The Great Walls of China

The Great Wall of China is famous in North America, and many tourists would like to travel there.

However, most North Americans don't know very much about Chinese history.

That is changing now, as China is becoming an important subject for study in the West.

The settled communities of China were targets for nomadic raids since earliest times.

For much of its early history, China was not fully unified.

However, Shi Wang, who died in 210 BC, united the whole country.

Then he set about defending China from the northern nomads.

It seems likely there have been defensive walls in the north before.

However, Shi Wang had a wall constructed across the entire north of China.

This defensive wall extended for almost 2,000 miles and had 25,000 towers.

Such walls were very expensive to build.

They also required huge numbers of men to construct them and later to defend them.

Even so, the Great Wall did not stop nomadic invasions altogether.

Not long after Shi Huang's death, a tribe called the Huns crossed the wall.

The emperor, Hu Ti, who expanded Chinese power beyond the wall, defeated them.

Centuries later, the Mongols to the north of China were united under Genghis Khan.

The Mongols attacked China, and Kublai Khan, grandson of Genghis,

became the first non-Chinese emperor of China in 1279.

Eventually, the Chinese were defeated.
