When twill the History Channels drama “Chinas First Emperor” air?”
Starts tomorrow! Tuesday, August 05 01:00 AM Saturday, August 09 09:00 PM Sunday, August 10 01:00 AM I must have missed out on China history classes, as I’ve never heard of Chin Shi Huang Di, who this drama is about. But I am familiar withe famous remains of his dynasty, the Great Wall of China and the Terracotta Warriors. Just never had a name to connect to them! “He would become an emperor more powerful than Napoleon, capture more territory than Alexander the Great and create the largest army the world has ever seen. In 240 B.C. Chin Shi Huang Di, ruler of the Qin Kingdom, rose to power, defeated six states and created an empire that would lay the groundwork for modern day China. Learn about the life and times of this unique leader and see what still remains of the Qin Dynasty today–from the Great Wall of China to the army of 8,000 life-sized terracotta warriors and horses that guard his empire in the afterlife.” Rating:
