The Qin dynasty was the dynasty that unified China after the warring states period. Throughout Chinese history, the dynasty was known for its aggressive rule under the Legalist system. Some people believe it lasted for only about 1 generation because of its harsh rule and showed no mercy(for example who broke the law would be executed (they did a lot of things like improve the great wall, built irrigation systems... all through conscript labor). These were all factors that caused unrest among the people, which led to a revolution.
