-'''Qin''' was the name of a people and a state in ancient [[China]].  They lived in the [[Wei Valley]] of eastern China that conquered rival states until they had created the first Chinese Empire (the [[Chi'in dynasty]] from 221 to 206 B.C.)  The Qin ruler, [[Shi Huangdi]] standardized many aspects of Chinese society and ruthlessly marshalled subjects for military and construction projects.  This engendered hostility that led to the fall of his dynasty shortly after his death.
