What exactly was China before the Qin Dynasty unified it?

280 viewsOther

Just curious. I understand that he was the first Chinese emperor and the one who conquered the whole thing and created a unified China, but what was that region, exactly, before it was unified? Was it, like, individual city-states? A bunch of tiny kingdoms? Or just sort-of provinces of one large country?

Like most other places; there would have been different independent city states or loosely defined nations

We see this history repeated throughout the globe at earliest parts of known human history

Tribes form; tribes expand and either conquer/kill, conquer/enslave or conquer/assimilate. Then this just scales up
