In 221 BC, Qin Shi Huang achieved great unification after destroying the Six Kingdoms and established China's first feudal dynasty. As China's first great unified dynasty, the Qin Dynasty had an absolute influence on Chinese history. His reunification was a turning point in China's history, ending china's centuries-long division since the Spring and Autumn Period, allowing the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and creating a new situation of reunification.
Since the unification of the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shi Huang has devoted himself to the development of the country, and has implemented measures such as the same book and text, the same track of the car, and the unified weights and measures to achieve domestic integration. Externally, measures such as attacking the Xiongnu in the north, conquering Baiyue in the south, and building the Great Wall to repair water canals laid the political structure of the Qin Dynasty. Although qin shi huang's brutality during his reign made him highly criticized by future generations, his brilliant achievements made him deserved to become an emperor in Chinese history.
At this time, Qin Shi Huang gave the East absolute influence, what about the rest of the world at the same time? What are they doing?
First, let's look at Russia, a country along europe. For the impression of Russia, because of its rich experience in war, and the explosive power of war that has been developed along the way, Russia has always been known as a fighting nation. However, when the Qin Dynasty was in its glory, Russia had not yet shown its fighting national side. Historical records record that it originated in the Grand Duchy of Moscow at the end of the 15th century AD, and established the Russian Empire in 1721. That is to say, before the end of the 15th century, Russia was not an independent political system, and further back, by the third century, Russia was actually a primitive society.
Second, let's look at Japan and India, which are also Asian countries. According to sources, Japan formally established the Yamato regime in the 4th century AD, and formally established the emperor system after the Daiwa Reformation. What about Japan before the establishment of the Yamato system? They belong to a primitive society like Russia?
According to the records, Japan entered the Yayoi era in the third century, because of the influence of China and the Korean Peninsula, Japan at this time had an agriculture based on rice cultivation, and began to use copper and iron. In other words, Japan in the third century had just transitioned from a primitive society to an agrarian society.
India, as opposed to Russia and Japan, has established a regime, the Peacock Dynasty. This dynasty promoted the development of Indian religion, and Buddhism gradually flourished in India. However, although the dynasty went through its heyday, after the death of the third emperor, Ashoka, the Peacock Dynasty began to decline, and later split into several countries.
Finally, let's look at what stage the countries of the African period were in. Although the first impression of Africa now is that it is slow and poor. But at that time, when Africa was still a primitive society in Europe, several great powers had emerged, of which Carthage was the most powerful. However, at this time, Carthage was still in constant war, often threatened by the Roman Empire, and eventually conquered by it.
