Its 220 BC and we just got word from China's first emperor Ying Zheng or Qin Shi Huangdi that we have to start constructing the Great Wall. At first we had no clue how great Great was. I questioned him
Q- Whats the main purpose of connecting all of theses walls, and have no walls around the south.
A- The main purpose was to provide a defence against descendants of Genghis Khan and the Mongols. We have no wall allong our south border because there is no threat and need to build one.
To make the Great Wall we had to connect a lot of smaller but still large walls of the northern states of China. During the process my uncle and a couple of his friends died so we had to bury them in the wall. The great wall has improved greatly over time, it went from a wall of mud, to using sticky rice to glue bricks together and to put up guard towers. This is important because its the greatest defensive stucture ever built. And a great place for tourists to learn abouts China's history.
