. We then recall the grand feat of Qin Shi Huang unifying China, but also remember his "burning of books," "burying scholars alive," his tyrannical rule, and even the tragic mythological tale of "Meng Jiangnu Weeping Over the Great Wall." History often bears striking similarities. Some researchers suddenly discovered that the current global political landscape is remarkably similar to the Warring States period in China, where the seven states vied for dominance, with Qin eventually becoming the sole superpower, conquering the six other states and unifying the empire. In other words, the current global political landscape is essentially an amplification of the political of the Warring States period on a global scale, as the trend of globalization among humans becomes increasingly evident. This book reflects on the history of the Qin Dynasty against the backdrop of history, revealing the opportunities for historical development and change through the words and deeds of historical figures. It is a popular read suitable for people of all ages.
