China Study

In History, we are in China. I was reading today and I came across how China got its name. 

In 300 b.c. there were different rulers called warlords. There were 6 strong warlords. In eastern China, there was a warlord called Qin, ( pronounced " Chin "), Zheng. This ruler had one million people in his army. The other warlords did not like Qin because they thought that they didn't care about reading, art or writing. The army that Qin had was the strongest in all of China. His army conquered the rest of China. He became the ruler of China and Named it....... China

I was also doing Chinese writing today. It is really cool. Anyone who is good at art should try it. I will put pictures on this post.

  3. Isn't it fun learning about other people and places? I also did not know how China got it's name and am amazed about the size of Qin's army in 300BC.
    Chinese would be an interesting and difficult language to learn. Can you imagine how hard it would be to write it not using the alphabet?
    Thanks Winnie.

  4. Very interesting! Chinese writing is very tricky, but it looks like you've done a great job! Did you use a special pen or marker?
