Qin Shihuang was born in 259 BC, whose real name was Zhao. His name is Zheng, and he is the son of King Xiang of Qin Zhuang. He is also a famous politician, strategist and reformer in the history of China, and a political figure who achieved national reunification.
After Qin Shihuang swept the six countries to complete the great cause of reunification, he felt that calling himself king could not show his great achievements, so he became emperor. Since then, Qin Shihuang has claimed to be the monarch in China, the first emperor in the history of China, and was later named the first emperor by the world.

After Qin Shihuang completed the unification of the six countries and successfully proclaimed himself emperor, he thought that even Yao and Shun would be ashamed of what they had done, which ranked first among the kings.
Like him, no king ever made such a reform, but Qin Shihuang did it. Thought of here, Qin Shihuang was even more proud. However, Qin Shihuang only saw his own cleverness and boldness of vision, but did not see his own coldness and extravagance.
Since the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, although many actions of the first emperor were forward-looking, his unkindness to the people caused people's dissatisfaction. Under the control of such a monarch, the newly established Qin Dynasty was like a galloping carriage.
It seems to be running very fast and fierce, but it is actually heading for the abyss. Qin Shihuang, who thought his achievements far exceeded those of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, was still eager to take the elixir of life even after being cheated again and again.
In this way, a generation of kings were famous before their death, but they were stinking after their death. The Qin dynasty, which lasted only fifteen years, was like a big house built of unqualified building materials, which collapsed when pushed.
