{{Distinguish|text=the [[Qing dynasty]], the last dynasty of Imperial China}} [[File:Qin empire 210 BCE.png|thumb|right|Map of the Qin Dynasty]] The '''Qin dynasty''' ruled in [[History of China|China]] from 221 BC to 206 [[BC]] (15 years). It was created by the warlord [[Qin Shi Huang]] during the [[Warring States Period]] and defeated several other states in the area to unite China. The Qin ruled China for only a very short time, during which they built both the [[Terracotta Army]] and parts of the [[Great Wall of China]]. The second, and final emperor, Qin Er Shi, was overthrown by a popular rebellion after the first Qin emperor died. It was followed by the [[Han dynasty]]. The Han dynasty was founded by [[Liu Bang]] in 202 BC. == Other websites == {{Commonscat-inline|Qin Dynasty}} {{Asia-stub}} [[Category:Chinese dynasties]] [[Category:3rd-century BC establishments]] [[Category:3rd-century BC disestablishments]]
