Who Built the Great Wall and Why
The "Long Wall" has a long history — more than two thousand three hundred
2,300 years. It was built in different areas by different states/dynasties to
protect different territorial borders.
Who Built the Great Wall, and When?
It's often said that the First Emperor of Qin built the Great Wall. Actually he
was not the first to build it.
Why the Great Wall Was Built
To prevent invasion
To protect Silk Road trade
In the Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor of Qin inked the northern walls to
prevent invasion from northern nations. In the Han Dynasty, the emperors
extended the Great Wall far into today's western China to protect Silk Road
trade.
How the Great Wall was Built

The majestic Great Wall was built with wisdom, dedication, blood, sweat, and
tears. Families were separated, and many workers died and were interred as
part of the Great Wall itself.
Workers: soldiers, peasants, rebels
Materials: stone, soil, sand, brick
Material delivery: by hand, rope, cart, goat
The Great Wall's Structure — Walls, Watchtowers, Fortresses…
A watchtower at the Great Wall
The Great Wall was not just a wall. It was an integrated military defensive
system with watchtowers for surveillance, fortresses for command posts and
logistics, beacon towers for communications, etc.
In the Ming Dynasty the Great Wall was reconstructed to be stronger and
more sophisticated, due to better construction techniques being developed.
The wall body: The Ming Great Wall usually had battlements 1.8 meters (6
feet) high with loopholes and crenels, and parapet walls 1.2 meters (4 feet)
high.
Flanking towers: Every five hundred 500 meters or less (1,640 feet) on the
Great Wall there was a flanking tower allowing defenders to shoot arrows at
attackers at the face of the wall.

Fortresses were built at important/vulnerable access points (passes), such

as Shanhai Pass Fortress, Juyong Pass Fortress, and Jiayu Pass Fortress. There
were many archery windows and gates on the forts. The fortress gatehouses
were the strongest and most impregnable structures on the Great Wall.

New Open World Corporation, held an event where they chose the seven 7
wonders of the world by voting on their page or a telephone number all the
candidates should have a requirements in total were twenty one 21 and the
