Emperor Qin Shi Huang was born as Ying Zheng. He was the son of the king of Qin state. He succeeded his father's regality when he was 13. He was really aggressive at an early age. He wanted to rule all the states like Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan and Qi by the power of military strenght of the Qin state. Ying Zheng realized his ambition and built the first feudal and centralized empire in Chinese history in 221 BC. This was what we called - the Qin Dynasty (221 BC - 206 BC). Ying Zheng was the first emperor of a united China, so he proclaimed himself Qin Shi Huang. =====
