QIN MADE IT EASY
Emperor Qin has gone through all the states and is telling them to follow his system which is all the same. Right now, all the states have their own language which will take too long to learn if you are on a short business trip. They also have their own measurement system which will be tricky to learn if you don’t know how they do math in that state. And all the states have different currency so you would have to change the type of money you are holding everywhere you go. Emperor Qin is making life easier by changing the system in all the states.
Qin would go into every state and every school to make sure that the teachers are teaching his system. If other states had there own philosophy like Confucianism or Dioaism he would make all follow one philosophy which is Legalism so that everyone can follow the same beliefs. And to stop the teachings of other philosophy's he burned all non-Legalist books.
On the other hand, some places might like the way they talk, the way they measure, or how they count money. Someone could have been speaking their native language for many generations when someone just comes into their village and tells them they can’t speak it anymore because they have a new way to speak. This opposing opinion is wrong because you shouldn’t have to learn a new language or change the money you’re holding for every time you go to a different state.
That’s why Emperor Qin made everything that same changing the Chinese Culture so that everybody doesn’t go through this. But he should change how the law is made and how everyone should act.
